BNI is a business and professional networking organization that allows only one person per profession or specialty to join each chapter. Last year alone, members of BNI passed 5.6 million referrals, which generated over $2.3 billion dollars worth of business for its members.
The BNI philosophy is the brainchild of BNI Founder, Dr. Ivan Misner. Based on his idea of Givers Gain: By giving business to others, you will get business in return, it is predicated on the age-old idea of “What goes around, comes around.”
There are thousands of chapters worldwide, from Australia to Zimbabwe, and it is easy to connect with business people when you are traveling or want to make contacts in other cities or globally.
BNI provides a structured and supportive system of giving and receiving business. Belonging to BNI is like having dozens of sales people working for you, because all of them carry your business card with them. When they meet someone who could use your products or services, they can give them your card and a personal recommendation.
Joining a chapter is like belonging to a family. You develop relationships with other professionals, share ideas and learn new ways to promote your business. Come to a meeting and see why BNI is the most successful organization of its kind.
