Whether you’re just starting a business, or you’re an experienced company exec at some point you’re going to have to go out and get the word out about your business.
No form of marketing is cheaper than the owner/founder introducing himself and his company to people from around the business community of Torbay.
But which networking event should you attend, how much does it cost and when do they start?
Luckily we’ve put together a short list of some of the business networks currently ongoing around the Torquay, Paignton and Brixham areas.
We try to keep the list of networking events up to date, but if you notice something missing, drop us an email.
