Networking Best Practices

Sunrise Networking, a newer competitor to LBN and BNI, was recently profiled in Oakland Business Review.

Here are a few of the highlights:

" It's not what you take when you leave - it's what you leave behind when you go" -SNG Founder

Q: How does SNG differ from other networking groups?

A: We went beyond the morning breakfast and have built a business family. Members enjoy each others' company because we understand that life is not just about business. We also have fun and engage in many networking events and charitable organizations from a bocce ball league to a golf league to attending Detroit Tigers games and more. We feel that raising money for a number of charities is very important. All activities are designed to introduce our members to one another.

Most networking groups have a lot of rules where you have to have leads or you get fined for not showing up on time and become dry, boring settings. At the SNG, we would rather have a warm introduction rather than get a lead.
