Funny Business does exactly what it says on the tin. Depending on the tin. It isn't beans, for example. Nor it is any good for sealing woodwork. What the tin will say is: ✅ 3 comedians - filling the evening with smiles and laughter ✅ Networking time - informally get to know other local businesses ✅ Fundraising - all profits and raffle ticket sales go to charity ✅ Canapes and drinks ✅ Special Guest appearances from stars such as Kylie Minogue and Peter Andre* ✅ Free helicopter rides home for all attendees** This event is run by the trusty old team of Ollie Jackman, Josh Butler, me, Raj Panchal and John Tomkins, and we're being hosted at the Winslade Manor Cellar Café and Bar, so yeah we've gone a bit upmarket here. Grab a ticket, come along, laugh, network, donate, eat, drink, use the loo (optional) and generally just have a bit of a wonderful time... this time we are limited to only 60 spaces, so I wouldn't hang about... 🎟️ https://lnkd.in/eKAJ-rh4 *This bit isn't true **This bit isn't true either, sorry #Comedy #Networking #Exeter #Business #Events #Fundraising #Charity

Fundraiser’s Dinner Etiquette Tip #9: Finishing the Meal with Grace Ending a meal at a formal dinner has its own set of polite guidelines. Here are a few ways to close out the evening with style: 🍽️ Leave plates as they are – When you’re finished, keep your plates in place rather than pushing them aside or stacking them. 🍴 Signal you’re done – Place your fork and knife diagonally across your plate, pointing at 10:00 and 4:00. This subtle signal tells the wait staff you’re finished. 🥡 Skip the to-go box – Avoid asking for leftovers. At a formal dinner, it’s best to show that you came for the company, not just the food. 💵 The initiator takes care of the check – Typically, the person who arranged the meal pays and tips accordingly: 15% for moderate service, 20% for excellent. 📝 Thank your host – A genuine thank-you to your host goes a long way. It shows appreciation for the invitation and for the thoughtful experience they’ve provided. Following these steps helps you leave a polished, professional impression. What tips would you add for ending a formal meal, such as with a major donor?

It's that time of year when not-for-profits ask for your donations. However, GivingTuesday is not a requirement to give. Donations are an expression of support for the cause, the people affected, and the not-for-profits providing essential services. Organizations should focus on sharing compelling stories worthy of genuine loyal support. Far too often GivingTuesday is the reason for the appeal—that’s not very moving. #leadership #CEOs #EDs #fundsdevelopment #marketing #branding #stories
