“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.”

“BNI Maine has shown me an ultra-effective, fun, and connected way to grow my business, while building an aligned community of other motivated, ambitious professionals and business owners.

Wish I had done this years ago!”

“I started my videography business in 2020 and I had all the feelings you’d expect when going off on your own for the first time. But someone from BNI reached out to me and invited me in and that weight of anxiety has been completely lifted. All the BNI members that I have met have been there to help, encourage, and teach me and it has been an amazing experience. I’ve been lucky enough to go around to various BNI members and talk about their experiences in BNI and I’ve heard enough to know that my experience is not a unique one. Without fail, each member has spoken about their chapter as a family and for me that’s the power of BNI. It creates a safe place where we can support, encourage and hold each other accountable, just like a family would and I am so lucky to be a part of that.”

“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 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!”

“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.”
