BNI (Business Network Int'l.) is a business and professional networking organization that offers members the opportunity to share ideas, contacts and most importantly, referrals.

Belonging to BNI is like having dozens of sales people working for you ...

...because all of them carry several copies of your business cards around with them. When they meet someone who could use your products or services, they hand out your card and recommend you.*  It's as simple as that!  It's simple because it's based on a proven concept by BNI Founder, Dr Ivan Misner, called "givers gain."  If I give you business you'll give me business and we'll both benefit as a result.

Last year, members of BNI passed over two million referrals . . .

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW:

Only one person from each professional specialty is permitted to join a chapter of BNI. All participants should represent their primary occupation, not a part-time business. Attendance is critical. If you cannot attend a meeting, you may send a substitute. This will not count as an absence. Participation in the chapter by members is a key to the success of a group.  Members can participate by bringing bona-fide referrals and/or visitors to their BNI chapter.
