Does the idea of networking events make you cringe? You’re not alone! Many small business owners avoid networking because it feels awkward, forced, or just plain uncomfortable. But what if you’ve just been going to the wrong types of events?

In this episode of The Growth Addicts Podcast, I’m joined by Sarah Cook, founder of Come Network With Me, to chat about how to make networking fun, meaningful, and actually beneficial for your business.

I’ve personally never been a fan of networking, but after this conversation, I’m realizing that it’s not networking that’s the problem—it’s the pressure we put on it!

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why traditional networking doesn’t work for many small business owners
  • How to find the right networking event that actually feels GOOD
  • The real value of networking (hint: it’s not about instant sales or referrals!)
  • Why Sarah started hosting her own networking events and how they’re different
  • How to remove the pressure and just enjoy meeting like-minded people
  • BONUS: Free Invite to an Online Networking Event!

Sarah is offering a FREE online networking taster session for Growth Addicts listeners! If you’ve been avoiding networking but want to give it a try—this is your sign.
