Brussels Business Over Breakfast Club

BBOB is a ‘Business Development’ club with an attitude of “success breeds success”

We are a niche group of people who are coming together to

• share and generate ideas
• build genuine mutually beneficial relationships
• move forward in new ways with the help and support of each other
• be each others sales and marketing people
   

BBOB isn’t just another networking club!  BBOB is for you if:

• you don’t enjoy typical networking, especially in the evening
• your networking isn’t effective
• you need to find new ways of doing business
• you want to generate good solid business and you’re not in it for a “quick fix”

If this concept is something you would like to get involved in, then take a look at the membeship page for more details

Lynda Dyer is back in Brussels giving her 2 day seminar ‘Busting Brain Blocks, Beliefs & Boundaries, so you can Be, Do and Have more’.  She’s so passionate about this course and has already helped thousands of people all over the world, clear old beliefs that have kept them stuck, sometimes for years!

I attended one of Lynda’s NLP Business Matrix courses earlier this year and experienced great results.  I also interviewed her on my radio show ‘Europes Secret to Success’, she talks about how our limiting beliefs can stunt our business growth and the importance of letting go of old behaviours to achieve more.  The recording can be listened to on this link www.loaradionetwork.com/natasha-abudarham.html. 

You can also download the show onto your iphone/ipod, go to itunes / podcasts / search ‘Europes Secret to Success’

Lynda has been kicking up a storm all over the world and we’re lucky to have her here in Brussels!

If want to test out Lynda’s proven belief buster technique, she’s doing a webinar just for Europe on 8 October at 20.00 hrs (GMT +1).  I’ll post the details as soon as I have them!

If you know your subconscious could do with a de-clutter and you want to clear old beliefs that are holding you back, then you may be interested in her 2 day seminar on 7 & 8 November (date change from 24 & 25 October) in Brussels.  She really is the clearing queen!  Click on the link for all the info busting-brain-blocks-flyer-for-brussels-31

The BBOB launch on 3 March 2009 was a great success.  We met people working in Journalism, IT Solutions, Office Services, Event Services, Marketing & Communications, Health and Fitness, Art, Real Estate, Design, Financial Consultancies, Hospitality, Hairdresser, Yoga, Corporate Coaching, Personal Coaching, High Tech Water Engineering, Insurance Broker, Leadership Development & Psychology.

It is BBOBs hope that we have people representing ALL business sectors including lawyers, accountants, all types of shops that sell products & services, home repair, beauty, the list is endless!

The more people we have on board who become known personally and for the business they represent, the easier it is for us to not only find reliable people to accomodate our own needs but also to promote each other through word of mouth referring.

Preparation + Opportunity = Success

If you are fully prepared to provide a good level of service, the opportunity is here at BBOB for you to achieve more success than your business is achieving right now.  And lets face it, if you’ve joined BBOB you’re here because you want to become more successful in some area of your business, right?

We are only as good as the people we choose to surround ourselves with and in order for our businesses to be successful we have to have solid foundations.  These solid foundations will partly come from having people like us helping people like us.  BBOBs moto says it all ‘How can I help you and how can you help me?’.

BBOB wants to be the number one stop for all businesses who want to increase their income through giving help and being helped.  It seems simple but for not for many who are stuck in their old ways and for those who don’t recognise the need to change the way they do business.  The crisis is a great example of this.  A crisis is a crisis for those who are unwilling to change, unwilling to try something new and unwilling to share.  The crisis is in fact a perfect opportunity for people to re-assess where they are right now and make changes so they are not the ones who continue to be affected now and during the next crisis and the next crisis and the next.  We can all have exactly what we want, we just have to find a way that works for us and take action, BBOB is the perfect place to start making your change.

We have a vision for BBOB but anything could happen.  As new BBOB particpants & team members come on board sharing their knowledge and experience, BBOB could move in any direction.  Whatever that direction be it is our Vision that BBOB becomes a huge success for all of us. 

We look forward to seeing you at the next breakfast on 17 March. Email info@bbob.be for more information.

The BBOB team are very excited at how quickly the seats for the Launch on 3 March are being booked.  There are still seats available, so don’t miss this unique opportunity to join Brussels new networking Club which aims at helping members develop and build business contacts.
