Networking Leads

Do you run your own business or work for yourself and wish that you had a community of like-minded women who share the same experiences as you? If so, join us for a freelancers/entrepreneurs/self-employed networking dinner where we can share our stories. Entrepreneurship and self-employment can be a lonely journey. We go through unique things and experiences, and our ups and downs can feel a lot more intense. But there's no reason why we need to go through this experience alone, when we have a community of women who have experienced what you have, and might even be able to point you in the right direction. It doesn't matter if you're a startup founder, a self-employed designer, or a part-time freelance consultant; anyone and everyone who runs a business is welcome.

Victoria just changed the rules — and most investors haven’t caught up. You can now add a second dwelling (“granny flat”) on many 300m²+ blocks without a planning permit — and legally rent it out. That’s a major shift. And for **[investors looking to increase cashflow](https://events.resultsmentoring.com/meetup-vic.html?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=drn)** without taking on large-scale development risk, this could be one of the most practical opportunities right now. What you’ll learn... ➡️ How the new VIC rules actually work (and where they don’t apply) ➡️ What it really costs to build a granny flat — and what it can return ➡️ How to assess if your property is suitable ➡️ The biggest mistakes investors make (and how to avoid them) ➡️ A clear pathway from idea → construction → rental income **Featured Speaker: Farah Drake** Farah Drake is a Melbourne-based building professional with nearly 30 years of industry experience, combining strong business qualifications with hands-on expertise in construction and project management. A registered Domestic Building Unlimited license holder, she specialises in relocatable homes and granny flats, and has built a reputation as a trusted authority in backyard living solutions, known for her practical knowledge, professionalism, and commitment to delivering high-quality outcomes. **[RSVP now to attend FREE in-person or via Zoom:](https://events.resultsmentoring.com/meetup-vic.html?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=drn)** ➡️ You want to boost rental income from an existing property ➡️ You’re looking for a lower-cost development strategy ➡️ You want to understand if granny flats stack up in today’s market ➡️ You’ve heard about the rule changes but don’t know how to use them These rule changes are still new — early movers will have the advantage. Limited capacity for in-person attendance. **FAQ's** **-> Can I bring someone else along?** Yes, you are welcome to bring anyone who is interested in property investing, renovating, developing - it's all about learning and networking with like-minded investors. Please ask them to RSVP so that we know how many people are coming. **-> What are you selling?** Nothing, these meetups are all about learning and networking with like-minded people. **-> What are my Parking options?** There is plenty of parking in the street. We look forward to seeing you there.

This is about refining how you attract, convert, and retain higher-value clients so growth becomes more predictable and controlled.

**Connected Westerville Night of Networking** *April Edition: The Introduction Economy* You've been to the networking events. You've done the small talk. Collected the cards. Forgotten the names. And walked out feeling like you just wasted two hours of your life. The problem isn't you. It's the format. Most networking events put you in a room and tell you to figure it out. So everyone defaults to elevator pitches and business talk, and nothing real gets built. Here's the truth about networking that most people miss: Your network isn't just who you know. It's who thinks of you when they're talking to someone else. *That's* The Introduction Economy. And it only works when relationships are real. There's a reason people who come once keep coming back. It starts with seven minutes that feel nothing like networking. Then we open it up. Free networking. More conversations. More momentum. This is a room full of corporate professionals, entrepreneurs, business owners, creatives, and career builders in the Westerville and Columbus area. The mix is the magic. You might never do business with everyone you meet tonight. But someone in this room will think of *you.* **By name**. So, the next time someone needs exactly what you do, you get the recommendation. **April 14th. RSVP now.** **When:** Tuesday\, April 14th \| 6:15 PM \-\- 8:00 PM **Where:** Vineyard Community Center \| 6000 Cooper Rd\, Westerville\, OH 43081
