“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 great way to get connected with like-minded individuals who are working hard to grow their businesses while connecting, learning and building amazing referral resources!”
“I have worked for Pine Tree Cellular in Waterville for 4 years now and since my start I have been attending with Elm City Referral Source BNI chapter. Because of this I have been able to see the help this opportunity provides to growing businesses right from the get go. The chapter members are amazing people, that genuinely care about helping each other grow. I would and have highly recommended BNI to business owners, whether they are just starting up or been in business for years.”
“BNI Maine is a wonderful organization. Using it for your business is a great way to grow through referrals. There is a tremendous amount of training available for all levels of experience from rookie to seasoned professional. The various chapters meet weekly and share information about their business. Through a structured set of one on ones, your chapter gets to know you and you get to know them as friends and family. Giving referrals is as important as receiving referrals and BNI Maine instills the Givers Gain philosophy. Sometimes you need to give some first, but with trust and hard work, you gain it back both in trust, friendship and referrals.”
“I started my business Bean Data fulltime in 2012. After a few years, my business started to plateau. One of my clients asked me how business was progressing. I stated that any forward momentum seems to have stalled. He suggested that I attend a BNI meeting. Initially, I resisted, but after him asking again I attended and found that it was the best thing I could have done! Every year since 2015 because of BNI my business has grown 10-20% per year by being active in BNI working with my chapter as well as the BNI Maine Region. Like anything, if you put in the time, effort and hard work you will reap the benefits. BNI is not a magic wand, but if you use the tools and interact with the global network of members that BNI is composed of you will prosper!”
“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! “
“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!”
“BNI has consistently helped me grow my business and is a necessity in my marketing strategy. The positive environment and outstanding resources allow me to have make new connections every week. Anyone looking to grow their business in a fun way should consider attending a chapter meeting.”
“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.”
