FAQs
What is the single biggest difference between traditional networking and NIA?
Traditional networking asks members to spend 3 to 5 hours a week and recruit friends to grow the group all the while meetings have a focus on the guest. NIA focuses the meeting time on members who receive valuable information to help them grow their business and relationships. The networking is more organic and each month we attempt to bring you over 2k in real value!
How is this different from other Networking groups?
Let’s start with what is similar, which is only one person per industry. In every other way we are different. Yes, you can expect referrals, but we focus much more on growing someone’s business. We have monthly meetings instead of weekly, state-of-the-art technology, and the leader of your group is a paid professional. They do not leave in the fall and they are compensated (not volunteering) for continuing to grow their group. Additionally, you are provided with free software to get more five-star reviews, two professionally edited videos, a Google My Business page consultation, a CRM system and the monthly agendas each valued at 2K or more!
What if I’m already in another networking group?
You are welcome to join Network In Action and continue to enjoy your other membership. We believe the larger your network the more value you have to members in our organization. If your chapter has a problem with you joining another group that is industry exclusive no problem, you will just join NIA and indicate on the application that you are there for all the other benefits. In this example you are not required to pass referrals. It’s the best of both worlds, you can receive referrals, take in all the value at our monthly meetings and continue to enjoy your membership with the other organization.
Am I required to recruit members?
This is another difference between NIA and traditional networking. We believe you have enough to do to build your own business and we’ll take care of building the group. You are our client and while you are welcome to bring your friends you will never be required to. Most of our members end up bringing their friends because they want to have them experience this great group, not because they are required to.
