Does it cost me anything to request an introduction?

No. There is no introduction fee for people seeking help. If you choose to work with a provider, you agree their charges directly with them.

How do you earn money?

Participating providers pay me an agreed success fee when an introduction becomes a paying client. I consider suitability when deciding whom to introduce.

Do I have to use the person you introduce?

No. The introduction gives you a starting point. You decide whether their services and approach are right for you.

What if you don’t know someone suitable?

I’ll tell you. I won’t force an introduction simply to make a connection.

Do I need to be an EBN member?

No. The Right Introduction is separate from EBN membership and is open to people seeking suitable professional and business services.

personal introductions. thoughtfully made.

Know what you need, but not who to ask?

For your personal life, your home or your business.

Tell me what you need and what matters most to you. I'll personally introduce you to someone who's right for you.

Tell me what you need

There’s no charge to you for the introduction, and no obligation to work with the person I introduce.

More than a name and number

Someone who's right for you.

You can find plenty of people offering the same service. Knowing who you’d feel comfortable choosing is the harder part.

Perhaps you want someone who explains things clearly, understands a particular situation, or takes the time to listen. Whatever matters to you, I take that into account when making your introduction.

Whether it’s for you, your home or your business, I’ll connect you with someone who can help and who feels like a good fit.

How it works

A Conversation. A Personal Introduction.

It starts with you telling me what you need. I’ll listen, think about who would suit you, and make the introduction.

1

Let's talk.

Tell me what you’re looking for and what matters to you.

You don’t need a polished brief.

A conversation is enough.

2

I connect the dots.

I’ll think about who in my network would be right for you, taking into account both the help you need and the person you’d like to work with.

3

Meet your introduction.

I’ll introduce you personally, explaining why I thought you should meet. You can have a conversation and decide what happens next.

Tell me what you’re looking for

A simple conversation with a real person who takes the time to understand what you need.

Who do you wish you

knew?

Perhaps there’s something you’ve been putting off because you don’t know who to trust.

A job that needs doing at home, some support for your business, or something personal you'd rather talk through with someone who understands.

You might know exactly what help you need. Or you might only know what you're trying to achieve, and need a conversations to work out the rest.

Tell me about it. You don't need to know someone's job title to ask for an introduction.

I'm simply bringing together something I've been doing naturally for years, so I can create more opportunities when they're really needed.

Knowing people, understanding people, and helping the right people to meet.

the person behind the introduction

I'm Nadine.

Connecting people is what I do.

For years, I've been the person people ask

'Do you know someone who...?'

And very often, I do.

Through running Effective Business Network, my work with Federation of Small Businesses, and helping business owners with websites and systems through The Wow Effect, I've built an extensive, varied network. I've spent time getting to know, and more importantly, trust the people in it.

Every introduction gets real thought.

What do you need?

What matters to you?

Why this person?

And does it make sense for them, too?

I want both people to understand why I've connected them and feel good about the conversation ahead.

let's start with a conversation

Tell Me What You Need.

Whether it's for you, your home, your business, tell me what you're looking for and what matters to you.

for service providers

Good At What You Do?
I'd like to know you.

I'm always interested in meeting people who care about their work and the people they do it for.

Tell me what you do, who you help, and the work you'd like more of. Getting to know you helps me recognise when an introduction could be right for both of you.

Before I introduce you to anyone, I take time to understand how you work. Every introduction has my name behind it, so it’s important that I feel confident making it.

Becoming a trusted partner involves a personal application process. Acceptance isn’t automatic: I take time to get to know you and your work before deciding whether I can confidently recommend you.

Introduce yourself

your questions answered

A few things you might be wondering.

Whether you need an introduction or provide a service, we’ll start with a phone call, then meet in person where possible, or online, so we can both ask questions. Until then, here are a few things you might like to know.

Does it cost me anything to ask for an introduction?

No. There's no charge to you for the introduction. If you choose to work with the person I introduce, you agree the cost of their services directly with them.

Do I have to work with the person you introduce?

No. You can have an initial conversation, ask questions, and decide whether they're right for you. There's no obligation to take it further.

Is this just for businesses?

No. You can ask for help with something in your personal life, your home, your job, your business. Or you might even know a friend or family member who is looking for some help.

What if I'm not sure who I need?

No problem. Tell me what you're trying to achieve or what you need help with. You don't need to have all the answers before we talk, that's for us to figure out together.

How do you choose who to introduce?

I consider the help you need, what matters to you, and who would be a good fit. I also think about whether the introduction makes sense for the other person.

How does The Right Introduction make money?

The service provider pays an fee if the introduction leads to new business. Their first successful introduction costs £29. Any fee for future introductions is agreed with them in advance.

How soon will I hear from you?

I'll get back to you personally to talk through your enquiry within 2 working days. The time needed to make an introduction will depend on what you're looking for and the availability of the people involved.
