Help & FAQs
Basic concepts
- Business Junction is a membership network. After a maximum of 2 taster events, you need to join Business Junction to book and attend further events. Membership is an annual commitment and can be paid in one go or over 12 monthly instalments.
- Membership is for the business, not just an individual. Once you have set up your company membership, you can add as many subscribers from your company under your membership as you need. Anyone can then log on and book their event places. Company membership means your colleagues and employees can attend events and engage with the community.
- Members enjoy discounted member rates, and can invite non-member guests to any event, free of charge if it is their first event, subject to availability. Non-members will need to join after 2 visits.
- Joining: To become a member, you first need to create a user account and then add your company. The more details you provide about your company, the more you’ll benefit from the network.
- Adding subscribers: Other members can either sign up as a user and request to join your company, or your company admin can add them directly, or Business Junction can add them for you.
Company Profiles
As a member company, you get a dedicated profile page to showcase your business to the Business Junction community and beyond. This is your shop window, so make the most of it by filling in as many details as possible.
- Company membership: Paying for a company membership means your employees can attend events and engage with the community.
- Profile details: Beyond the usual company information like location, website, and contact details, we offer special sections in your profile:
- Member offers: An optional area where you can post exclusive deals for Business Junction members. These offers are only visible to logged-in members, so make them special.
- Images: Alongside your logo, you can upload a featured image that represents your company. There’s also a background image section, similar to Facebook or LinkedIn, where you can upload a banner that reflects your brand. The dimensions are the same as LinkedIn’s header image (1584 by 396 pixels).
- Awards: If your company has won any awards, you can showcase them here.
- People: You can add team members to your company profile. As an admin, you can accept users who request to join your company. These users will be displayed on your profile page, emphasising the importance of the people behind the business.

Frequently asked questions
Where are the member alerts?
Member alerts is a function where members can email all other members of Business Junction. This does still exist but is controlled by the site admin. Got something you need to say? Please get in touch with the admin team.
Is there a limit on members who can join a company?
No! As many people as you like. Or just one.
I am a "one man band", do I still need to add a company?
Yes you do. The company listing is the way we list members so please add in your business details too.
How can I cancel or amend my event tickets?
If you are unable to make an event, please notify us admin@businessjunction.co.uk to transfer your booking to the next event of your choice. 24 hours notice is required for a transfer or cancellation.
Got another question? Get in touch with the admin team.
What happens when a user leaves a company?
The admin of a member company can access the company information from their dashboard and look for the members section. You can remove users and search for other users to add.
Do you offer referrals
Yes. When new users sign up to events or as companies we ask if that user has been referred by someone. We here at Business Junction like people to recommend other people, so we will add coupons for free event tickets to referrers. This is at our discretion.
