    About BtoB Connect

    Drive Your Core Business While Building Residual Income.
    The exploding demand for the services of a B2B-only referral group versus mixed B2B and B2C groups is what prompted the creation and nationwide expansion of BtoB Connect, via exclusive franchising opportunities. The best part of a BtoB Connect franchise is your ability to continue building your current business with qualified business referrals while creating residual income. If you're networking and doing business by referral already, you might as well get paid to do it! Many franchise territories have already been sold. If you're interested in learning more about this exciting opportunity and have been the owner of a business-to-business company for at least three years, contact us to claim your territory.
    BtoB Connect was created out of frustration with other networking groups. The founders were tired of wasting  time attending networking meetings that were better suited for B2C businesses such as residential real estate or landscaping, vitamin sales or other personal care products. BtoB Connect's membership is B2B-only and filled with like-minded professionals who want to help your business grow and have a network of contacts synergistic to yours.
