“In 2010 I was working part time at a camera store and my wedding and portrait business was struggling at just below a poverty income. Every mom and uncle with a nice camera was shooting weddings for way less than I was charging. I joined Profit Partners, a BNI Maine Chapter and at the suggestion of a long time member, I shifted genres and my business began to take off with a LOT of referrals. If all continues as it has the last several years, by the end of 2020, referrals from BNI Maine will have put more than $1,000,000 into my business accounts. 100% of that has come from the referrals and training I’ve received from this excellent organization. BNI Maine absolutely changed my life and the lives of my family. Relationship based referral marketing is the key to success for me. I’ll be a member for life.”
“There is not a another networking group like BNI Maine that is committed to making every member successful. The leadership and the trainings have been instrumental in boosting my sales at Wight’s Sporting Goods! I would definitely recommend them to any business looking to grow!”
“BNI has helped me grow my art business and become a better speaker, networker and business owner! Can’t say enough good things about it! So glad I found this wonderful organization!
Thank you BNI!”
“Our business joined BNI in February 2021. We are receiving an average of one new referral every week! Before BNI we were averaging one new referral to our business about every 2 months! This has been a huge boost to our business. I am thankful for the business relations I am building and the growing success of our company”
“BNI has been a HUGE part of my business.. I started in BNI in 2013 as a brand new loan officer, looking to grow my business.. BNI helped me not only grow my business and create amazing relationships with professionals that I feel confident referring to, but it also helped me grow as a speaker and presenter and feel confident talking about what I do in front of anyone! If you are looking to grow your business, there truly is no better place to put your focus and time!”
“As a financial advisor, my entire business is referral-based. When I was introduced to BNI over 17 years ago it seemed a natural fit. Little did I know it would take 13 months to get my first referral and that was to a client in CT. We drove 1.5 hrs to meet halfway and closed the business resulting in a $5000 commission. Since that time I have helped my members put over a million dollars in their pockets and they have done the same for me! The Givers Gain philosophy really works!”
“I was first invited to attend a BNI meeting early this year and was just so impressed with the group. They were so welcoming, professional, and ready to connect. It was great to make connections with them, so much so that I kept going back! I have been a member for several months now, and BNI has helped my business, Pickle’s Potions, grow. The networking that this group provides is priceless.
I am proud to be a member.”
“Being a new startup business and looking for a way to increase referrals BNI Maine has been a great move. The members are great to bounce ideas off of and act as mentors to make everyone successful.”
