Default Re: Thoughts on BNI

Hi Barb

I can't speak for other Chambers but just to clarify, the Hills Business Chamber have RPT groups (Referral Plus Teams) which work like BNI i.e. one business per category and it is included in the membership with no ongoing fees - this is an affordable opton for some businesses who can't afford other networking options.

All the best!

BNI is a professional networking organisation with a format that has been tried and tested in thousands of groups all around the world. To commit to meeting every week - is a reason the groups are generally successful.

Chambers of Commerce are not the same as a BNI one business per category referral network.
