Hub Member Feedback

Thank you to our dedicated members who’ve given us some wonderful feedback and testimonials for The Director’s Hub.
——————————————————————

The Director’s Hub is a perfect way to fully develop relationships with other like-minded business owners, sharing the highs and yes, the lows of running your own business. The peer to peer networking is an invaluable source of support and collaboration as we negotiate the sometimes choppy waters of small business ownership.

Since joining the Directors Hub I have made great contacts and new friends. I have been able to help others and I have also been helped in the way of knowledge sharing and introductions/recommendations.

Plus I get to hang out with other people walking a similar path to me, and there is great comfort in that.

I’ve been a member of the Director’s Hub for some three years. During that time, I’ve found it both an enjoyable and informative experience in the company of some quality individuals.

The Director’s Hub provides a great opportunity to access peer-to-peer business support, and build relationships with other local business owners. The advice and support, experiences, and best practice we can share with each other are invaluable.

Also, the chance to share, in confidence, our challenges is again of great value – particularly in these uncertain times.

I have no doubt that The Director’s Hub will continue to help me keep my business on track. And – it happens to be a good laugh too!

Running a business is tough – rewarding but tough. Quite often I feel like I am continually chasing my tail and never catching up; complete one task and there are a million others waiting in the wings.

What I never expected from running my own business, (especially when Global OHS first started) was the requirement to become multiskilled and learn to keep all the different parts of the business running smoothly. To illustrate this point, I love the day job, just not quite so much on the invoicing and finance side and I never expected it to be so lonely.

I chose to work hard and long hours but when I started I didn’t understand how lonely it could be and how (unless you have your own business) people just don’t quite get it. This for me was the beauty of the Director’s Hub; it provided a safe and confidential environment for me to discuss my issues with other people who faced the same ones and to help them overcome the ones that I had faced. My business has grown over the last eight years and I am no longer so alone; I have a cracking team behind me but the Director’s Hub still offers me the space to step outside of the business, re-frame and re-think where I want to go both professionally and personally as it taught me it not all just about work.

I highly rate the Director’s Hub and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for more than a sales platform; to put this in some context, I joined nearly every networking club / organisation when I started, desperately searching for that ‘angle’ to generate new business and to succeed. The Directors Hub is the only one I still attend and am a member of, which I think speaks volumes in itself. If you are looking for a high pitched sales networking club, then I doubt this is for you. If, however you are looking to grow, to succeed and develop lasting friendships along the way then you have found what you are looking for.

Since joining the Hub success now looks very different to me and to quote John Wooden;

“Success is peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to become the best of which you are capable.”

Our door is always open, come on in and find the best version of you.

Festive Founders’ Club

9 months ago

What a year it has been for The Director’s Hub: Founders’ Support Club.

This year on the 14th of December, we all went to The Old Ship Hotel in Brighton for our annual end-of-year event, we were supposed to have 24 members attending, but due to illness and train strikes we had 17 attend, all in all, we still had a great time at the hotel. Next year in 2023 we’re at The Grand Hotel for a bigger directors’ event.

So many fantastic events crammed into one year. The Hub has grown from one hub to four in the space of three years and continues to grow. I’m humbled by the support of members joining as I know we offer an array of services within the event spectrum.

Now, however, Network Xpress which is the brand behind the Directors’ Hub is pushing the boundaries for what is possible for its business with the creation of this new Founders’ Support Club. Not only is Sonny running the Sussex Business Show, he is also creating support bubbles for local directors and start-ups across Sussex.

Here’s a few photos below of some of the members and the December group this year.
