That trust can be built at the events and trade shows that regularly take place throughout the year.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>For your diary<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of the leading business event organisers across Reading include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thamesvalleychamber.co.uk\/event\">Thames Valley Chamber of Commerce<\/a>&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn new skills and connect with businesses across Reading and the surrounding area.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.firstfridayclubreading.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First Friday Club Reading<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guest speakers, sponsorship packages and marketing discounts are some of the benefits of becoming a member.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.readingbusinessclub.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reading Business Club<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An informal group of businesses from Reading and across the Thames Valley, you can gain new ideas&nbsp;and support from a wide range of attendants.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessbiscotti.co.uk\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Business Biscotti<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a private members&#8217; club, membership brings an opportunity to meet a wide-range of people from diverse business sectors.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.4networking.biz\/Events\/Group\/Reading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4 Networking<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For over ten years, this networking organisation has been connecting businesses together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you are looking for networking groups to join, or events where your business can exhibit, Reading is an active venue that your business can take full long-term advantage of.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Your checklist<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To make the most of the event, tradeshow or networking meeting you attend across Reading, follow these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 1. Be prepared<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are attending a networking event, business club, in Reading or have a stand at a trade show, research the other attendees to ensure you are ready to answer all their questions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 2. Take business cards and other promotional materials<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t forget your business cards, but could you also take marketing materials? Put your business brochure on a USB credit card. You&#8217;ll be able to offer more detailed information, and you&#8217;ll standout from the other attendees<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 3. Ask open questions<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have your elevator pitch ready, and then switch to asking open questions about the person and their business you&#8217;re talking to. Ask them about the market they are in, and what their ambitions are for the next year. These could fit with the products or services your business has available.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;4. Publicise your attendance<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use your business&#8217;s social media networks to announce the events you will be attending. Other delegates will be searching for information about the other attendees, so ensure they can find the information they are looking for. You could even arrange to meet someone at your events you have connected with on social media.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp; &nbsp; 5. Make notes<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t make notes at the event or show, but as soon as the event has finished do a debrief of the information you have gained and what you have learnt. Now use this information for an action plan. Always follow up the connection you made in no more than 72 hours. Any longer and these people won&#8217; remember who you are.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp; &nbsp; 6. Connect other people<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As an event progresses, if you know someone the person you&#8217;re speaking to should meet, make the introduction. These reciprocal connections can often lead to highly lucrative partnerships you can be a part of, as you brokered the initial introduction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The events across Reading are a huge opportunity for your business to connect with potential clients and customers, make valuable personal contacts, and raise the profile of your business. Attending events in Reading is the perfect way to expand your business&#8217;s market and become an enterprise everyone wants to do business with.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reading has a vibrant and dynamic business community.
