Welcome to Buddha Connect Limited's
Blog-Site

Buddha Connect is a business consulting brand, which manages business & networking events. Our owner; James Brodie is an experienced professional networker & super-connector. He is part of the Business Buzz community & manages locally focused business teams that deliver the Business Buzz, no fuss format of networking to locations across the Metropolitan Boroughs of Birmingham, Coventry & Solihull as well as the counties of  Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Rutland, Warwickshire & Worcestershire.

“I believe Business Buzz offers true & honest networking opportunities, where real lasting business connections are made. I love the open no fuss format” says James. “From my own experiences, I know the power that Buzz brings to local business communities. Buzz is probably the best way to elevate your business & personal profiles locally, across the regional & nationally.  Business Buzz has supported me to become the go-to person for connections & referrals in across the Midlands.  Business Buzz has opened the door to many new opportunities”. James is a Business Buzz advocate & is well connected across the East & West Midlands. 

James continues, "In my opinion, the toughest part of being a self-employed business owner is feeling as if everything rests & lies on my shoulders. The truth is that for the most part this is right. However, there are so many business owners feeling the same, who have different, yet complimentary skills set to mine & who have knowledge that, like me they are keen to share. Collaboration is the success driver for most business owners in 21st century."

Being both a Business Buzz Regional Lead & local event Host means that I have an opportunity to meet like-minded business owners & people from across the Midlands. Buzz is the best place to meet, connect & share the ups & downs of being a small business owner. It is a supportive environment, where people just like you & me can build those all-important lasting business relationships.

Cannot see a Buzz for your town or city in the Midlands? Have you considered becoming a Business Buzz Host?  If there is not a Buzz in your town or city, why not talk with me about how to get one of our no fuss networking events up & running in Atherstone, Bromsgrove, Corby, Evesham, Kettering, Kidderminster, Malvern, Redditch, or Sutton Coldfield? Or across the wider Midlands in The Black Country, Derbyshire, Herefordshire, Nottinghamshire, Shropshire & Staffordshire.

If you are a business owner based in the Midlands, looking for a way to elevate your personal & business brands within your local business community, need support with marketing your business & would like to be more than just a visitor at Buzz, then there are opportunities to become a Buzz Host at some of our established networking events where I am looking for a NEW HOST to take the helm at Brackley & Stratford-upon-Avon.

Business Buzz are the market leaders in the no fuss networking arena. "No one else does what we do anywhere near as well as we do it", says James. Buzz is complimentary to almost all other kinds of business networking. He continues "My blogs are designed to support our Buzz communities by giving insights into some best practice around running a small business. I too am a small business owner. Since setting up my business back in 2017, I have changed direction, to make Buzz the heart of my business, & acquired a vast array of new skills. If I can make another person journey to being a smarter business owner more straightforward then I will have achieved my goals".
