How it works
A unique way to network
At ScreenPop, we believe that networking needs to be structured to keep things productive, but our meetings are still friendly, authentic and relaxed.
Each meeting lasts an hour and 45 minutes, kicking off with a 60-second round where each member introduces themselves and their businesses over tea, coffee and pastries. This is followed by a 10-minute presentation from one of our members or, occasionally, a visiting member from another ScreenPop group. After that, we take a quick break. This is followed by a second 10-minute presentation and a final lightning round for referrals, comments and recommendations.
Our networking style combines a category lockout with a membership model. This means that there is only one of any business type at each meeting, which means members are able to build strong connections with other businesses, without having to elbow out competitors for their time and attention. Meanwhile, committing to attend a meeting every month enables you to get to know your fellow members on a deeper level.
Members are also welcome to attend our monthly no-lockout online meeting, which takes place over Zoom. This enables business owners to connect with potential clients across our wide networking area.
Memberships and fees
Members are welcome to visit one other ScreenPop meeting each month, free of charge, as well as any launch meetings for new groups, so long as their category isn’t already represented by a member of that group. This enables you to expand your reach and make connections beyond the confines of your own group, meeting like-minded business owners across a far broader area.
