Some of the Testimonials we've received recently:

I would like to strongly recommend Nicky Brown for all your travel needs. I contacted her regarding a possible trip to abroad and she came back to me quickly with various options. Although I did not use her services this time, I would not hesitate to refer friends and family to her in the future. Nicky Brown - Travel Counsellors
Anne Stennett - Curwens LLP - WIBN Enfield

I visited WIBN Weybridge a few months before I set up my own business. I was nervous and didn't know what to expect. It was a relief when my first contact with WIBN was Lynne Jones, the Surrey Groups organiser, who was warm and welcoming. The meetings are structured, interesting and business focussed. Lynne has the knack of bringing people together within and between her groups and as a result some very successful collaborations have emerged. I think her large corporate background has attracted and kept other members with similar backgrounds. It is a reflection of her leadership style and of the business culture at the meetings that a group of us are now co-authors of an ebook to do with starting up a business and the book provides expert tips. WIBN Weybridge was the platform.

I have had a lot of business directly from WIBN and lots of referrals outside the organisation. The membership subscription has been the best value for money yet and I recouped the outlay very quickly.The business expertise available in the room of about 25 women is huge. What I wasn't expecting, which has been a lovely bonus, are the new friends I have made.

WIBN is a great national networking group and if you are thinking of visiting a group I would encourage you to reserve your spot today. You will not regret it.
Maud Hadden - Follow That Lead - WIBN Weybridge

If you are a local business woman, this networking group is a must. I have been a member since March and I have found this fab group of ladies to be friendly and supportive. I have found also that my confidence has grown in this relaxed environment and I no longer feel nervous when I stand up to give my 60 seconds.I gained business from attending WIBN and I have also made friends. And I always look forward to the meetings.So, if you want to raise the profile of your business and meet like minded business women WIBN is the place to go.
Daliah Hopcroft - 42 Limited - WIBN HItchin

I listened to Maud from 'followthatlead.com' speak at the Weybridge group and was hugely impressed by her confident and knowledgeable presentation on the art of successful Cold Calling. A subsequent One to One meeting with Maud resulted in her taking responsibility for introducing my work to organisations on my behalf; here she not only discovered who I should be speaking to at various places, but she also produced a script for me to follow when I did my own follow up calls to her introductory ones.

I would recommend 'followthatlead' wholeheartedly. Maud has created a professional, efficient and much needed service and one that I will most definitely continue to use. It works!
Liz Kirk - Higher Educational Consultant - WIBN Dorking

I have been a WIBN member for four years and have found it an excellent way to develop strong business contacts.Not only do you discover other professional services which you can use with confidence, it also generates business for you - the value of new custom generated through WIBN has always proved to be a very good return on my membership costs. Building relationships with other professional women and discovering ways to work together is very rewarding too, the meetings are stimulating, with opportunities to share ideas, discuss current challenges and leave feeling ready for anything!
Cass Edwards - Cascade Colour& Style - WIBN Chelmsford

I have been a member of Enfield group for 6 years and Loughton group for 4 years and recently joined the new Hatifled and Welwyn group. I really enjoy networking and especially visiting other groups. The initial meeting can be a little daunting but all the women round the table have been first time visitors at some point and always make a point of welcoming visitors.

Being a member of the WIBN has helped me to grow not only my business but also my confidence as a business woman. The network is an excellent way to build relationships with people who you trust and respect and is a great way to generate contacts. I always come away from meetings and one to ones buzzing with new ideas and enthusiasm.
Claire Fryer - One to Three Marketing Solutions - WIBN Maidenhead

I put a review on last year for WIBN and I'm still here! Now a member for 2.5 years I must say how well Hitchin WIBN has done for us. The ladies not only give great referrals, they have out done any other networking group in terms of business generated. It's also not just a business group but provides useful advice, tips, training and above all support to its members. Ladies if you are in need of meeting like minded souls in a non-pressurised environment to boost you and your business this is can really work for you.

WIBN has been great for business; other members have referred clients to me when they think I can help. Word of mouth is the best recommendation.

Joining WIBN has changed my life for the better in a number of ways. Apart from the obvious benefit to my business, it has also done wonders for my confidence and introduced me to some lovely ladies, many of whom I now regard as friends as well as business contacts.
Janet Horsley - Website Design - WIBN Mill Hill

This group is a friendly and professional way of making sure that our target customers know about us. It is also very supportive with a regular exchange of information and referrals.
Dawn Wills – Decision Marketing - WIBN Hitchin

It was lovely to meet the women of WIBN Guildford today, and really refreshing to take part in a meeting with a group of charming, professional business women who clearly value each other's friendship and business skills. I look forward to meeting you all again next month.
Katrina Gibson - Giving Africa Ltd - (Visitor) WIBN - Guildford

I joined WIBN to give me the experience of talking about my business confidently and to meet & talk to other business women. I have found that the enthusiasm & passion of the Group Leader encourages me to make the most of my membership and WIBN has proved far more beneficial to me and my business than I expected!

It has led to the opportunity to form a strategic alliance with another WIBN member, which allows us to grow both personally and in our businesses. We are launching a new business initiative, strongly supported by WIBN, which will help us both with client lead generation. We are running a workshop in Woking in April 2011 covering how to achieve more inner happiness, how nutrition impacts how you think and how to dress for your shape. If you would like more information please contact me.
Yolanda Earl - Life Coach – WIBN Woking

WIBN is a must for any woman with her own business. I have made great friends, business contacts to discuss ideas with, and learnt a lot about other businesses in the local area. It is not another pushy networking group, but a group of likeminded business women who are always looking out for ways to promote one another. My business has certainly gained thousands of pounds of business from the network.
Susan Stacey – Town Garden Florist - WIBN Hitchin

Joining the WIBN has been such a positive experience for me. I had never "networked" before and totally shrank away from that kind of thing. But it has been absolutely fantastic. It is all organised and run so well and the fact that there is no business clash is key. I've met some fabulous people, and both increased awareness of what I do and the volume of people through my door. It has given me the opportunity to get used to public speaking and, as so many of us are independent businesses, it's incredibly positive to be around other people in a similar situation. I highly recommend the WIBN.

Amanda Weller - Reflexologist -  WIBN Guildford

WIBN is a fantastic/friendly ladies only networking group. I would highly recommend it. Angela Brown – WIBN Hitchin

Since joining WIBN we have been fortunate enough to work with a lot of the ladies we have met. The work has included logos & stationery, flyers & posters, exhibition boards, give away items and more. We have really enjoyed working with all these ladies as the work has been very varied and creative.  We have also involved ourselves in various charity events that other members are running or have held, and this has given us the opportunity to get to know them better, and has in turn opened more doors to more business people and ultimately more business.

WIBN has been fantastic for us and we are extremely pleased to be a part of it.

Karen Bidgood - Graphic Designer – WIBN Bournemouth

I have tried and enjoyed lots of networking groups but WIBN Hitchin is the BEST! It's a very friendly, large group of ladies and it's a great way to do business. Give it a try!
Jo Keshishian – Forever Living Products - WIBN HItchin

When I first joined WIBN, Helen Satherwaite asked in her 1 min if anyone would consider being a volunteer at the St Francis Hospice, I feel extremely lucky doing a job that I love and wanted to give something back, So I volunteered to be a gardener for half day a week, this was over a year and a half ago.

A few months ago the lady who heads up the gardening team asked me what I do for a living – so I told her I created mosaics, she was really excited.

The original garden design had mosaic columns, but the Hospice did not have funds to support this. I was asked to submit some designs, I did, they liked my designs and commissioned me to go ahead.

I am very proud to say that I installed the completed mosaic column last week. They loved it and have now asked me to create 2 more!

Networking can work anytime, from first meetings to many months later, don’t give up if you dont get instant results up because if I had not joined WIBN and met Helen, who introduced me to the volunteer team, I never would have got the chance to promote my business and make a mosaic for such a special place.
Jackie Anwyl - Mosiac Designer – WIBN Berkhamsted

Everyone is so friendly and genuine, a lovely group. Not only do you promote your own business but you get to know professional women that you can really trust and use their services and recommend them to others.
