Following ProNet’s successful launch at Park Lane on 22^nd October,  - this Professional Networking Group will be meeting up again next Thursday at 7:30am prompt, for business over breakfast and excellent networking opportunities. Just £10 per person. Once a month there will be a speaker imparting their knowledge and at the alternate meeting there will be the following opportunity to:

 

"Bring a Challenge to the Table”

 

Do you have an issue in your business that is a causing you a problem? Perhaps it's difficulty in getting paid on time from a specific customer, or perhaps you're struggling to think of that winning strap-line for your website. Whatever your issue a problem shared is a problem halved and using proNet's unique "Problem Platform" - you'll get the chance to air your probelm to others in the room. Then, using everyone's collective knowledge and experience, come away from the meeting with practical solutions you can use in your business to resolve your issue.
