“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”
“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! “
“How much would you pay to have a sales and referral staff of more than 20 people? BNI Maine is specifically geared towards growing my business and finding the right clientele that I wish to work with. Each week I work with my chapter to educate them on who I’m looking to help and ways that I can help them. Then there is 20+ people looking for those referrals each and every day, to help me grow my business.
The team at BNI Maine cares about helping you grow your business and improving your business. I’ve learned so many things from the basics of networking to industry-specific areas in which my business can help their clients and in turn grow my business. There is nothing like BNI or this team, it’s the best way to grow your business, hands down! My only regret is I wish I would have joined earlier.”
“I love being a realtor and helping all my clients through their transactions. But real estate is very competitive and everyone seems to know a few realtors. So how do I stand out and try to grow my business?! By joining this amazing group and BNI experience! BNI has helped me meet new people and businesses across Maine. With just 1 referral/closed business, my membership is paid for, yet I still show up each week to keep growing and to help other local businesses grow. This platform has been amazing for me to grow as an individual and a real estate agent. I am breaking out of my shell and connecting with numerous people statewide. This has been a great experience and I recommend any business looking to grow to attend a meeting and see what it is all about!”
“To share my story of why I am a BNI member. I have worked selling many different business services most of my life. I was good at it but I always wanted to be a full time artist. I had joined BNI when I was working for one of them. I was frustrated again with what I was selling so I brought into my BNI meeting one of my paintings and said and I also do this… Many of the members said “I want one”, “I know someone who would want one”. And my art business started. I have gotten trainings, support and education on how to build my business from BNI and BNI members. I’ve learned how to promote my art and make it a full time gig. Without BNI I would never have achieved my big hairy goal and become a full time artist. Mainehomeportraitartist.com. I am so thankful!!”
“BNI has not only introduced me to a dedicated group of professionals but through it, I have sharpened my communication skills and grown my business. I highly recommend this organization!”
“Love how BNI Maine has helped SocialManas Digital Marketing Agency grow. We love the connections and referrals we’ve received AND given. BNI has definitely helped our bottom line. In fact, we earned back our annual dues in the first month. So far in 2021 BNI has driven almost 10% of our revenue. Well worth the investment.”
“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.”
“We were looking to grow our business with more referrals and joining BNI Network has not disappointed! It is like we gained a 56 member sales team that isn’t on payroll. It has allowed us to grow faster even through a pandemic.”
“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!”
