Heres how it works:
A VBN Value Statement is designed to introduce your business to
the members and
guests that attend our VBN meetings. It is not a resume or CV.
It is a well-constructed
introduction that will help others understand your business,
what it is you do, and how
they can refer business to you.
It is not meant to share every aspect of your business, but
rather to provide a brief
snapshot of it, in whole or in part. You will have ample time
both before and after the
VBN meeting to elaborate on your offer while networking.
Heres how to build it:
45 seconds allows you to deliver a maximum of 5 brief sentences.
Here are the 5
sentences we suggest you use in constructing your VBN Value
Statement:
Identity+
Unique Offer
+
Example
+
Ideal Referral
+
