Networking Makes the World Go Around

Register for the next Group Leader Orientation Livecast on May 30, 2013 at 8PM EST. Learn more.

Networking is about RELATIONSHIP BUILDING…PERIOD! If you’re not about building relationships, it’s not for you. And THIS network isn’t a social networking site or article posting site.

We are a network that promotes EXPERIENTIAL NETWORKING that fosters personal and business growth by interacting live on and offline.

In fact, if you’re looking for another Facebook-type network, monthly feel good teleseminar coaching lessons, video on-demand training, or a place to read articles, this definitely is NOT the place for you. Which is why we’ve chosen to be more exclusive about our networks and tightened the requirements for the privilege and responsibility of being a member.

Connect, Share, Grow, Empower (Repeat)

We get it. You’re tired of showing up month after month to a group of the same people who seem to always be stuck in the same place. You’re tired of being sold to or told that promoting your business is taboo. You’re tired of being part of the same 20% that always participates while the other 80% remain wallflowers sucking in everything shared, without replenishing the brain trust. You’re worried about perpetually being the smartest person in the room.

You are ready to find your people and come together for collaborative greatness. We have a better way to network for those who really want it.

The Empower Me! Networking Clubs are for a special type of person. One who takes their success and relationship building seriously, and acknowledges the common causes we share. One who shares and gives back to others and strives to ensure we collectively succeed. All members are required to participate and be an active member. Sitting on the sidelines is not allowed. Real networking is not about building an online site, fan page or group. It’s about experiencing camaraderie, learning from one another and doing for one another. In short, this ain’t some fancy Facebook Page.

It’s an experiential relationship building group leveraging each other for success and accountability. The Empower Me! brand is all about growth strategies. The only people we want as part of this network are doers looking to connect to grow. Volunteering your time and expertise is also a requirement to ensure everyone is giving and receiving equally. Speak with a Member Specialist for more details.

ABOUT MEMBERSHIP

Networking is a truly personal experience, and levereageable networks are a valuable asset that everyone should have as part of their professional development & net worth toolkit. Membership is available to men and women (pending application approval). Before joining any network you have to start with one basic question:

What do I need from a network?

Once you know what you’re looking for, it’s that much easier to determine if a network is right for you, and can meet your expectations. Not all networks are created equal and not all provide much value in return for your membership dollars. If you don’t understand your end goal, you waste time jumping from network to network unfulfilled. You should join a network where its members will push you to be better than your best. Where each person is committed to growth and they hold you accountable to reach those growth goals. Where they stand with you each step of the way to make sure that everyone succeeds. Where just being around like minds makes you want to do better, be better, achieve better.

What this club is NOT:

Clubs, networks and organizations are a dime a dozen and vary in purpose from one to the next. Not everything is for everyone. We’ve already told you who we are and what we’re about. Now here’s what we’re not.

• A membership card (flashing a card does nothing but show you belong to something). No real incentive.
• Discounts. This isn’t a way to offer you any of our services at a discount. We believe in profitability and value, not sales & upselling gimmicks. It’s all about the members.
• Conference Calls & webinars. Listen-only conference calls are so 2009. Nobody wants to sit on a call and listen to people drone on and on about themselves, their expertise or push products. You can’t really learn or benefit from one way dialog.
• Blog posts. Be serious. You can read blogs anywhere, any time.
• Training videos & podcasts. This isn’t Youtube. Sure, there will be some access to videos, but we prefer to take a very hands on approach for members to get the full networking experience. It’s not about theory learning. Plus everyone’s doing them and usually to push a new product or service.
• Huge membership headcount. Mega memberships are worried about numbers. We’re focused on the experience and the results.
• Online forums & message boards. Everyone has a Facebook page or Linked In group. While online forums are a great place to think out loud or make connections, they can make people lazy. Our members don’t hide behind words on a screen. They make real connections…and bring them to the online forum to continue developing them. Most organizations work in the reverse.
• 80-20 Rule. Nope, not in our networks. It’s all hands on deck. Everyone participates, there are no wallflowers!
• Socializing & gossip. We don’t believe in that. That’s what entertainment sites and blogs are for. We are serious about our businesses and that is the sole focus. If you happen to make friends along the way, that’s a beautiful value add. But don’t get it twisted, we’re here to help one another grow and prosper.
