Summit Preparation

Speed Networking Event

Spend time in a networking setting with groups of franchisees that are interested in learning more about the products and services you have to offer. This is your opportunity to wow them! Bring samples, or handouts for the franchisees — whatever suits your fancy! Each Allied Partner is given equal time to meet with franchisees.

Suggestions for Meeting

•  Handouts – to ensure you have enough time during your meeting bring detailed handouts panelist can easily refer to
•  Company fact sheet – New to the JIB system? Create a simple one pager to streamline the conversation and educate panelist
•  Be prepared and deliver your main message quickly
•  Update NFA members on new products, cost saving measures and opportunities
•  Showcase additional services and products members may not be aware of
