HOW IT WORKS

Leadshare works because relationships grow business! Not sure if your business is a fit? Each group welcomes visitors up to 2 times giving guests the opportunity to explore the benefits.

PURPOSE - Meet weekly or bi-weekly to help member businesses flourish through:

The exchange of leads/referrals
Meeting other professionals
Involvement in The Fauquier Chamber

ELIGIBILITY

Must be a current member of the Fauquier Chamber with dues no more than 30 days past due.
One member per profession, product or service.
A Fauquier Chamber member may visit each group twice as a guest.

RECORDING LEADS & REFERRALS

Only leads & referrals for member businesses within the same group will be accepted.
Each group’s leadership team will be notified when a member from their specific groups submits an entry.
The Chamber will give an update on who is in the running between each Leadshare.
Monthly membership spotlight for business that submits the most qualified leads & referrals recorded from all groups.
The Leadership team will review and determine if the submission is qualified.
A qualified lead is:
- A true, possible business transaction.
- Passed to a member of the group
- A member refers another member to any business

OTHER REQUIREMENTS

Only one business may be promoted per The Fauquier Chamber membership and per Leadshare membership. If the member is involved in more than one business, an additional The Fauquier Chamber membership will need to be established.
A Leadshare member may have a coworker or business partner attend a meeting in his or her absence. The purpose of this is to allow continual representation by the business.
A business may be in a separate group but generally no more than 2 groups per business.
Eligibility for vacancies in specific industries will be filled from the master list of individuals interested in membership maintained at the Fauquier Chamber offices and posted on the Leadshare webpage.
Once a member leaves the group (voluntary/non-voluntary), the membership will not be held and the industry and/or business type will be open for others.
If a member has more than one area of expertise, they may only represent one area. Once the member is approved, that one area of expertise, only that one area may be promoted, discussed or advertised within the group.

BECOMING A BETTER NETWORKER

Tips to be a better Networker:

Develop a brief (under 60 seconds) description of your business.
Keep a supply of business cards or contact info available for your fellow Leadshare members. You never know when the opportunity will arise to hand them out.
Be a good listener. Talking less will provide clues to potential prospects for you and fellow Leadshare members.
Success and prosperity begin with generous referrals. Take advantage of every opportunity to support colleagues. It will pay off in returned referrals and support.
Deliver the best possible products and service to network referrals. Good service brings more referrals and more business.

Vint Hill Leadshare meets on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of each month with a goal of serving businesses that either are or aspiring to do business within the Vint Hill area.

Leads include referrals of prospective clients, names of major representatives, or information on organizations which may generate additional leads or networking opportunities.

Members gain intimate knowledge of each other's services, capabilities, and business values allowing them to better understand the type of leads that will best benefit their business.

When a fellow member encounters a potential client who needs what you offer, they can provide a personal endorsement based on their direct experience with your character and work quality. This creates a powerful multiplier effect—essentially giving you a dedicated sales force of trusted professionals who understand your business and can authentically advocate for you in their own networks.

The result is warm referrals backed by personal relationships rather than cold introductions, dramatically increasing your conversion potential and expanding your reach through established trust networks.
