Phoebe delivers services to manage Businesses through tough times.

BRBN looks forward to new members delivering the 10 minute slot, giving an insight into their businesses, this week, Phoebe from Parker Andrews, delivered a great ten-minute presentation on the family business and how they assist companies of all sizes in times of trouble.

The 10 minute slot Phoebe has demonstrated is an ideal opportunity to share practical knowledge while encouraging discussion among fellow business owners. In a short space of time, she managed to get the focus on the essentials: how they set clear goals, building strong customer relationships. With their input, they can prevent business disasters. Effective business management is not simply about increasing profits; it is about creating a resilient organisation that can adapt to changing markets and customer expectations.

Phoebe commented, "Understanding the daily struggles faced by businesses helps whilst understanding rising costs, staff recruitment, changing legislation, and increasing competition are challenges that affect organisations of every size. By acknowledging these realities and offering practical solutions, they can build together creating credibility and trust". 

Phoebe mentioned how they help businesses in overcoming obstacles and can inspire confidence and encourage collaboration. 

Following the 60 second slot, welcoming a number of guests, a lovely continental breakfast was served and Maddie delivered a thought provoking 10 minute slot, "Consistency and continuity is key to good networking".

Maddie said, "Continuity in networking builds trust, credibility, and lasting relationships. Regular attendance and consistent engagement help people remember you and understand your business. Over time, these connections lead to referrals, partnerships, and opportunities that rarely arise from a single meeting. Networking is most valuable when it is nurtured through ongoing commitment and genuine support".

This week, it was good to hear about the connections, 1-2-1's, passing of business and the good news delivered.

Next week's meeting on 13th August 2026 is a virtual meeting.
