Network with the right entrepreneurs. Build connections that move your business forward.

Networking Habits brings entrepreneurs, professionals and problem solvers together for real conversations, useful introductions and relationships worth continuing.

Guest Introductions

You’re not short on contacts.You’re short on the right relationships.

A packed contact list means very little if nobody really knows what you do, who you help or when to introduce you. Networking Habits creates room for better conversations, practical follow-up and connections that can grow into something useful.

Constant pitches, no listening

Events where everyone rushes to sell their product immediately, leaving zero space to learn what others actually need.

Dead business cards

Stacks of names and contact cards collected in an hour, but with no context or genuine reason to follow up later.

Overlooked capability

You have a great service and solid work ethic, but the specific decision-makers who need your help still do not know you exist.

Building alone

Trying to grow a business in isolation without a reliable, supportive circle of peers to exchange trusted referrals with.

“The goal is not to meet everyone. It is to meet people worth knowing, and give them a reason to remember you.”

Simple 3-Step Process

How the Monday Meeting Works

No complicated onboarding, no forced memberships upfront. Experience the format in three easy steps.

1

Reserve your free seat

Tell us who you are and where to send the meeting details. You will get immediate access to the calendar invite and Zoom coordinates.

2

Share what you do

You will have a short opportunity (2 to 3 minutes) to explain who you help and the kind of connection or introduction you are looking for.

3

Continue the right conversations

Use the room and connection chat to follow up with people where there is a genuine fit and mutual opportunity to support one another.

Weekly Format

One useful introduction can change the direction of a business.

Every week, problem solvers gather to learn what others do and build reciprocal relationships. We believe in practical support over high-pressure networking games.

Ian Tolson's networking group is fantastic. Business Networking is all about human connection and forging relationships with people. When you meet people that you are confident you can put your name on the line to recommend them to others you know you've found a good networking partner. Every person I've met in Ian's networking group gives me that confidence. I highly recommend this group.

I'm stepping into the entrepreneurial world and was looking for a good space to level up my network and this was how I found Ian's networking group through meet up. He's definitely building something great here and what I loved about my first meeting experience was that it's all about having genuine interactions with professionals from all across the board. There's also a no strings attached approach and I can see that Ian genuinely cares about people finding success, whatever that may look like for them. Can't wait to read your new book Ian. Keep it going.
