Are face to face networking events included in membership?
We currently offer face to face networking events in York on a ‘pay as you go’ basis. As our membership grows, we plan to expand these events across the UK. To cover room hire costs, we charge for tickets. This means members who can’t make face to face networking aren’t subsiding those who can.
How do I find out about MPWR Events?
If you have notifications set up, you will be emailed/messaged when something new is added. We also email all our members with ‘what’s on next month’. Or head to our Events page.
I don't really know in what direction I should take my business. Should I join?
Yes. MPWR is perfect if your business isn’t where you want it to be. In MPWR, you can get support from us and other business owners on a similar path.
I haven't got a business plan. Should I still join?
We are all about ‘the plan’. So join us and get a plan! Not sure if you should work on streamlining your processes? Or whether you should take on employees? Maybe you don’t know what order to do something in? No problem. We are here to help you find clarity on the best next step for your business.
Isn't MPWR Business Club just another networking group that will overload me with more things to do?
Be reassured, we are not about more ‘stuff’. In fact being a member of MPWR is quite the opposite. We add depth and focus to the knowledge you already have. We help you gain momentum to move forward, rather than loading on more distractions to hold you back.
Do you cover techy stuff?
Yes, we can help you uncover the right tools for your business and anything you’re stuck with. As long as we have access to it, we can show you how to use it. And if we don’t have access, we will do our best to help you find a solution!
How much time will I need each week as an MPWR member?
Just 15 minutes a week to check into our online community hub. Here you can connect, chat to other members and start to build your connections.
To make the most of what’s on offer, we recommend an hour a month for learning. Most of our Masterclasses are half an hour or less. This should give you the time to watch something and starting implementing what you’ve learnt.
What does a typical month look like for a MPWR member?
You don’t have to do everything, just ONE THING a week. Here’s what a typical month looks like:
- Week 1 – We focus on wellbeing, midset and decluttering
- Week 2 – We focus on goal setting and planning
- Week 3 – We focus on networking and community
- Week 4 – We focus on learning
Why is MPWR women-only?
We are not anti-men. Far from it! Our members have male partners, husbands, brothers and sons. However when we did run mixed networking in the past, it just didn’t work as well. At one event the ratio was five men to 50 women. The men felt outnumbered and some of the women felt inhibited about sharing their personal challenges.
There is also real power in seeing someone who looks like you succeeding, and telling their story.
However there are many great mixed networking groups out there. We recommend The Northern Affinity if you’re in the North of England. Or the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) across the UK. Check out our blog post too for lots more reccomendations
Do you welcome people who identify as female?
Yes. Anyone who identifies as female is welcome.
What platform do you use for the Business Club Member Only online area?
We use the Mighty Networks platform. It’s like a more tailored version of Facebook and is really easy to navigate.
I already use this platform for another group. Does this mean I will need another app?
You can switch between networks from within the App and login to other Mighty Networks from there. Do this by:
- Going to the Main (Home) feed
- Clicking on the menu in the top left corner of the screen
- Clock the Switch networks option at the top of this screen
On the desktop web version, you need to log out of what network and then into another.
Once I'm a Business Club Member, do I need to join/be active in the Facebook Business Community as well?
It’s totally up to you. Our Facebook Business Community is open to members and non-members alike, so there may be some women who could be helpful to connect with.
What do people think about MPWR Business Club?
Here’s what out Members have to say about what’s included:
Book Club
“MPWR Book Club is one of my fave things about my MPWR membership. I get to read a new book every month and then ‘get together’ with other members to chat about what we got from it. Everyone always has a different take away.”
– Pascha Turnbull, Inc Dot Design & Print
Goal setting & Planning
“This is a magical first step for me. It’s the first time in ages I have really sat down to look at my business like this. The masterclass has re-energised me, given me new focus and a very informed support group to brainstorm with. It has made me feel part of a team.”
– Ciara McCabe, Kindeas
Learning
“Your return on investment is great and the free masterclasses are fab… We had a great Instagram class recently, I have put so much of that into practise already and it’s all included in the subscription. MPWR is absolutely brilliant.”
– Hannah Swierstra, Balance VA Services
Online Networking
“I always think of these sessions as a bit like going to the staff room at work. Good conversation and the social interaction that I need working on my own.”
– Geraldine Mace, Life Transition Coach
