Business Connections is a productive and professional referral group. My business has truly benefited from Business Connections of Central Florida….I receive regular referrals as well as being able to refer out my extended sales team to other professionals.John McLoughlin runs these groups in a timely and professional manner. The people that belong to these groups attend regularly and do so with the objective of passing business.

Insurance & Benefit Partners used to belong to other groups and due to the growth and success of attending Business Connections we have directed all our efforts into these groups and belong to 3 of them.

In short Business Connections works.

I started with Business Connections of Central Florida in May of this year and have truly benefited from its purpose, to grow your business one referral at a time. With the professional structure and friendly atmosphere it was easy to learn about the members in the group and I quickly developed a desire to want to be a part of a hard working team.

Being a business connections member requires a commitment to find referrals for your team and in turn they will work just as hard to find referrals for you. In just these 2 months I have received 6 referrals of which all 6 resulted in “closed business.” Not only have I gained strong referrals but also a group of people who will help keep you thinking about growing your business and growing the team.

Best Regards,

Business Connections has been a great asset to out our business, any business looking to join a networking group, and wanting to increase there client base and profit they should visit one of John’s groups and see what they are missing out on.

John also volunteers with me at the Sunshine Foundation, a child’s dream granting charity, and was my main sponsor in May 2010 when I did a 50 mile ultra marathon for the foundation.

Thank you John for all you do for the Sunshine Foundation and for your on going support.

I highly recommend using the services provided by John McLoughlin and Business Connections of Central Florida. This organization has been instrumental in helping me grow my business by helping me get in front of people who I would otherwise not be able to meet. John’s integrity, professionalism and sincerity are genuine and contagious! This group is the answer to building a local business network connecting professionals and business owners. It is one of the best business decisions I’ve ever made.

The first time I went to a Business Connections meeting set up by John I stood up for 20 seconds. I was so scared, but throughout the time I have been a member John has supported me. He has given me more confidence to stand up and talk for a minute.

I have had a few referrals and met a lot of nice people that I have enjoyed talking to and spending time with. I guess I also made a few friends too! John made me feel welcome and gave me a lot of ideas and support to help me grow.

I would like to recommend any business to join one of John’s connection groups to help their business grow and they will get all the help and support and knowledge that John has to make these groups as successful as they are.

I would like to say a big thank you to John for all the help and support you give!

I have been a part of many referral organizations, but my Thursday morning Business Connections group is the only group that I have remained a member of since I started networking. John McLoughlin’s referral group keeps me motivated, focused and passionate about my business. I have seen at least a 30 percent increase in my production since I became a member of Business Connections. Unlike other referral organizations, John McLoughlin is more concerned with the growth of your business as opposed to just his. The amount of enthusiasm, positivity and dedication that he possesses is not common in this day in age. My Thursday morning group is a meeting I never miss and one of the reasons why I have been successful in my line of work.
