Getting Started with BITA

It can be difficult for people to know how to network effectively, and Paul has a few tips for those looking to get started;
“People often want to burst into a room and spray their cards everywhere. I’ve had people tell me they’ve handed out 30 cards in 30 minutes; I tell them they won’t get a single person looking to connect with them.”
People can worry about making first meetings count, especially as they may only have a few minutes with that person, but it can be a mistake to jump into business.

The foundations

Founded in 2012 by President Paul Whitnell, BITA is a not-for-profit dedicated to supporting businesses with advice, connections, and growth opportunities.
