“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.”
“Through #BNIMaine I’ve learned how to describe Words@Work in less than 60 seconds. I’ve learned the value of having a specific list of prospects and most important – I’ve discovered how much I love connecting people who can help each other.”
“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 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”
“So you’ve planted the seed of a new business, or are trying to re energize your established business. BNI is the organic fertilization process that makes small businesses grow! Join a chapter near you. There you’ll find many other entrepreneurs and professionals in your community who are dedicated to helping you grow.”
“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!”
“BNI is a referral network like no other. You can’t get state of the art training-in person and online, accountability, professionalism, and frankly-friendships, like BNI provides. It’s more than business growth; though that’s unmatched as well, it’s the ability to be instrumental in your group’s business growth through the givers gain! My employer, as well as manager, we’re not sold on BNI and all it was said to entail. I asked for an opportunity to see if perhaps I could change their mind. In 4 months I have closed $974,000 in business as a direct result from my BNI networking relationships. I’ve connected with folks I never would have had the opportunity or even thought to have connected with, I’ve learned a great deal from the training, and my professional growth has been a wonderful secondary side effect.”
“I don’t know about all the history of BNI but I can attest to what it’s done for my business. Over the past year we’ve gone from startup to a small scale company looking to hire employees. On the personal side I’ve made friends and business partners that I’ll have for decades, and it wouldn’t have been accomplished without BNI. If you’re looking to network with like minded people BNI is second to none.”
“As a small business, BNI Maine has been immensely beneficial to our growth. Networking is everything, from both growing out knowledge as a provider and also as ways to generate fantastic clients. We highly recommend this for small, growing businesses.”
