Financial Advisor

“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!”

“It’s been 9 months since I had the honor and privilege of taking upon the position of store manager for TD Bank. I am so fortunate that our store has seen tremendous growth over this time frame, and although many factors contributed to that growth joining one of the local Bangor BNI chapters has been critical. BNI stands for business networking International. If you can Imagine the power of having 52 like minded business professionals committed to referring business to one another then you will begin to understand the power of this amazing networking group. This Friday we are having our visitor day at the Ramada Inn in Brewer which gives businesses the opportunity to come see why so many business owners who have joined have renewed year after year. In only 9 months BNI member referrals have brought in an additional $47,500 in business to my store. Our chapter is always on the search for new members that are interested in growing their business by working smarter not harder.”

“BNI has been a godsend for me as I’m starting a new business, in a new town! As a starter, I have all of these wonderful BNI members who can help me get set up with services from commercial brokerage to professional insurance. Now that I’m up and running, the network BNI offers is an amazing business builder, and finally, once I start getting more client relationships built, I can refer back to my BNI colleagues as I can make quality recommendations to my trusted clients. It’s a win-win-win! Visit us for a medical skincare treatment or wrinkle relaxer injectable!”

“BNI is not only responsible for introducing me to half of my currently clients, the members of BNI have helped me through personal and professional challenges. Knowing so many professionals from all different industries has been an asset to me, my clients and my business.”

“BNI has been an incredible resource for our business, Maine Ride Detailing. I not only look forward to our meetings every week, I also love getting to know all of our awesome referral partners during the times in between. We’ve built many relationships within our local business community since joining a little over two year ago, with connections throughout Maine and beyond! I can honestly say that our company would not be where it is today without BNI. Givers gain is not just a motto, it really is a way of conducting business that has produced results for us, our company, and many many other local business!”

“BNI Maine is a fun, energetic, successful group of individuals who truly care about each other and achieving their goals. There are great referrals being passed almost on a daily basis with closed business announced at each meeting. If you are looking to grow your business, BNI is definitely the way to go. It has changed the way that I do business even having been in my field for 10 years. Go visit”

“I am so grateful to have a group of trusted business professionals that I can call on when I need anything for myself, my family or my clients. Becoming apart of this organization just a few months ago has made such an impact on my business and the relationships alone are invaluable. From the members in my group to the connections that you can make in other chapters takes it the extra mile. If you are looking at this trying to decide if it is a good fit or just want to learn more feel free to connect with me! “
