Can I be the only person in my industry in the group?2019-07-20T12:52:20+12:00

ELITE : SIX Gold membership fee was introduced in 2019. This is for people who want to be the only person in the industry in their group, we don’t encourage it, but it is available. These members need to be regular and can only miss six meetings per year to maintain ELITE : SIX Gold.

We introduced ELITE : SIX Gold for two reasons;

  1. I really believe that good business networking is not about one industry in each group. It’s about supporting people in business and sharing their knowledge, skills and experience with likeminded business people.

  2. The other reason, a lot of the key industries needed to make a successful business networking group flourish, often can’t make meetings regularly. However it’s of real value having a Lawyer, Accountant, Real Estate Agent, Insurance and Mortgage Adviser on hand at each meeting we run, the group growth is limited without them. They all have their own strength, so yes they may overlap a little, but they all excel with their own specialty.

ELITE : SIX Gold

A Monthly Fee of $88.50 (101.78) – Entitles you to be the only person in your industry in one group.

How do I cancel my membership?2019-07-22T19:06:21+12:00

To terminate your ELITE : SIX Membership please complete the form at www.elite6.co.nz/termination/

Can I put my membership on hold?2019-07-22T23:04:37+12:00

No, ELITE : SIX doesn’t put memberships on hold. It is not a feasible business model to operate a stop start service in this industry. A major part of the membership is your online presence. If you can’t make the meetings other members can still contact you and this is all part of the yearly membership we offer. To keep memberships affordable we offer monthly payment options but we do not offer stop start memberships.
