Just wanted to thank Amanda, Joan and Kerry Anne for today's Faringdon meet. Lots of new faces and a good vibe, with several people staying behind for 1 to 1s number 4 and even 5 after the main meeting finished.
Despite having been a member of 4N for about a year now, on and off, I've not been fully convinced of the concept until very recently, mainly because my magazine business was too localised to really benefit from the format. I'm now in the process of setting up the proofreading business, which is obviously more portable, to run alongside the mag and I did my first proper promotion of it in my rather nervous 40 second slot today ... and have come away with two very positive leads, as well as a possible ad booking for the magazine.
On the other side, I've been using Neon Flare for my telesales for the last few weeks, I've had legal advice from Lime One on two occasions and I'm about to organise life insurance and a will, both through people I met at 4N Faringdon. Add to that the support I've had recently through the "staff room" chat forum and I'm really starting to realise just how effective and all round wonderful this place is.
So thanks to Brad and the team ... it's taken me a long time to get into the 4N groove but I think I might just about be there!
Best wishes,
Alison

And just to add some more of the results I've had from 4N, I've had my carpets cleaned, had the inspiration AND the name for my new business, had help with graphics, discovered some tasty sauces, attended a motivating sales tips workshop, had my website critiqued, been headhunted for Call The Office, and met some really lovely people!
Not a bad comeback really 
Best wishes,
Alison

It was great to see you at Faringdon today Alison, and I have to say, I thought your 40 seconds was excellent! ;o)
Really pleased you've done so well out of 4N, me too! It's amazing when you break it all down like that!
Thoroughly enjoyed the Faringdon meeting again today, a great mix of people and lots of different faces too!
