Based
on Gerrards Cross, Cross Reference is one of the
most prolific South Bucks business networking
groups, and it's all based around bacon and eggs
each Friday. Its membership straddles a broad
spectrum of products, services and disciplines,
from mobile phones to driver training and company
law to expert witness.
In fact, it's a colourful menu of well established
talents, techniques and experiences providing
a benchmark for the best in local businesses you
could probably find anywhere in the UK.
Cross Reference chairman, James Torr of Elrond
Consulting, says: "We are a cheerful, friendly
group who, as you would expect, treat business
and networking very seriously. In many ways we
are unique in what we can and do provide for ourselves
and other businesses in the area and, indeed,
sometimes much further afield too.
"We are all extremely professional in how
we operate and the way we administer our multifarious
expertises. One thing our clients and customers
are assured of is the highest possible attention
to detail because we all uphold identical levels
of satisfaction and commitment to doing our very
best."
Networking is a skill that needs careful development
and practice. So Cross Reference members meet
for a 7.15 breakfast every Friday morning at the
Bull Hotel in Gerrards Cross. This provides an
invaluable platform to discuss, debate and endorse
current successes and pave the way, through referrals
and testimonials, for future contacts and business
development.
Bill Jones, of management consultants Postillion,
explains: " Cross Reference is all about
increasing sales and business contacts and broadening
our scope. Each week our breakfast sessions produce
a high level of positive, business referrals that
members then take away and, hopefully, turn in
good solid business.
"Not only do our own businesses benefit
from the process but those of our colleagues do
as well. Indeed, we each have a portfolio of local
business which we feel confident about recommending
to others."
Cross Reference has a special visitors breakfast
