The First Friday Network
First Friday is a free business networking event run on the first Friday of each month in the Ship Hotel, North Street, Chichester and The Lamb Inn, Lewes.
Free entry – no fees: just turn up, no need to pre book, no 'lock-outs' bring plenty of business cards and promotional material...
The value of networking is now widely accepted. Most businesses realise that word-of-mouth recommendation is by far the best way to gain new business. If you are looking for new customers, new suppliers or merely want to meet and chat with other business people to share experiences, talk about your recent successes or discuss mutual problems, then bring some business cards and come along.
There is no prior booking, no registration, no fees and no pressure!
Please pass on details of this event to any business colleagues or associates whom you feel may be interested in attending.
In business there is no such thing as a free lunch... well there is at First Friday!
At Chichester's March meeting we gave away a meal for two at the Ship Hotel, kindly sponsored by the new management, which was won by Karen Griffin of Griffin Designs.
We hope to run a business card draw every month – if you would like to sponsor the draw, please contact
Steve Wilson.
Supported by Chichester District Council Economic Development Service
