Teams: We&Co’s Fresh Addition to Networking Groups

What are Teams? In the dynamic world of professional networking, We&Co is thrilled to announce the launch of a brand-new service offering: “Teams.” Designed to sit alongside our elite Huddles, our Teams are an essential addition to our suite of networking tools, crafted to enrich our members’ experience and broaden their professional network!

The best part? In keeping with our mission of helping professionals save time while making more money, not only are we answering what several members have been waiting for, but we’ve automated the process so they get what they want (a more traditional approach to networking) while we uphold our mission to help maximize professionals’ time while making them more money!

Teams and Huddles: Complementary Forces in Networking

While Huddles have established themselves as the cornerstone of high-level networking within We&Co, catering to our most elite members with specialized tools like individual CRM systems and OCR functionality for business card scanning, “Teams” opens the door to a different kind of networking opportunity. One that has a more traditional networking feel but without the additional networking “homework.” Here are the differences:

Unveiling We&Co Teams: A Weekly Networking Powerhouse

Teams brings members together once a week for an hour and a half of focused, industry-exclusive networking in a structured setting. Unlike Huddles, which convene twice a month for an hour in a highly strategic, hyper-focused meeting, Teams members each represent a unique industry. This exclusive representation coupled with business SWOTlights and distinctive KPIs—such as

  1. passing four referrals a month,
  2. attending at least two Me-2-We’s (one-on-one meetings), and
  3. not missing more than two meetings in a six-month span.

The Debut of Our New Traditional Networking Model

Our inaugural “Teams” meeting is slated for Wednesday, March 27th, 2024 at 11:15 AM at Bellacino’s on S. Glenstone in Springfield, Missouri. This event isn’t just the launch of a new service but a celebration of how We&Co continues to innovate in making professional networking more effective and rewarding. As you know, our mission includes maximizing professionals’ time while making them more money. Gone are the days of having several hours of “networking homework,” within each networking group. As the same as our Huddles, we have the opportunity to get our “networking homework” done during the Teams meeting so that when you leave, you don’t have additional “To-Dos” on your already expansive work list.

Elevating Networking with Technology

What makes Teams a groundbreaking addition to We&Co’s networking groups is our cutting-edge, high-tech automated core platform. The days of manually tallying referrals or preparing slides for weekly meetings are over. With Teams, everything is automated, from referral tracking to meeting organization, ensuring that leadership can focus on providing support rather than managing logistics.

I remember being a part of leadership in other networking groups, and while it was fun, it turned into a part-time job! After a while, I started wondering if I was spending my time wisely. Not including my weekly hour-and-a-half long networking meeting, I was spending an additional 8-10 hours a week in a leadership role within my networking chapter. It was exhausting! Fast-forward to the COVID-19 quarantine, where I spent my time working out the pros and cons of networking and voila! We&Co was born, and so was the Huddle!

Why Teams?

Teams is designed to complement We&Co members by offering a broader, more frequent networking opportunity, serving as a potential stepping stone for members to join the elite ranks of Huddles (if they are a right fit, of course). It’s about maximizing professional time and increasing earnings, aligning perfectly with our mission. Teams exemplifies the innovation and commitment to excellence that We&Co members have come to expect.

Join us as we embark on this new journey with our Teams, and discover how We&Co is redefining networking groups. This addition is more than just a service; it’s a new pathway to success, designed with your professional growth in mind!

About We&Co Huddles

We&Co is a professional co-oping & professional networking business that was founded in Springfield, Missouri in 2020. While there are many professional networking groups in and around the United States, We&Co focuses on creating small industry-specific groups with five to ten professionals who all have the same target audience but offer different products and services.

In essence, professionals come to us when they want to save time while making more money. These industry-specific groups are essential pods of professionals surrounded by their ideal referral partners.

These small groups of referral partners (called “Huddles) meet up twice a month for an hour and talk strategy on how to become that one-stop-shop for their clients. If you are a professional who is interested in joining or launching your own We&Co co-op (or “Huddle” as we like to call them), feel free to email us here and remember to sign up for a FREE 14-day trial (no credit card details needed).
