Why Join?

BNI is a business and professional networking organization which allows one representative from each profession to join. The sole purpose of the group is to give its members more business. It’s based on the concept that what goes around comes around. If you give business to me, I’ll give business to you

There is a network beyond members of each chapter. Each member knows dozens of people who in turn know dozens of other people. Through this “extended network” come most of the business referrals that are given each week. The average chapter of BNI gives over 60 referrals per month to its members!


One-to-Ones

Also known as Dance Cards, One-to-Ones are meetings between chapter members outside of the regular weekly networking meetings. One-to-Ones are an opportunity to build relationships with other members and better understand the services their businesses offer. This accelerates the pace of building trust that leads to the generation of referrals.
