History of the SBCN
The Small Business Community Network group (SBCN) was founded in 2003 by Linda and Dave Ockwell-Jenner. It was felt there was a need for an organization such as the SBCN to help small business owners enter the world of networking. Our guiding principles are:
- Offer a warm welcome to both members and guests.
- We focus on building relationships of trust.
- Mentorship; helping one another grow.
- Referrals are not an expectation, but they come with time.
- We are not limited to a single member of each profession.
- To offer educational opportunities.
- To be accessible to all small business owners.
Who would be interested in the SBCN?
- Small business operators; their employees and support network.
- Business owners who would benefit from support and relationships with other business operators.
- Entrepreneurs & start-ups.
- Students considering going into small business.
Membership
Guests are always welcome at our monthly networking events; there is no limit on the number of times you can attend as a guest. However, the SBCN has compelling membership options that provide a number of additional benefits. We would certainly recommend that you come and check-out our monthly networking event as a guest before making any membership committments.
If you are interested to learn more about our membership options, please take a look at the benefits of becoming a member.
If you prefer internet networking enjoy some of the membership benefits from the comfort of your own office or home. The SBCN membership directory is your showcase to the global community!
