We asked a few of the members of the BNI Heart of Kent Chapter in Tunbridge Wells why they thought BNI worked for their business.
BNI is a 20 year old business and professional organisation that allows only one person from each trade or profession to join a chapter. With over 3,700 active chapters worldwide, and over 72,000 members, it is the most successful business referral organisation in the world.
'It's not net-sit or net-eat it's net-work'
Ivan Misner PhD Founder and CEO of BNI
The essence of BNI is that although the meeting takes place at breakfast the sole reason for coming is to net-work! Efficiency and timings are maintained because every BNI meeting follows a structured 20 point agenda.
If you attend a BNI meeting in the UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia, the United States or anywhere else, you will find all meetings follow exactly the same format, using exactly the same agenda.
They are focused on generating business for the participants and there are no secondary agendas.
Being active in BNI is like having up to 50 sales people working for you, because your fellow members will be carrying your cards and referring your business to people they meet, without you having to pay them any salaries or commission. Successful businesses depend on 'word-of-mouth' marketing as the ebst form of promotion there is.
BNI provides a structured, supportive, business environment in which local business people can get together to network, learn valuable new marketing skills and develop the strong personal relationships that lead to trust and the consequent generation of significant business for each other.
It's as simple as that! Last year members of BNI passed 3,300,000 referrals, which generated more than £800 million of business.
