“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 Maine is the reason my business is 10 years old. When I started The Back Office Expert, it was on the advice of friends and family. I thought, sure, I’ll give it a try; if it doesn’t work, I’ll go find a job. Luckily, I found BNI 4 months after I started my bookkeeping practice and I’ve never looked back. I have part-time employees, over 70 clients, and the phone never stops ringing.”

“I definitely recommend BNI! BNI Maine has helped me grow as an entrepreneur immensely! I have become more confident in what I’m looking for as far as clients and how I can share that information with others so they can keep an ear out for me! I have started to grow my client base and hope to keep going that way! If anyone wants to talk travel, let me know! amanda.kearns@milnetravel.com After being in BNI for almost 5 years, I can say that my list of connections and referral partners is still growing!”

“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.”

“BNI Maine has helped not only my business grow to lengths I never though would be possible so quickly, but it has also helped my confidence personally. Getting to share my work each and every week with a group of like minded and driven people is very motivating. I look forward to each and every meeting to share what Northstar Mortgage is doing around the community. If you’re curious about BNI, visit a meeting ASAP!”

“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.”
