“There is not a another networking group like BNI Maine that is committed to making every member successful. The leadership and the trainings have been instrumental in boosting my sales at Wight’s Sporting Goods! I would definitely recommend them to any business looking to grow!”
“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!!”
“I’m just about to start my 3rd year with BNI this spring with my chapter Successful Business Partners. To say BNI has helped my business would be an understatement, BNI has SAVED my business. I’m a photographer and when I moved to Oxford Hills I quickly learned that establishing a client base in a small community is hard work with so many other talented people to compete with. If it weren’t for the trust and friendships I have built with my BNI family, and the business they bring me I don’t want to even think about where I might be! I recently got an email from a BNI member in Latvia!!! Interested in selling my images on their canvases! BNI has taught me more then I could ever ask and given me connections and job opportunities I never thought I would have”
“One of the hardest things about being self employed is the networking, growing my business, and feeling a part of something bigger. BNI Maine checks all those boxes. The #giversgain mindset is focused on helping others and in return, you get what you give. BNI provides all the knowledge and tools you need to become successful and to help businesses and like-minded professionals grow, too. I have learned to be a better speaker, ask for what I want more clearly. It has challenged me to dive into my work, my processes, and my goals more honestly. My fellow Queen City BNI – Brewer members have expanded my thoughts as far as what is possible and are truly becoming more than just other business owners, they are becoming friends. I look forward to the networking each week, learning what my fellow members need and how I can help them fulfill their needs.”
“BNI has allowed me to build a network of trusted and quality referral sources. This adds a tremendous amount of value to existing and prospective clients of mine, as needs come up, I have a group to turn to that I can trust will meet their needs.”
“BNI is a professional organization which provides so much value to it’s members. The trainings, support, philosophy and energy is top notch. 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!”
“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.”
“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!”
