Your profile description is your first chance to make an impact when someone hovers over your photo. Keep the text brief and to the point. Based on your description, others will decide whether to request a meeting with you.

Choose your words carefully—this is your elevator pitch. Be concise. Write openly about what you are looking for and what you offer.

Be honest and authentic—this always works. Think about what you would want to learn from someone else's profile text. How long of a text would you be willing to read?

Don’t hesitate to ask for a meeting with other participants. There's no reason to be shy or over analyze it! Remember, the whole event is about networking — not necessarily about closing a deal. Business opportunities often arise through networking.

Every person you meet carries their own network, and you never know where a key connection for you might come from.

That's why every meeting is important, and you can't predict exactly what each meeting will bring. Be open and bold when arranging meetings — this will make the event more effective.

Preparing for business meetings helps you achieve your goals, establish connections and feel more relaxed and confident during the meetings.

By preparing, you also show your interest and demonstrate your willingness to find collaboration opportunities. Before the meetings you can think these questions: 
1. What do we already have in common? 
2. What could we share in common in the future?
3. My goals with the company who I'm meeting up with?
4. Next steps for the future?

In the Matchmaking events, pre-scheduled meetings are binding. Treat them as you would any other business meetings you have arranged in advance. Be present at the agreed time.

If you are unable to attend, make sure to cancel well in advance BEFORE SCHEDULED MEETING TIMES.

By notifying others of your cancellation, you ensure that your company maintains a positive image.

If you can't participate to the event, changes can be easily made through the event page under "My Details" - "Exit the event."

When it comes to customer acquisition, keep in mind that, in addition to the direct meeting between two people, the networks of both parties are also meeting. Within anyone's network, there could be your key client or the perfect partner, or vice versa!

So, be open and boldly present your services to as many people as possible!

You never know where a business opportunity might arise.

Getting invited to a meeting feels nice by default. Even if you initially think that you and the other person have nothing in common based on the profile description, asking for a meeting is still a good idea. The person will feel wanted and interesting.

There’s no need to be afraid or ashamed of selling. In these events, it’s encouraged. Additionally, most people attending the event understand how vital sales are.

BusinessMaker’s concept is to offer an environment where creating customer contacts and marketing your business can happen without needing to present to a large audience. In the events, participants do not give speeches or perform in front of an audience or group.

You are warmly welcome just as you are!

BusinessMaker's model is designed to create a user-friendly and seamless event experience.

We aim to provide participants with a relaxed and pleasant networking experience, allowing them to focus on meetings rather than managing their own schedules.

With BusinessMaker handling the scheduling, there are more options for meeting partners, and thanks to our scheduling algorithm, more meetings can be arranged in a shorter amount of time.

This enables a clear and hassle-free way to network effectively. When users don’t have to worry about creating their own schedules, they have more resources to focus on the meeting itself and its content.
