Eltham VERY Casual Business Networking for entrepreneurs of all stages

I'm very excited to visit Eltham to meet business minded people!

Do you run a business or thinking about starting a business?
This meetup event is for entrepreneurs of all stages. Whether you have been in it for a while or whether you are just starting out in your journey, you're invited to join me and other people of like mind for a coffee and chat! Share some experiences, tips and encouragement with fellow entrepreneurs

What to expect. Can't get any more casual than meeting at McDonalds! Grab a coffee and/or some food, bring a few business cards and an open mind. You'll never know what comes up in discussion. There won't be name tags or standing up to present, it's very, very casual and a great environment for true networking.

Don't worry if you're running late, or need to leave early. We all need to run a business and live life. I'll be at the venue at the allocated time, but you're welcome to come and leave as you please. Even if you only have 30 minutes it will be great to hear your story.

If it is going to be your first time coming along, I'll personally introduce you to people on the day. Any further questions? you can check out the FAQ section below or message me HERE

See you soon!

Frequently Asked Questions

How to Find Us
I'll be sitting at one of the tables at McDonald's near the entrance. You can also check out this video to know what I look like before you come so you know who to approach! I'll make sure where I'm sitting, is visible when you come in.

Why did you start the Coffee with Arthur events?
In June 2022 I was at the local cafe, tapping away on my laptop working on a document of some sort. I thought to myself, "Wouldn't it be nice to meet some business people, and to have some time with people of like mind?" So I put my first event up and pressed "PUBLISH" and here we are!

Do you take photos at your events?
I don't take group photos. People of all levels of success and stages do come through the events, and this is a decision to respect everyone's privacy.

How many people usually turn up to the Coffee with Arthur events?
We have had between 3 to 25 people attending some events. I never know until the day. But rest assured that whether its 1 or 100 RSVPs, I'll still run the event. This event is listed both here an on Eventbrite!

Can I expect to get a lot of leads or business collaboration?
This event is more for business people to connect with each other, and have some time and a coffee with others of like mind! If you get leads or business collaborations (and it does happen at times) that is a bonus!

Am I expected to come every time?
No. Some people come more often, some people come once every six months. Some people come once and decide it's not for them. Just come when it suits you.

Do I need to RSVP to come?
While an RSVP is not really required. It's better to RSVP so I can send you a message if there are last minute cancellations like illness or broken down car etc. Also, if you RSVP and can't make it, don't stress! There's always a next time.

Hold on! What's the catch?
I've been running these events since June 2022 and have never charged for the events. It doesn't cost me much to keep the events going. It's something I love to attend myself, so for me, it's a bit of time out, a chance to meet a few people and my little way of giving back to the business community.

Why McDonald's?
I rotate between some cafes and McDonald's. McDonald's are generally easy to find, have plenty of parking and seats! I also like how casual it is!
