Connected is a great way to meet referral partners. Chris does a good job making everyone feel comfortable.

CONNECTED offers an innovative and beneficial approach to networking that I'm happy to have discovered recently.

It was great leading this gathering of people wanting to further relationships, do business and impact their community.

I am officially an alumni of the Networking Breakthrough Academy as of yesterday. Chris and his team has made this training a very casual and comfortable environment for like minded individuals to be vulnerable and simultaneously talk about business. This training is a testament of what it means to grow professionally and personally!

I attended my CONNECTED event, and it was great! A great approach to networking, focused on building meaningful relationships. I left feeling energized, supported, and truly connected with other professionals who value collaboration over sales pitches. Looking forward to the next one!

Love attending a networking event where people truly have an engaging experience.

Great group of people!

The networking space, food, teaching and people were incredible. Great way to meet people without fear because that what this event is designed to do. Great way of learning to network.

The CONNECTED experience has changed my life after 2 visits! This is the best outlook on networking and building relationships I have ever been a part of. Thank you CONNECTED family for the opportunity to join this amazing community!

Great events. Great people.

I attended the monthly Friday "Night Owl Networking" event that is used for playing a game (tonight was "What's in the box?") and then answering fun questions in between rounds (ex. Who was your teenage actor/actress crush?). I was a bit nervous that I might not fit in when I found out that there were people that went regularly, but was quickly put at ease and welcomed by all. The hour started off with everyone introducing themselves and saying what they do. The hour ended with everyone telling what they were looking for in wanting to network (i.e., referrals for business, contacts for ventures, etc.). I definitely recommend coming to one of their events if you are looking to network with others.

This is the BEST networking group! I have been to a few events and it has been so comfortable and welcoming. I have already made real connections and genuine friendships. I am so grateful to have this group in my community. I cannot wait to learn and grow with this group. If you are feeling even a little nervous, give it a try! Who knows, maybe you will even see me at an event & we can connect!-Jada Michelle

If you haven’t been to a Connected Networking event, you’re doing it wrong. Chris is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and a true leader who has taught thousands of people how to be a better networker. His events are fun, welcoming, informative and helpful no matter your industry or skill set. Looking forward to the next one. Here’s to many more years of growth and success!

I first met Chris and Belinda, a little over 6 years ago, during a D.A.N.G. (Dublin Area Networking Group) event. Their approach to networking was uniquely different from anything I had experienced the previous 20 years of business networking, more relaxed, much more relationship focused.Now, as an ambassador for CONNECTED Networking Group, I've been blessed to serve with Chris & Belinda, helping others experience networking in a different way, building lasting relationships through unique networking events. You likely cannot attend every CONNECTED networking opportunity but if you attend 2-3 monthly events regularly, you'll experience first hand, the genuine relationships that are formed through this very special and blessed group of business professionals.James MinterBuckeye Media ServicesFranNetColumbus

This is the best business networking group to join whether you have a business, looking to grow a business, are wanting to build confidence in yourself as a business owner, or just wanting to gain better business relationships. I’ve only been to one event but I left feeling more confident in myself and I’m eager and excited to see where all of the new relationships that I started at the event goes.

When I came to the Connected event for the first time. I didnt know anyone in the event but they made feel welcome and supported even though I didnt live around the area. I truly believe in building relationships is the first step to greatness but in order to achieve greatness you have to step out of your bubble, meeting people and building relationships with them. I recommend this for people who wants to meet like minded individuals! Strongly recommend it. No matter who you are and what you do. This community will make you feel welcome and supported

I attended my first CONNECTED lunch today. I met so many great people and made genuine connections. Chris and Belinda were incredibly welcoming. I loved the casual atmosphere and the emphasis on building relationships. They kept everyone active, engaged and overall it was high energy with a great vibe. This was an entirely different experience from other networking meetings I've attended in the past. I like that they offer so many different types of meetings and at different times. I will actually look forward to attending more in the future and on a more regular basis. If you're looking for an awesome group of people and unique experience to make friends and build your network, I would highly recommend to attend one of their many events.

The CONNECTED Networking Group is a great place for novice and experienced networkers to get together and learn more about who a person is and their profession.
