“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.”
“I have been a member of BNI for 16 years. This organization has been a major contributor to help me build Bernatche Auto Body to what it is today! I cannot wait to see where we will grow together in the next 16 years.”
“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.”
“Being a new startup business and looking for a way to increase referrals BNI Maine has been a great move. The members are great to bounce ideas off of and act as mentors to make everyone successful.”
“Since joining BNI I have made so many amazing connections and lifelong friends. I would recommend BNI to anyone who wants to grow their business and meet some amazing people!”
“BNI Maine goes the extra mile to help small businesses continually grow to reach their goals! Thanks for everything you do to help make all of our businesses better! Together we can accomplish anything!”
“BNI has been a HUGE part of my business.. I started in BNI in 2013 as a brand new loan officer, looking to grow my business.. BNI helped me not only grow my business and create amazing relationships with professionals that I feel confident referring to, but it also helped me grow as a speaker and presenter and feel confident talking about what I do in front of anyone! If you are looking to grow your business, there truly is no better place to put your focus and time!”
“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!”
“Thanks to the new leadership team at BNI Maine for creating such good energy, giving us guidance, and helping all members grow their business. I have been a proud member of the Portland Business Builders BNI Chapter and it has been great connecting with like-minded business owners who all work together to reach goals.”
“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”
