Business networking in Lytham - come and join us.

Business networking doesn't have to feel intimidating, overly formal or uncomfortable.

Shout Network brings businesses together through friendly, professional networking groups across the North West where genuine relationships come before hard selling.

Whether you've been networking for 20 years or you've never attended a business networking meeting in your life, you're equally welcome.

Come along to our Shout Network Lytham Friday Morning Group meeting, meet local business owners and professionals, share what you do and get to know people who could become useful contacts, collaborators and friends.

What happens at a Shout meeting?

Professional, but not stuffy. Structured, but not rigid. Business-focused, but still enjoyable.

Our meetings combine informal conversations with a friendly, structured format. You can expect time to network, an opportunity to share good news and referrals, a short 60-second shout-out to introduce your business, and a member presentation. Meetings are normally chaired by a group member, with the Shout team there to help.

New to networking?

You are in the right place. We know that walking into a room full of people you don't know can feel daunting. That's completely normal.

If you're attending Shout Network for the first time, tell us. Our team will explain what happens before you arrive, answer any questions and make sure somebody is there to welcome you. When you arrive we'll help you settle in and introduce you to people.

There is no expectation that you'll instantly know how networking works. That's what we're here to help with.

Please read before booking - single-sector availability.

Shout Network operates single-sector networking groups, meaning there is normally one member representing each business sector within a group.

After you book, your regional Shout Network group manager will check availability for your business sector and get back to you as soon as possible. Booking and payment do not confirm that your sector has been accepted. Please wait for the manager's confirmation before attending.

If we cannot accommodate your chosen group for any reason, we will discuss another suitable group or arrange a full refund.

Visitor tickets and existing paid members.

A guest visit costs £15 in total, including VAT and Eventbrite fees. Online bookings for each meeting close 24 hours before it starts to allow time for sector checks.

Existing paid Shout Network members can visit eligible other groups without paying the guest fee, subject to sector availability. Use the member promotional code supplied by Shout Network when booking.

Not sure which meeting is right for you?

With networking groups across different locations and times of day, choosing the best place to start isn't always obvious. Contact the Shout office and we'll happily provide a one-to-one networking analysis.

We'll ask a little about your business, who you want to meet, your target customers, location, availability and previous networking experience. We can then recommend the groups and opportunities likely to suit you best. There's no obligation - it is simply a conversation designed to help you get the most from business networking.

Why our members enjoy Shout Network Lytham Friday Morning Group?

“I have been a Shout member for many years now and it is hands down one of the best networking groups that I attend. The members are really supportive and whilst we are all serious about our businesses and recommending each other to our clients and connections, we also have a lot of fun at the meetings. Andy is a brilliant network host and is always available outside of the meetings to connect you with other people from the network. I wouldn’t have been a member for so long if it didn’t work!”
