Welcome to THE Networking Group!

THE Networking Group (TNG) is a national “Vetted Before Invite” networking Community focused on helping successful business owners, sales producers, and entrepreneurs grow their business.
Our TNG Community is dynamic and high energy!
THE Networking Group Members have the opportunity to participate in “virtual” networking events throughout the month including evening events (called Champagne Events), morning Members Only Meetings (MOMs) and an occasional LIVE Champagne Event.
We kick off all Champagne Events with (what else?) a champagne toast followed by planned networking activities.
Here’s to generating more prospects, more referrals, and more business!
Cheers!

Michael Goldberg
Founder of THE Networking Group

Mission

THE Networking Group (TNG) is a national organization focused on helping attendees be better educated about the “art and science” of networking to grow their business.

After having joined THE Networking Group about 18 months ago, I have made not only great connections with various business professionals, I have established some really great friendships. Michael doesn’t just facilitate the meetings and gatherings, he teaches each member how to network: Always offering bits of advice to maximize the benefits of not just networking, but growing as a business professional. Having known Michael for well over a decade, his success is a tribute to his knowledge and skills of what being an entrepreneur looks like. He models what others can do and how that is repeatable for others. The formula for the meetings is consistent and allows time to actually get to know people — not just learn their name and profession. In terms of ROI — I can attribute 14.8% of my income in the first year in TNG to referrals and connections made. A good investment of money and time.

THE Networking Group goes beyond networking. It’s a dynamic community where professionals build deep connections, collaborate, and gain thoughtful and valuable referrals. The blend of virtual and in-person events fosters a wider network, meaningful interactions, and lasting friendships, making TNG an invaluable asset for my personal and business growth.
Christine Perez Raniets, Founder & Creative Director, Peran Design
THE Networking Group has been a “game changer” for me. When I joined in 2022, I was new to the world of national networking. TNG is an elite community of national networkers who care about helping others find success in their networking and business. It truly has become a professional and personal community of exceptional people who I am deeply grateful for. Thank you TNG!

Dr. Dorothy Martin-Neville, Leadership Coach

I’ve been part of many recognizable networking groups over my professional career. I’ve found value in all of them as I believe you get what you give. However, I can truly say there is nothing like THE Networking Group. The level of professionalism, personal authenticity, and the unique “TNG” energy of the members and structure is like none other. I know my peers in the group have my back and are a wonderful resource. Every meeting helps us raise our game as professionals. The challenges, support, and guidance is so valuable.

Machen MacDonald, Business Growth Coach, ProBrilliance Leadership Institute

The Networking Group has delivered beyond expectations. My first visit was a bit overwhelming, there was (and is) a TON of energy in the zoom room! That energy has led to some very meaningful business connections, and even more meaningful friendships. The collective knowledge and wisdom of the group that I can tap into is priceless. Besides measurable gains in my business, I’ve grown both personally and professionally as a direct result of being involved with TNG!
