Guest Welcome Information
Welcome and thank you for visiting our Leads 7 Group! The purpose of our Leads Group is to provide networking opportunities through interactive weekly meetings for current Chamber members to:
- generate referrals
- build relationships
- share best business practices
- and raise their visibility with in the business community
Some things to consider when thinking of joining our Leads 7 Networking Group:
- Our Leads 7 Group meets every Wednesday (except holidays) at Cabell’s American Bar & Grill on Kerry Forest Parkway. We arrive between 11:15 – 11:30 to get settled, plate our food from the buffet and do some early bird networking. The meeting begins promptly at 11:30 am with a 15 minute speaker or engaging workshop and then you'll have an opportunity to share your 30 second “elevator speech” during the Introductions segment. Each week the Leads 7 Leadership Team will make an effort to have a small activity to help you grow your business. You will find that quite a few members stay after the meeting to finish any last minute thoughts, to pass out leads and to share some fellowship over a bite of fresh fruit or dessert.
- The meeting starts on time. REMEMBER, you would not be late to a meeting with a perspective client and you should consider every member in the group as a potential client. Also, please remember to dress appropriately (business or business casual).
- You are welcome to visit as a guest one time, then, we ask that you decide whether you wish to join Leads 7 or not. If you would like to join Leads 7 (your business category must be available), you must attend 3 consecutive meetings before submitting an application to the Leads 7 Secretary, Jeanine Case, Salon Manager for Millenium Day Spa.
- Leads 7 Membership Dues are outlined below:
- Membership Dues are fully tax deductible
- You may pay by check when invoiced by the Leads 7 Treasurer, John Chason of Seven Hills Business Services
- Annual Membership Dues (non-refundable): $732
- 10% off if you pay annually: $658.80/YR
- Or you may pay Quarterly: $183/QTR
- New members will be prorated for their membership dues and are responsible for $12.00/visit (payable to Leads 7) as a guest.
· If a member misses four (4) meetings in a quarter, they will be removed from the roster and their category will be re-opened to the next Chamber member on the waiting list. A member who is removed from the roster will be considered on “probation” and will need to attend 4 consecutive meetings to be added back to the roster if the category is open upon returning for the first of the 4 consecutive meetings. Only one (1) probation period is allowed for non-attendance. http://www.leadsgroup-7.com has volunteer substitutes available for your convenience.
· All Leads Group Members must be in good standing with the Chamber.
· All members must be respectful of the others and the referrals they receive. When joining a Leads Group, understand that referrals will come once members get to know you and are comfortable exchanging referrals with you. Be sure to make an effort to get to know every member in the Leads Group. You never know where your next referral will come from!
· Please make it a point to visit http://www.leadsgroup-7.com and register to be a user on our website. This will allow the Leads 7 Leadership Team to stay in contact with you.
Thank you for visiting our Leads 7 Group! We hope you found us to be warm and inviting.
Sincerely,
Your Leads 7 Leadership Team
