Finalists in the Midlands Business Awards

At Real Point we're big fans of networking. For us it's been one of our major ways of growing our business. So when we heard about the Networker category in the Midlands Business Awards, we decided to give it a go!

The good news is, we've made it to the finals! I was interviewed earlier this week by an intimidating line up of seven judges, more than anyone on X Factor or Strictly faces (or so I'm told!). With questions on why I think networking is important, why I network, where I network, how much time I spend networking and how I use Social Media in networking, the ten minute interview felt like two and before I knew it I was being hustled back out the room.

Now we just have to wait and see. The awards are on the 3rd February 2012, so we've just got to hold our breath till then! We have some tough competition from some well known names on the Midlands networking scene, so glad to have made it this far and may the best one win . . . .
