Enrichment Networking: Business Circle For Women

Are you a quieter, more gentle woman in business who finds traditional networking loud and overwhelming?

If you answered YES to that question then welcome to Enrichment Networking - a brave space where we quieter women solopreneurs can connect, share, and grow together.

If you find traditional networking overwhelming or intimidating, our monthly meetings are created specifically for you.

There's a difference between networking and connecting... networking is about knowing more people... connecting is about knowing people more.

Enrichment Networking is a supportive environment where you can talk honestly about the challenges you face in your business and get the support you need to overcome them. Join us and connect with women who understand the unique challenges of running a business solo.

• Supportive Environment: A calm space where you can share your challenges and successes without the pressure of traditional networking.
• Expert Guidance: Denise (a coach specialising in helping you to melt your stress and anxiety) and Sami (a business coach specialising in helping you to stand out from the crowd), will lead the session, providing insights and guidance.
• Collaborative Problem Solving: Bring your business challenges, and let the group’s collective wisdom help you find solutions.
• Relationship Building: Forge strong connections and relationships with other women in the group. As you get to know each other, you’ll find opportunities to refer business to one another, helping each other grow and succeed.

Whether you're just starting out or have been running your business for years, you'll leave feeling supported, enriched, and connected.

This IS the right group for you if:

• You’re looking for a relaxed way to network and share your business
• You’re looking for a supportive and positive group
• You’re looking to meet other business women experiencing similar issues to you
• You’re looking for small groups where you can get to know others and build connections (we only ever have 10 tickets on sale for any meeting)
• You’re looking for a supportive environment where all judgements have been left at the door in favour of making genuine connections during genuine conversations
• You’re looking for help and knowledge relevant to your business over generalised information from guest speakers, that you may never put into practice

This is not business networking as you know it, and this is NOT the right group for you if:

• You’re expecting to have to “work the room” and chat to everyone in the place
• You’re expecting a large group of people
• You’re expecting to sell, sell, sell yourself and your products or services
• You’re expecting to have business cards foisted upon you when you don’t even know the person handing it to you

• Arrival and refreshments
• Welcome and introduction to Enrichment Networking
• Everybody gets time to share their business - this is not timed, and you can say as little or as much as you want to - some guests might say a couple of sentences, and others might talk for five minutes or more. All is welcome.
• As we go around the table, learning about each person’s business, there is opportunity to ask questions as we go.
• After introductions there is a mini workshop based on the theme and topic of the month

This event is ideal for women solopreneurs who work from home and prefer a networking environment that is supportive, intimate, and pressure-free. If you’re looking for a space where you can be honest, receive support, and build genuine connections, Enrichment Networking is for you.

Registration: Spaces are limited to maintain a calm and supportive atmosphere, so please register early. Tickets are £15 and include refreshments.

We are Denise Oliver and Sami Blackford, co-creators of Enrichment Networking… and we’re both introverts.

As small business owners, we recognise that networking is essential for spreading the word about what we do, and for gaining support from others when we need it… and yet we’ve rarely found that networking works for us or supports our gentler way of interacting with others. We knew we couldn’t be alone in feeling this way, so we created our own group that would do just that.

Sami has been running creative businesses since she was nine years old and now has three decades’ of business experience under her belt. She is a business coach specialising in helping introverted women ditch the pressures of social media and market their business in a gentler (and, in her opinion, more effective) way.

Denise has been in the world of health since she first put on her nurse’s uniform, way back when matron walked the corridors. Unfortunately when seriously ill the NHS couldn’t help her so she then turned to the world of holistic therapies and found herself and her wellbeing there. She is now a resilience coach helping women love themselves and their life by helping them to melt their stress and anxiety as they discover and develop their resilience and adaptability.

We will gather upstairs at Knoops, Northgate Street, Chester, CH1 2HQ

Please come and find us upstairs.

Refreshments will be available at the meeting and are included in the cost of your ticket.
