If you’re like most people, especially those who are new to networking, you’ll be wondering will you have to do a 60 second pitch. So, let us share with you an understanding of our approach to a 60 second pitch, which we prefer to refer to as the 60 second introduction.

What is the 60-Second Introduction?

At Better Networking Hubs, every member and visitor has the opportunity to share a 60-second introduction (not a pitch) about themselves and their business during our meetings. This is a vital part of our networking sessions, allowing everyone to understand who you are, what you do, and how we can best support you.

Focus on Your Needs

The 60-second slot is your chance to be specific about the types of referrals and introductions you’re seeking. Detailing who your ideal customers are helps other members know exactly who they should connect you with. This specificity enhances the quality of referrals and makes the networking process more efficient and beneficial for everyone involved, especially you.

A Relaxed Approach To Your 60 Seconds

We want everyone to feel comfortable and at ease during their 60 second introduction. There’s no need to ‘pitch slap’ anyone; this is about sharing, not selling. You’re welcome to stand while you speak if that feels right for you, but sitting is perfectly acceptable too. The atmosphere is supportive and informal, designed to encourage genuine connections rather than high-pressure sales pitches.

Why 60 Seconds Introductions Are Valuable

These introductions are a fantastic opportunity for you to articulate the support you need from the group. By being clear about your needs, you enable other members to better understand your business and how they can potentially help you. This approach ensures that the help and referrals you receive are targeted and appropriate, aligning with your business objectives and customer profiles.

Your Participation

While participating in this segment of the meeting is integral to our networking meetings, it’s also tailored to make you feel as comfortable as possible. Remember, the aim is to facilitate meaningful connections and mutual support within our networking community, enhancing everyone’s business growth in a collaborative environment. Nerves are perfectly natural but we’re certain you’ll feel perfectly comfortable at our networking meetings.

We hope this answers any concerns that you may have about if you will need to do a 60 second pitch. The best way to experience a Better Networking Hub meeting is to book your visitor place and take it from there. In the meantime, you can contact us if you have any additional questions that we can help with.
