BNI Durham, Teesside & Cumbria - BNI the business referral organisation

BNI - Background information

Last year in the UK over £170m worth of business was passed between its 15,000 members. This website represents companies in the BNI Durham, Teesside & Cumbria, two of the most successful regions for BNI. Each meeting runs once per week from 7am until 8.30am - contact us for a full list of meetings in these regions. On average we know a seat is worth in excess of £20,000 per year per member. BNI works because it’s like having a sales force of up to 40 people working for you, promoting your business to their contacts on a weekly basis.

Word of mouth advertising is the best form of promotion there is. Why? Because someone else is establishing your credibility and generating trust for you with potential clients! The whole BNI philosophy is based on ‘Givers Gain’ - quite simply this means that if I give you business, you’ll want to give me business in return.

The key benefits of BNI are;

• Increased exposure to many new businesses and people
• Substantially increases business referrals
• Access to some of the best network training available
• Meet up to 40 businesses for up to 52 weeks per year
• Generate business while your competition is still sleeping!
