“Hey guys! Just a shout out to my entrepreneurial FB friends. Many of you have probably seen me tagged in BNI stuff. This is a little about it and a testimonial. I’ve been with BNI (Business Network International) for approximately 26+ years. I’ve met many of my closest friends there, it’s helped to grow two successful businesses throw referrals Chem Quest which I sold, and now our Arbonne business and to make me a better networker, friend, and leader. BNI has been an instrumental part of my life. If you are looking to grow your business and would like to know more, let me know and I’ll send you in the right direction. Happy Wednesday!!”

Diane Lent

Maine Home Portrait Artist

Artist

“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!!”

“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 has helped me grow, both personally and professionally! I feel comfortable inducing myself and public speaking (well more comfortable!!) Having a network of business professionals to lean on is the best…The referrals that come are just gravy!! BNI is perfect for companies like Sparkling Clean to get the word out about quality and local services!”

“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.”

Wayne Demers

“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.”

“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.”

Mike Virgie

“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!”
