  We're Cooking Up Something Really Special - And You're Warmly Invited To Be A Part Of It!

  As everyone who attends our regular Friday Breakfast Meetings knows, SBNG is a warm and friendly networking group - arguably the best on the Central Coast!  We love our members and we are preparing something to show our Sponsors just how much we appreciate them:

  On Wednesday 16th July, 6:30pm-9:30pm, we’re hosting our very first SBNG Sponsor Evening -  to celebrate the amazing Sponsors who help make our network what it is today.

  This isn’t just for Sponsors — it’s for all of us.

  It’s going to be a chance to connect, enjoy great food, hear from industry leaders, and celebrate the vibrant business community we’ve built together.

  Here’s what you can look forward to:
  ✅ A warm welcome and relaxed networking evening with like-minded business owners
  ✅ Delicious canapes to suit all dietary requirements
  ✅ Short and insightful 15-minute sponsor presentations
  ✅ Drinks will be available at bar prices, otherwise the night is on us!

  Bookings are essential so we can plan for catering — we want to make sure everyone is well fed and fabulously looked after.

  Reserve your spot below:

  How People Buy & How You Can Help

  Dr Leanne Faulkner will explore the psychology behind buying decisions, drawing on the influential work of Dr. Robert Cialdini, a renowned behavioural scientist and New York Times bestselling author of Influence, The Psychology of Persuasion. 

  We'll discuss the key decision-making triggers that can help your customers choose your product or service with confidence. Influence, The Psychology of Persuasion, has become a cornerstone sales and strategy book, with many ideas from the book discussed on the popular ABC TV show, Gruen. 

  Please note: this is a one-time-only presentation and will not be repeated, so don’t miss your chance to learn how to turn curiosity into committed customers, while staying true to your values.

  
  

  Plus of course you'll have the opportunity to introduce yourself and your business to other small business owners and managers as you present your 20 second Elevator Pitch.
