Who it is for
Peer advisory boards and mastermind groups
Eight to fifteen business owners who meet every month, tell each other the truth, and hold each other to what they said they would do. The meeting is the product. Everything around it, the diary, the follow ups, the renewals and the recruiting, is what eats the facilitator's week.
Every board, in one place
Each board is a group of its own, with its own members, meetings and facilitator. Run one board or forty and the price is the same per member, so opening a new board is a decision about the people, not the software. You see every board side by side: who is attending, who has gone quiet, and whose renewal is coming up.
Confidential by design
What is said in a board stays in the board. Members see the members of their own board, and nobody else. Each board has its own private chat, and there is no open messaging between members: a private conversation opens only when both people agree. Email addresses and phone numbers are never listed; members share them only when they choose to.
A facilitator sees their own boards, not the rest of the business. Your data is kept in London, and the security page explains who can see what.
The monthly meeting
Meetings are set once as a series. Members get reminders at the times you choose, can say they cannot make it, and you have a record of attendance across the year, which is usually the first sign that somebody is drifting. Online meetings work the same way as ones in a room.
Between meetings
The best boards keep going between sessions. Members can ask their board for help with something specific, get introduced to someone worth knowing, and log the one to ones they have with each other. It gives the facilitator a view of who is engaged, and it gives members something to point to when they ask themselves whether it is worth it.
Recruiting the next member
Most board members come through someone who is already in the room. Each member has their own link to share with a peer they rate, who registers for a taster session and says what they are happy to hear about afterwards. The member who brought them is credited, however long they take to join, and every prospect stays on a follow up list until you hear yes or no.
Fees stay with you
Board fees are a serious commitment, often monthly, and we never touch them. Members pay you the way they do now. We keep the record of who is on which plan and when it renews, and send the reminders, so nobody lapses because a card expired and nobody noticed.
What it costs
£1.50 per active member a month, never less than £75, and nothing to pay for setting up. For a member paying several hundred pounds a month to sit on a board, the software is a rounding error. The pricing page has the exact figures.
Where it is not the answer
NetworkingBadger does not take payments, run a learning platform, or host video calls. It is the organisation around your boards, not the boards themselves. If that is what you are missing, tell us about your boards.
