FAQs
-
The Gathering is designed to help you work ON your business and not just IN your business. We do this by:
Having Blue Sky Days
Accountability Triangles
2 x Guest Speakers (both motivational and educational) per month
90 Day Goal Setting
There is no administration sign-up fees and your Membership includes all food and beverages during the meeting. Plus you get access to the business lounge (from 8:30am to 4:00pm) where you can have your business meetings in a professional environment.
And you get access to The Crate for a “FOCUS FRIDAY” one per month (see details below).
-
We all know that working from home can be challenging. Kids, pets or even noisy neighbours can interrupt the creative juices from flowing. And this is where a “FOCUS FRIDAY” comes in…
Once a month, usually on the 3rd Friday of the month, your Membership entitles you to use the facilities at The Crate at no further charge.
If that date doesn’t suit, then talk to the friendly team at The Crate to see if they can fit in your requirements. You can find out more by approaching the front desk team at The Crate for further information.
(Please note that this doesn’t include the use of dedicated meeting spaces.)
-
The Gathering meets weekly, on a Thursday afternoon, from 4:15pm to 6:30pm.
-
The Gathering allows up to two Members per Business Category. That being said, we are looking for:
Tradies - Sparkies, Plumbers, Builders
Accountants
Real Estate Agents
Finance - Loans, Wealth Investment
Insurance - Life and General
-
Nothing. Zip. Nada. It is free for you to come and visit as a guest. All we ask is for you to register yourself so that our team know to expect you. (There are plenty of buttons to click on this page!)
-
Unfortunately, all good things have to come to an end. And that includes guest visits. You are free to visit up to two times before you have to make a decision on whether The Gathering is right for you and you are a good fit for The Gathering.
-
People join The Gathering for three things:
Community
Growth
Accountability
The Membership fee includes food and beverages on the night that you attend, as well as access to The Crate on the “FOCUS FRIDAY”. And you get all this for only $50/week (+GST).
But wait, there’s more…
You can also access the business lounge from 8:30am until 4:00pm (with barista made coffee available at competitive rates).
If you are interested in paying all your fees upfront, please talk to the friendly front office team at The Crate and enquire about the 10% discount that is available.
-
While we recommend investing 12 months into The Gathering, we realise that life happens and sometimes we have to make changes.
In this case, you could apply for a suspension of your Membership (for up to 6 month), or you can terminate your Membership with 3 months notice in writing.
-
For people to buy from you, they have to know, like and trust you. And this doesn’t happen overnight!
We recommend that you make a commitment to attend The Gathering EVERY week. And to arrange coffee catch-ups with your fellow Members. The more you get to know them, the easier it is for you to recommend them. And visa versa!
-
There may be times that you are busy in a meeting that clashes with The Gathering, or you may be out of town (on business or holiday!). No need to fret!
We recommend that you use the SUBSTITUTE SYSTEM. If you know that you can’t make a meeting, PLANAHEAD and instruct a SUBSTITUTE to take your place.
You can ask one of your colleagues to attend in your place. Alternatively, we have access ti a number of professionals who can step in for you. Just make sure that you give them plenty of notice!
