Joining BNI

We Know Your Business

Thank you for your interest in BNI, Business Network Int'l, the world's largest referral organization.

BNI only allows one person per professional specialty in each chapter, so look here to find a chapter with an opening, or you are always welcome to attend the meeting of your choice. It is a good idea to contact the president of the chapter before attending, just to make sure they still have an opening for your professional specialty. Contact information can be found here.

You are also invited to attend our BNI Information Meetings. Information meetings provide information on BNI, starting chapters, and support during the start-up process if you want to start a chapter of your own.

Membership benefits include:

Increased exposure to many other people and businesses.
Substantially increased business through referrals.
Tools to network more effectively, including an orientation CD giving the Formula for Success in BNI, a badge, a vinyl card holder to carry members' business cards, referral slips, marketing materials for your chapter and more…..
Participation in up to 52 networking meetings per year.
Free listing on the BNI website directory.
Regular Newsletters with educational material on networking, public speaking and business.
Opportunities to participate in cross chapter networking events and social functions.
Free periodic workshops on networking, and much more…

The first step is to find a chapter and visit and see what we are all about. Words don't describe the energy you will find at your BNI meeting. BNI is something you need to experience to appreciate and understand.

In BNI, only one person is allowed to join per professional specialty. Once you are accepted as a member, your competition is locked out of your chapter! Once you submit your application, it will be reviewed by the membership committee; the committee will let you know the status of your application by the next meeting.

Did You Know...that many companies recommend BNI by name to their employees and franchise owners as one of the best ways to build the business? Some companies that recommend us are:

American Family Insurance
Nationwide Floor and Window Covering
Minuteman Press
EcoQuest International
(over 300,000 dealers worldwide)
MaryKay Cosmetics

Come for the breakfast, stay for the increased referrals!
