“I started my business Bean Data fulltime in 2012. After a few years, my business started to plateau. One of my clients asked me how business was progressing. I stated that any forward momentum seems to have stalled. He suggested that I attend a BNI meeting. Initially, I resisted, but after him asking again I attended and found that it was the best thing I could have done! Every year since 2015 because of BNI my business has grown 10-20% per year by being active in BNI working with my chapter as well as the BNI Maine Region. Like anything, if you put in the time, effort and hard work you will reap the benefits. BNI is not a magic wand, but if you use the tools and interact with the global network of members that BNI is composed of you will prosper!”
“BNI Maine has shown me an ultra-effective, fun, and connected way to grow my business, while building an aligned community of other motivated, ambitious professionals and business owners.
Wish I had done this years ago!”
“BNI Maine has had a dramatic effect on my business as an affiliate of LifeVantage. Not only have I grown my business skills through BNI Portland Business Builders and all the world class trainings they offer, my network is now global, and networking has been made simple and accessible during this Pandemic. One of the unexpected pluses that I hadn’t expected was making a new circle of close friends. During the time of the Pandemic my business has doubled and my confidence as a business owner has grown dramatically. BNI Maine necessitates an investment of time and energy in others “Givers Gain” and I wouldn’t have it any other way❤️”
“BNI has helped me develop strong working relationships with other business owners across the state. This has helped me in closing sales faster in my consulting business, Briggs Solutions for Business, because I’m able to provide valuable references and get great referrals. I’ve also learned a lot from other members about how to run a successful business. It’s an early Friday morning but it’s always worth it!”
“This is my first experience with BNI and I can say it’s truly an amazing experience. I love the trainings they offer and the wide variety of people you get to meet. the resources that BNI has are unbelievable. I highly recommend BNI to any business that wants to grow.”

If you are looking to grow your business, be a part of a community as big as the world, this is the place to be! BNI has been a tremendously positive and powerful experience for me in many ways! Being one of the founding members of the Queen City Chapter, I have grown professionally, while helping my Chapter grow the membership. The positive and professional culture of BNI is second to none!”
“Since joining BNI I have made so many amazing connections and lifelong friends. I would recommend BNI to anyone who wants to grow their business and meet some amazing people!”
“BNI Maine is a tremendous organization. Kelly and Niels are dedicated to the growth of all their networking groups. As part of their largest group, Bangor Breakfast, they still come to help us grow and become better networkers. The Bangor Breakfast BNI is a crucial part of my referral network and has been for the last 8 years. If I can make one recommendation to grow your business, find a BNI group.”
