Welcome New Members!

We are always seeking highly qualified professionals or business owners in a wide variety of business categories. Some of those categories would include small business owners, bankers, accountants, contractors, home repair companies, doctors, health professionals, therapists, trainers, business-to-business service providers, web designers, retailers, entrepreneurs, students, and other similar groups.
The Lunch And Learn Referral Club (LLC) only allows one person from each business category to be a member, thereby giving each person an exclusive on referrals for that category. In addition to passing referrals, the members share business advice, strategies, opportunities, and discounts to other members.
By meeting weekly over lunch, members get to know one another personally, become familiar with each others products and services, which in turn builds trust and confidence in reccommending those services to those we know.
The club operates on the principle that by attending and giving referrals to other members that one will in turn receive referrals. We do not keep records of referrals given or received. We understand that some members have less opportunity to find referrals for others. The solution is that by helping these members grow their business, their sphere of contacts will in turn grow and they will, in time, become better able to find referrals for others.
Preferably, only one person from any industry specialty is permitted to attend luncheons, breakfast clubs, or business after-hours, however no one will be discouraged to attend social events, i.e., sporting events, dances, special gatherings, etc.
Attendance is critical to our success. If you cannot attend a weekly or bi-weekly meeting, you may send a substitute and/or visitor to secure your business classification in the group. More than 3 absences within the same month is subject to your classification being reopened.
Participation in the chapter by members is a key to the success of a group. Members can participate by bringing referrals and/or visitors to their chapter. In addition, during each weekly or bi-weekly networking meeting, a member will be selected to educate the group on their business during the 15-20 minute "Learn Segment." You may attend another Lunch & Learn chapter that may be available at anytime.
