“Even with all the advancements in technology and connecting online, face-to-face networking is still vital to anyone who wants to grow a business. At the events, it’s not about making sales. It’s about meeting and getting to know people. People only do business with people they like and trust. The only way to build that trust is through time and knowledge about each other. If it’s fun to do in the meantime, then that’s even better!” – Carolyn Clark
