We

network

differently

Connect was created by three Tucson business owners who wanted to bring a new concept to networking.

Bobbi Still, Affinity for Design, co-founder says,

“I wanted to belong to a networking group devoted to helping my company grow with other like-minded business owners. I visualized a networking atmosphere where individuals were being supported, not tracked for their performance in growing the group. That is why I am proud to say, Connect does not have a membership fee, rather, a marketing fee dedicated to marketing your business to others.”

I believe that an impactful agenda focused on relevant business topics and quality activities will attract other like-minded business owners. Together we will learn and grow!

  • Meeting My Business Goals

    Connect is focused on doing business. This group is going to help me with my business goals.

    Dianne

  • Relationships

    My very first meeting I reached out to 4 business owners and met 4 business owners.

    Marc

  • Focus on Learning

    I really enjoyed the focus on learning more about running my business from other experts.

    Margret

  • Like-Minded Individuals

    I am meeting like-minded individuals who want to grow their business.

    Susan

  • Trusted Resources

    It is a great group for meeting trusted resources for my customers.
