Business Owners Walk & Coffee @ Battersea Park Saturday 10 am
Own Account London Circle
A peer circle for independent business owners who don’t fit traditional networking, business memberships or socialising.
Building a business in London is lonely. Not in a way you’d admit out loud - but in a way you feel on a Saturday afternoon when there’s no one to call, or when you have a small win and nobody around you really gets it.
I wanted to start something I couldn’t find.
I’m looking for a small group of confident, independent business owners in London to occasionally meet for a walk, a coffee/tea, no forced agenda, no speaker, no pitch. Just honest conversations about business, life, growth and wellbeing with people who understand the life you’ve chosen and face the same challenges.
Real accountability doesn’t come from a paid programme or assigned accountability partner. It comes from people you genuinely know, care about and want to impress.
You’ll fit if you are:
\- Approx 35–55\, based in London
\- Running a business\, agency or independent practice
\- Not a startup\, not eligible for £3m\+ founder clubs
\- Socially selective \- looking for peers\, not contacts
\- Want connection\, not exposure
This is not:
\- A networking or pitching opportunity
\- A startup mastermind or business course
\- A front for an organisation\, membership or upsell
\- A support group or therapy session
\- A dating event or after\-work drinks
\- An online community
You might relate to some of these:
\- The people around you \(friends\, family\, partner\) don’t really get it\.
\- You work alone most of the time\, or your relationships are purely professional\.
\- You moved to London and don't know many people\.
\- You don't want to be pressured to share \- but if you do\, you’ll be heard and supported\.
\- You want a small\, easy circle where conversation actually goes somewhere\.
\- Who you’re becoming is as important as what you’re building\.
\- You’d like a few hours outdoors\, clear your head and enjoy like\-minded company\.
First meet:
\- Battersea Park
\- Saturday morning
\- Walk and a coffee/tea
\- Simple introduction
\- Max 6 people
If you read this and thought “finally” - let’s meet :)

ask their contact details right then and there... like the old times ;)

because they all will be!

F\*ck the Small Talk has travelled the world across Berlin, Mexico City, Melbourne, Lisbon, Medellin, Vienna, and now back to London for its 3rd year in a row! 😎
**📦 WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?**
FTST is a **one-of-a-kind social experience** where strangers come together for an afternoon of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. It’s also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!
Join us for **games**, **talks**, and **connections** with **friends you haven’t met yet**. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in London every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life, this is the place for you. 🙌
**📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?**
We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. You’ll never have to speak in public if you don’t want to.
**📣 NOTE**: We won't validate your payment unless you've been accepted! (which you most likely will ❤️)

**💛 WHAT THEY SAY**
🗣 “This is the kind of activity humanity needs every weekend. Thank you for all.” - Sonya
🗣 “F\*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.” - Monika
🗣 “I loved F\*ck the small talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!” - Brenda
🗣 “Lively, interesting, introspective, completely open, and no judgment. Everyone that joined was ready for great conversation and helped with different perspectives. So much fun! I can't wait for the next one! “ - Yaz

🤓 FAQ
**• Can I come alone?**
Of course, in fact, we encourage it!
**• Can I be late?**
Please don't! "Doors" open at 11:45am and we start at exactly 12:00pm! Late arrivals will disrupt the floooooooow.
**• I signed up but never got an invite. Why?**
We usually get a high volume of sign-ups yet we like to keep it cozy & only invite around 25 people. We believe this is a good number to ensure an awesome experience, and we’ve learned that it’s easier to build connections with smaller groups! Please try again next time if do not receive an invite - no hard feelings 💛
**• Why do you charge?**
We value our time and put a lot of love, planning, and effort into creating & designing these experiences. 💛 This is our project/business and what we give to the world and we think everything should be a fair exchange! 🎈 However, money should never be the reason for people not to attend. If you can’t afford it simply get in touch with us :)
**• I'm digging this! Can I get involved somehow?**
Sure thing, send us a message!
**• Can I bring my pet (llama)?**
100% yes (depends on the venue, ask us!)

Marketing Monday Networking
Monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners. One specific topic, one to three actions you can run this week.
You can be the best at what you do and still be invisible. If local buyers cannot find you, the phone does not ring.
Marketing Monday Lunch + Learn is a monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners focused on building relationships, local networking, and local marketing. Every kind of local business welcome. No pitch round, no pressure, no upsell.
**This month**
Most local businesses pick one or two places to be visible and call it good. The result is inconsistent calls and a feeling that marketing is not working. We will walk through the three places every local business needs to show up, plus the fourth place most owners ignore that quietly produces the warmest leads.
**What to expect**
Doors open at noon. Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson. You leave knowing people and with one to three actions to run that week. The room is reserved through 1:30 PM.
**Who this is for**
Any local business owner who wants clearer marketing direction and real local relationships. Service businesses, retail, home services, professional services, online owners building local presence, anyone serious about being part of the Columbus business community.
**Not the right fit if**
You are here to pitch the room or recruit for an MLM.
**Details**
* Second Monday of every month
* 12:00 to 1:30 PM
* Good Cafe Easton, 4400 Easton Commons, Ste 150, Columbus, OH 43219
* Order lunch and drinks at the counter when you arrive
* Free to attend, RSVP required, space is limited

CBusData - Highlights and Hidden Gems in SQL Server 2025
Highlights and Hidden Gems in SQL Server 2025
With so much emphasis on cloud data platforms and AI these days, SQL people can feel left behind by all the marketing hype. SQL Server 2025 was officially released in November of 2025, though, and contains a ton of improvements that will make our SQL Server deployments a bit faster, better, and more secure. There are even more improvements tucked into the release that never made a marketing blog or press release that you'll likely be learning about for the first time in this session!
Join this session to learn about what makes your high availability a little more available, your performance a bit more performant, and your database more developer and app-friendly. Come spend an hour with SQL people talking SQL Server 2025 – the good, the "not quite ready for prime time", and the hidden awesomeness.

If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building.
While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability.
Lewis Center Networking Lunch
Join us for lunch and meet our very successful group. We are each others sales team...always looking for referrals for our members. If you are looking for new clients, let us help you out! Bring your business cards and brochures to share with us.
We have a speaker each week so that we can learn about their business.
Because we have only one member per business, we have many of the spots filled. However, we are specifically looking for an estate attorney, a handyman/electrician, and an event planner. We have referrals for you!
All visitors are welcome. Any questions contact [pmarchio@farmersagent.com](mailto:pmarchio@farmersagent.com)
