Matawan-based organization helps business owners expand

MATAWAN–Helping business owners better strategize to grow their companies, Network Exchange offers members plans through education, connections and promotions.

A professional resource for New Jersey businesses, the newly-launched “Network Exchange” was introduced to provide members with the resources and networking support necessary to successfully grow organizations and launch new products or services, according to a prepared statement from Network Exchange.

Founded May 2018, this includes online and interpersonal access to wide-ranging educational material, marketing tools and meet and greet opportunities- all designed to help members expand or create opportunities with the expert input of talented professionals and business owners such as alliance team members Lori Brand, Kate Rafferty and Makarand Uptat.

“Many individuals, despite their expertise have neither the time or motivation to continually promote themselves through online tools like Facebook LinkedIn and YouTube,” Network Exchange founder Jessica Apgar said. “‘Network Exchange’ can help members do all this while enhancing visibility to other members through the continued access and ongoing update of our networking website, advertising materials and in-person professional events.”

Network Exchange provides members with the marketing and networking resources needed to increase the visibility of businesses, services and products. This includes everything from new business launch insights to meet and greet activities held to facilitate the development of fresh, mutually-rewarding professional relationships.

“Meeting new people is hard,” Gayle Goldner said, the Network Exchange director of business development. “Meeting professionals that can help you expand your business into new markets and increase profitability is even harder. We are dedicated to providing the linchpin to these opportunities and ability to spur company growth with the marketing communications resources, networking support and professional relationships that drive business success no matter the industry or business size.”

While other similar organizations focus solely on networking or referrals, Network Exchange is dedicated to serving businesses big and small with the professional resources needed to grow and improve the awareness and reach of businesses as well as entrepreneurial skillsets.

These support tools include:

  • website access to educational videos, podcasts, articles and white papers.
  • member directories including referral lists of potential business partners and associates.
  • online member forum participation.
  • personal and online participation in all educational sessions;
  • corporate spotlight opportunities on the Network Exchange website.
  • Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube channel promotional opportunities;
  • mentor program participation.
  • calendar of events for other organization networking groups and events.
  • one-on-one interview and brainstorming sessions as well as get-togethers with the organization’s alliance and leadership teams.
  • tailor-made concierge services and educational resources designed to enhance and/or provide expert writing, editing, graphics, logo and presentation skills.
  • licensing and crowd-funding support.

“It is not enough to simply sport a logo or deliver an elevator speech now and then to attract new customers or fresh talent,” Apgar said. “New business takes time, effort and a whole lot of patience. Network Exchange was launched to simplify the entire process in a professional atmosphere that commands the mutual respect of fellow members.”
