BNI is a great tool for building businesses by increasing the credibility and posture of each of its members to their customer base!

When I became a member of the Moorestown Chapter of BNI in February of 2005,I had been in business 15 years and was looking for a way to increase my client base while following the principles of traditional Oriental practice. Work of Mouth marketing is the only way traditional practitioners are supposed to advertise, so BNI seemed to be a good fit for my business goals.

In just two years, my practice has grown exponentially. With the referrals, support, guidance, training, and education received through BNI, I have been able to expand my one room practice into a complete holistic healthcare center– Joint~Effort Wellness Center in Moorestown.

What really excites me is that through my contacts in BNI, I have been able to become a great resource for my clients. Not just for the health and wellness services they expect when come to see me, but also because I can provide my clients with referrals to every imaginable service and product available throughout the Delaware Valley Region.

Thanks to BNI and the avenues that have been opened to me, my business is taking off in ways that I never would have imagined. Other consultants ask me how I grow my business and I simply say, BNI.

My business is growing by leaps and bounds as a direct result of my participation in BNI. And on a more personal level, BNI has provided deep and lasting friendships for me. I always tell potential members that they shouldn’t plan on becoming a member of BNI for just one year. BNI is something that members stay in for many years. Lifelong friendships develop and amazing business opportunities result in some of the most unlikely conversations.

BNI is an amazing ride and I am blessed to be a part of such an amazing organization.

I took a look at a lot of groups before I found BNI. None of those compare. 100% of my business comes from word of mouth and BNI is responsible for 90% of that. Between the networking education and the ability to network with hundreds, if not thousands, of business people with the same mindset, BNI has provided the framework to grow our business tremendously over the past 3 years. The only regret I have is not finding out about BNI sooner.

I started my BNI Membership 1 month after starting launching my practice as a Business Coach and Marketing Consultant. Within 2 1/2 years, I had completely filled my schedule, and the only spot I had open was 11:30 on Thursday, my BNI time. I average 1 new paying client for every month since being an active member of BNI!

As a Marketing Consultant, I can say that my BNI Membership out-performs phonebook advertising, cold-calling, mailings, and every other form of marketing I tried.

BNI not only works for the big business types but works for the smaller businesses as well. I believe the smaller businesses get a great sense of accomplishment when a referral turns into a sale or a great client. BNI has given me the connections and the confidence to be able to manage my business on a different level. Only by visiting a chapter and enjoying the process can you understand the full value of the organization. It works! It's a great feeling to be a part of something so established and so ethical. Thank you BNI

When I started my business I had a small advertising budget. I friend told me about BNI. I decided to take a portion of my advertising budget (less than 5%) and dedicate it to networking. I joined BNI in September 2004, and saw immediate results. In 2005, BNI accounted for 65% of my total sales, while using only 4.7% of my total advertising budget.

We have grown our business substantially through BNI. Chapter members have given referrals to us early in the sales process, and very often we find ourselves with little or not competition on our proposals.. BNI works!

My BNI chapter referrals have become the primary source of all of the new business I bring in to my company each year. No more cold calls or expensive advertising. The relationships I have formed with other members are highly valued both personally and professionally.

I received a referral from a BNI member that has turned into the largest contract in the long history of my company. This contract provides repeat business each year. It is unlikely that we would have even known of the existence of this opportunity if we did not get this referral.
