If client relationships and word-of-mouth marketing are important to the growth of your business, Business Network International (BNI) is an organization you will want to explore!

BNI is a business and professional networking group whose primary purpose is to foster the exchange of qualified referrals. The largest organization of its kind, BNI currently has more than 3,000 chapters throughout the world, with more than 70 in Minnesota. BNI is unique in that it allows only one person per profession to join a chapter. That means once you become a member, none of your competitors can participate in the same group. I belong to The Lakes Chapter and have found it worthwhile.

Please join my fellow BNI members, our guests and me on November 20. You’ll see how a BNI meeting works and hear how the organization can benefit you, both professionally and personally. You’ll also have a chance to network and ask questions. There is no fee to attend.

Seating may be limited, so please call me soon at 612-386-72490 to reserve your spot. When you come, bring plenty of business cards, as you will meet many local professionals who can pass referrals on to you. Also please bring along business associates who may be interested. I look forward to seeing you there!
