You’ve mastered your craft, but what about business?
If you’re green in business, you probably want to:

Connect Local is your marketing plan, and your growth plan
It gives you the structure and support you need to get more leads and build a better business. It’s all about getting in the right room with the right people — people who’ll support your goals and send the right opportunities your way because they know what you do and trust you to do it.
Meet fortnightly with a local circle of business owners who’ve got your back
Access training and tools that’ll help you grow your business even faster
Demonstrate your value and build trust through D32’s online member channels
Get invited to other D32 events attended by members of all levels (not just Local)
Circle meetings
This is a committed group of local business owners you’ll meet with every two weeks — same faces, same room, building trust over time.
Because trust is everything when it comes to giving (and getting) referrals.
Honestly, most people who join won’t get consistent referrals in the first 6 months. That’s because 6 to 12 months is usually how long it takes for you to show the circle you’re trustworthy.
Once you’ve done that… once you’ve proven you’re in it to give, not just to take, that is when the magic happens.
Each meeting follows a structured agenda designed to give you space to learn, connect, and grow. There’s time for networking, shout-outs, member-driven education, breakfast, and a good laugh.
It isn’t a coffee catch-up (although there is coffee; we aren’t psychopaths). It’s a meeting with your team, your cheer squad, your family.
“The community is very supportive and I've really enjoyed getting to meet some like-minded business owners.”
— Nicholas Hind
“This is more than just a business networking group, it's your team, your cheer squad, it's your family”
— Jamie-lee Spencer, Elevate Rise
Think you’re a fit?
Seats are limited, and the group is carefully curated to make sure the right people are in the room. Notably, we only allow one member per profession (so you’ll never be competing with someone who does what you do).
Connect Local is a great fit if you:
- Run a service or trade business and want to grow through referrals
- Are ready to show up, contribute, and build real relationships
- Want to be part of a group that supports your goals
If that sounds like you, please take 2 minutes to submit an enquiry. Then we’ll call you to talk about your business goals and make sure you’re the right fit.
