| What is BNI?
A business marketing program that allows one person from each profession
to a chapter. The sole purpose of the chapter is to increase business
through a structured system of referrals.
Can Anyone apply for membership to a Chapter?
We only take one person from each profession. Visit our chapter
today and lock out your competition. If we already have a business
to fill your profession we can refer you to another chapter.
How many members are in a chapter?
A typical chapter usually has between 20 and 25 members.
Some BNI chapters have as many as 45 members! We currently have
25 businesses represented.
What occupations benefit the most from networking?
It is not the occupation, it is the individual. All professions
can prosper from BNI if you take the time to learn how to target
your market and teach your fellow members what you are looking for
in referrals.
When does the chapter meet?
We meet on Tuesday at 11:30 am. We maintain weekly contact with
each other and exchange regular referrals.
Where does the chapter meet?

How do I benefit from BNI?
 ·
By substantially increasing and expanding your business through
referrals.
·
By exposing your service and knowledge to business throughout
the community.
·
By gaining knowledge from information from member's professions.
·
Increasing awareness from members who will recommend your services.
·
By using a professionally designed forum to promote yourself and
your business.
How do you know members are reputable?
The application asks for references and we have a membership committee
that checks them. It's word of mouth, so before they even come to
a meeting they have to have spoken to someone or been invited by
someone in the group. Everyone has to have a sponsor. |
