Referrals are the best way to grow your business. BNI is the world leader in business networking and generating quality referrals.
Now even easier online.
In today’s business environment having a trusted referral network is essential.
Our proven business referral system, coupled with bni online, is designed to help businesses work together to pass referral business, explore new opportunities and sharpen your business skills.
Visiting a meeting is free and gives you the chance to meet several members of your local business community. These introductions could lead to new partners, customers or suppliers which can improve the value of your business.
Join us on bni online. Get started by finding one of our local Chapters.
To generate the biggest possible impact for you and your business, in the shortest time, BNI chapters operate by a 90-minute agenda. Each week, BNI members in more than 9,500 chapters around the world use this agenda to grow their businesses.
You are invited because someone saw that your business could benefit from a BNI membership and thought you could have a positive impact on the chapter.
BNI chapters track referrals, assign a value and keep a scoreboard to help make trading business fun. You’ll hear statistics like referrals given, referral goals, and income generated.
In BNI, generating money for other members becomes a game. And the best part, more players mean more referrals and a higher score. More referrals because new members give long-time members a new person to give referrals to and to generate referrals from.
Visitors like you attend chapter meetings all the time. Members are excited to meet you and make every effort to make the experience fun and productive for you. Think of it as an invitation to a fun party, with an agenda.
The only portion of the agenda you need to concern yourself with now is introducing yourself. You’ll have a few seconds to give your name, your business, the problems you solve and your target customer. It’s that easy. One last detail is to remember to give your name at the end of your introduction as well to help members remember you when they have someone to refer.
When members agree you are a good fit for the chapter, you will be invited to apply for BNI membership. BNI Membership helps you generate more sales with consistent growth, less effort and lower cost than other marketing methods.
Submitted By: Barb Lynch, BNI® Success Partners, Northeast Florida Our first One-to-One was over lunch. It was there, over 10 years ago, where we both committed to finding each other “Specific Referrals.”
I travel often, speaking to business professionals about networking. When traveling, especially internationally, I try very hard not to forget important items I need for meetings or speaking to groups of people . . . but I admit it’s hard to remember everything.
