Frequently asked questions

How often do BoB Connections clubs meet?

Our local clubs meet once every two weeks. Monday Connect meets online every Monday.

How much does it cost to become a member?

The investment required to become a member can be seen by going to www.bobconnections.co.uk/join.

Can I spread the cost of membership?

Membership is payable in one payment, but speak with the Regional Director for clarification. The vast majority of our members find that BoB Connections quickly pays for itself through the quality opportunities it brings their business.

If I can't make a meeting, do I have to provide a substitute?

No, you don't have to provide a substitute, but it may be worthwhile getting someone to stand in for you to promote your business if possible. Showing up means you will find new connections and share opportunities. You won't be able to develop a rapport, acquire knowledge and build trust if you're not a regular.

I represent a charity. If I joined a BoB Connections club, would I get a discount?

We would expect you to pay the normal amount, but then we will make a generous donation to your charity.

Can I reserve my exclusive place at a BoB Connections club that is in formation?

Yes, and all you have to pay is the one‑off registration fee. You will not be asked to pay anything else until the club is about to officially launch.

If I join a club that is in formation, when will my membership begin?

Your full 12 months membership will not commence until the club officially launches.

Do I have to attend every meeting?

No, but it is really important to attend as many BoB Connections meetings as possible, so as not to miss the opportunity to promote your business, ask for specific referrals and meet visitors and members.

How do I let you know if I can't make a meeting?

You will receive automated email reminders of the next meeting. All we expect you to do is respond to the email confirming that you will be attending, or tell us as early as possible why you can't make that meeting (on holiday, illness and so on) so that we can confirm final numbers with the venue.

Do I have to give referrals?

No, we only want members to pass quality referrals, so if you don't have any at a meeting that's OK. But continue to be proactive in seeking opportunities for fellow members. We prefer quality rather than quantity, but please remember: the more referrals you give, the more you will receive.

What else should I do to make sure BoB Connections works for me?

One really important thing to do is arrange regular one2one meetings with each member of your BoB Connections club. This will help you both understand what you each do and the sort of people you are looking for introductions to.

You can easily book one2one meetings with other members through our online system.
