Values and Benefits of BNI

BNI is the world largest, most effective referral marketing program. BNI provides a positive, supportive, and structured environment for the development and exchange of quality business referrals.

Each chapter welcomes one person per area of specialty to actively promote their business, and fellow members act like an extended sales and marketing team, creating quality referrals through warm introductions to prospective clients.

Networking requires commitment. The most successful chapters of BNI are comprised of participants who are sincerely committed to helping one another grow through effective networking. They are a team. As a participant in BNI, you are responsible for complying with the policies and guidelines of the organization.

BNI’s core philosophy is Givers Gain®, based in the universal law of social reciprocity, essentially: what goes around, comes around. People that GIVE business referrals GET business referrals! Visit one of our chapters to see BNI in action!
