JB2B HOP 2 Networkers
As there have been numerous requests, Jewish B2B is organizing a smaller, inclusive networking group to assist and encourage businesses to support, share ideas and grow together as they search for and market directly to consumers. The JB2B HOP 2 Networkers will be meeting on a monthly basis. Our networking group is designed for the business professional catering to the consumer market. Please note that our networking group is designed by invitation only and as we start the group, we are limiting participation to one participant each of their respected field only.
The mission of The JB2B HOP 2 Networkers is to help promote our businesses throughout our individual networks. As with any relationship, we meet, get to know each other and feel confident in recommending each other’s products & services. As is Aesop’s fable of The Tortoise and the Hare, our goal is to build long term relationships over time with trust, commitment and integrity. We all strive for business today and sales tomorrow, but the foundation of friendship is built on the layers of time.
The inaugural meeting will be Thursday August 1, 2013 from 7:30 – 9:00am. The meeting will be held is Skokie.
Please email/ RSVP your request to join to by Friday July 26, 2013:
