If you are coming to a Speed Lunch™ hoping to:

• Exchange leads
• Only sell your products or services
• Recruit the people you meet
• Get business

You are not a good candidate for a Speed Lunch.

Business networking is one of mutual sharing for mutual benefit. If you are just looking to receive, e.g., move some merchandise, it is a one-way street that would only benefit you. Business networking is about establishing long term mutually beneficial relationships - not getting leads or making sales.

That said; good networking relationships could provide you with business opportunities, business partnerships, career opportunities, and personal opportunities. However, that is the by product of the relationship not the root.

If none of this makes sense to you, then perhaps Speed Lunch is not the proper venue for you. There are numerous lead exchange organizations in every metropolitan location that may serve you better.
