SOCIALLY CHALLENGED? - Business and the Social Networking Revolution
Far from the days of the old school tie and unusual handshakes, the last decade has seen an unparalleled rise in business networking. Many of the traditional networks, such as the IoD, Chambers of Commerce and Rotary have had to rise to the challenges posed by a host of groups, both international and local. Opportunities abound, ranging from breakfast meetings, through lunch and into dinner. There have even been twenty-four hour charity ‘networkathons’, so you don’t even have to go home for want of an event to go to! There’s a new kid on the block now, however, and he’s making a big impact very quickly.

At the time networking as a formal activity was little known in the UK, with a few independent groups supplementing the networking offered by Chambers of Commerce and community groups such as Rotary. How times have changed! Networking is now a key activity for millions of small business owners across the World and, with the rise of social online networks, is being recognised as a key skill for everyone, from jobseekers to global corporates.

If you manage a small to medium-sized business, chances are you encounter pricing pressures from some version of a large discounter. Large competitors may have more money to spend to attract new customers, more buying-power to undercut your prices, and more resources to outlast you in a price war. If they’re from overseas, they may also have cheaper labour. That’s why when chambers of commerce and associations bring me in to speak to business owners on competing with price discounters, my advice: “Don’t be better – be different.” In other words, don’t even try to beat their prices.
