Referral Team

Referral Team Business referral networking group

We are a group of small business owners who work together to support and look out for opportunities for each other.

Fortnightly face-to-face meetings in Northwich, Cheshire, designed to help you grow your business. Referral Team is an independent business networking group run on a not-for-profit basis for the benefit of our members and attendees. We meet every Thursday morning at 8am. We alternate between face-to-face and online meetings so we get to enjoy the best of both worlds and the flexibility that comes

with it. Our meetings are relaxed and welcoming and are designed to help find referrals and identify opportunities for all involved. In order to encourage strong relationships we only allow one person from each profession to become a member. However, we love to have visitors along from the areas where the category of business is not yet reserved and we don't restrict the number of times a visitor can come along.

What do you get when you mix business networking, padel, sunshine and a bit of healthy competition?

A brilliant day raising money for Hope House Children's Hospice. 🎾

Our Referral Team charity padel tournament brought members, visitors and supporters together for an afternoon of rallies, laughs, raffle prizes and plenty of encouragement from the sidelines. There may have been a few competitive streaks on show too...

Together, we raised an amazing £618.50, plus Gift Aid, for Hope House & Tŷ Gobaith Children's Hospice. A huge thank you to everyone who played, donated raffle prizes, bought tickets and helped make the day such a success. Special thanks go to William Buxton and Sarah Birdsey Solicitor, whose hard work and determination made the whole event happen.

Referral Team is about much more than networking. It's about bringing people together, supporting each other and giving something back to our community. 💙🎾

A website can book you a holiday, but rather than scrolling through hundreds of options yourself, Jacqui Ireland starts with you. Where do you want to go? More importantly, what do you not want from your holiday?

She told us about how she offers a personal service in her Referral Team presentation. She uses her knowledge and specialist travel partners to create an experience that fits, whether that's a beach escape, a bucket list adventure, a skiing trip or a family holiday.

There's no extra cost compared with booking yourself, but you also get expert advice, ABTA and ATOL protection, and someone who's there if plans change.

If you’re looking to book your next holiday, have a chat with Jacqui.

Insurance isn't usually the first thing that people would describe as interesting.

But Ian Bridge from McQuillan Insurance proved otherwise at Referral Team.

He asked us: Who or what closed the Strait of Hormuz?

The answer isn’t a country, a leader or a military force. It was insurance.

Without insurers willing to cover the risk, ships can't move through one of the world's busiest trade routes. No insurance means no shipping. No shipping means goods don't move.

Insurance sits behind far more of our everyday lives than most of us ever think about. Businesses, transport, trade, events... so much only happens because someone is prepared to insure it.

How do you know if you're charging enough?

Paula Cohen from Taylory says it’s not by looking at your competitors, or by going with your gut. She says to think about value.

Customers don't buy the hours you put in. They buy the difference you make.

She suggested going back through your testimonials and WhatsApp messages. They often tell you exactly what people value about working with you.

If pricing is something you wrestle with, Paula has put together a free guide to help you think it through. You can download it here: https://taylory.co.uk/free-guide/

If your child gets excited when there's post with their name on it...

Emma Moores has created something they'll love.

She has just introduced us to her new children's stamp subscription, designed to get youngsters learning, creating and writing letters through the post.

It’s a refreshingly simple idea in a world where everything seems to involve another screen.

99.25%.

That was the highest rate of income tax in modern UK history.

Thankfully, things have changed a bit since then!

Paul Kavanagh, Chartered Financial Planner from Kavanagh & Associates Wealth Management, started his 5-minute spotlight this morning with that statistic before asking another question:
How much money can you have before paying tax?

Most people immediately think of the personal allowance.

But as Paul explained, it's not always that simple.
Using ISAs, pensions and other allowances correctly can make a huge difference. In fact, Paul shared an example of a client with more than £80,000 invested who isn't paying any income tax or capital gains tax because their money is in the right places.

Anyone looking to reduce their personal tax liability and make better use of the allowances available to them should get in touch with Paul.
