90% Of CEOs Request A Private Business Network That's Just For Them

A new survey of 500 CEOs suggests that 90% desire more exclusivity, more credibility, and more real-time interaction within an online business network.

London, (PRWEB) February 14, 2009 -- Online business networking sites have proven themselves to be more than a passing trend. Business leaders and executives are increasingly using the Internet to exchange information and find new opportunities through interaction with their peers. But a new survey has demonstrated a requirement for a more exclusive, private and interactive experience than that offered by the major business networks.

The survey, which was sponsored by the new CEO Lounge (http://www.ceolounge.com), questioned 500 CEOs, Senior Executives and Business Owners (all of whom use at least one of the major business networks) and focused on the online networking needs of these individuals.

According to the survey: -

•    85% use business-networking sites to find new business opportunities.

•    90% rate exclusivity as a "very important" attribute of a business network.

•    93% want real-time interaction within a business network.

CEO Lounge is a new business network (http://www.ceolounge.com/networking-pages/business-network.php) that's exclusively for CEOs, Senior Executives and Specialist Professionals. The aim is to allow top-level decision makers to meet, share information and gain valuable insights from each other.

Arya Marafie, the founder of the CEO Lounge said: -

"Our USP is our bedrock principle of absolute exclusivity. CEOs and senior executives want to know that the people in their network are on their level. Our members value the fact that everyone on our site is a top-level decision maker".

Arya continued: "The CEO Lounge is a world-class website that makes use of all the latest Web 2.0 technology. It offers a wide range of simple yet clever features and allows members to communicate using live email, text chat and even full-screen video conferencing.

"We developed the CEO Lounge based on extensive research into the needs and preferences of top level business people. Our target demographic are time-poor professionals who want to maximize the value they garner from online networking. We have made the site user-friendly, interactive and highly efficient. It allows members to locate valuable contacts quickly and then to communicate with them instantly.

Today's CEOs are so different from the stereotypical grey-suited CEO of their father's generation. The new generation of blue jean wearing, technically savvy, 30 and 40 something CEOs are looking to maximize technology within their fast growing companies and their professional lives. The CEO Lounge meets this need. It is a truly revolutionary offering and we hope that it will become the preferred business network (http://www.ceolounge.com/networking-pages/business-network.php) for today's leaders."
