Adrian …How DBN has helped me grow my business
“Power-Kelly, Commercial Property Consultants have been proud members of DBN for more than 11 years. Pleased to say our experience has been consistently positive, with business opportunities and mutual support being constant features. Being a member of DBN is essentially having an extended sales team for me looking for potential referrals and also a large pool of experience in all spheres when you need.”
“If I ever have a query or business need I can be guaranteed that there is an existing or past member whom I can call on to assist. Invariably the response is positive, immediate and confidential. Add to this the social aspect through events, casual coffee chats and/or pints, and you have a real winner”. “Many other Networking groups tend to be overly statistics driven. Only referrals count. DBN is different. While we are all business people seeking opportunities and referrals, the active focus on the support and social elements sets DBN apart. Like me, many are long time members (some are even returning members) and that says plenty. It’s not just the business generated, DBN is support and friendship”.

Elio …How DBN has helped me grow my business
“I am a member of the Dublin Business Network since inception and being a member has allowed me the opportunity to meet like minded business people who have one thing in common, that is to help other people by way of mentoring or sound advice in their business”. “This in turn generates business for all members in the Network. It is so rewarding to be in a room each week with people who are friends and colleagues with the same goal objectives”.
“I began my career as an apprentice locksmith in 1983 with what is a my family’s business. I eventually took over my father’s role as a physical security consultant designing bespoke security systems and devices for all sectors. We then started to install the CCTV and intruder alarms that complimented the physical locks, door and barriers that we were recommending, designing and installing. In more recent times we have added Fire Detection and prevention to complete our offering as a “Building Support Company” offering maintenance and certification to fire, lifing, safety and security systems.
Steven ..How DBN has helped me grow my business
“I was invited to joined DBN in January of 2013, I reluctantly attended the first meeting expecting it to be just another network group but my experience of that first meeting encouraged me to join the following week, This big difference for me was the comradery among the members, There was no forced referrals being passed, each one was a qualified lead with the potential for real business, I found that very refreshing, and now 10 years later some of the faces have changes but that ethos is still there to help fellow members and promote quality referrals”.

Andy …How DBN has helped me grow my business
“I’ve been a member of the DBN for just over two years now. Whilst the group is founded on being a referral network, what has really struck me during my time with them is the level of support that’s offered between the members. Even those who have left the group over that time continue to be part of the ‘network’ and the relationships that have been developed continue to exist long after they have left”
