A chapter has between 25-40 members and a member has exclusivity within a chapter. BNI brings together business people, each representing a different profession, in a chapter. When the economy is thriving, referrals help companies stand out in a competitive marketplace and if the economic climate is weak, BNI members have the benefit of a large team of fellow members who drive business their way, helping them win an oversized share of available business.Įxecutive Directors work to open and add members to BNI chapters. BNI has grown steadily for three decades - even during the Great Recession - thanks to the ability to deliver value to members regardless of the economic climate. It is an iconic, well-entrenched brand that has a proven track record of sustainability. “Business people are always looking to increase sales and BNI helps them achieve that in a unique, fun way,” says Graham Weihmiller, CEO of BNI, “Everyone speaks the language of referrals and BNI is uniquely positioned to build bridges in a world that needs bridges more than ever.” What Makes BNI® A Great B2B Business Opportunity?īNI has all the right ingredients and the right recipe to make for an enduring franchise. Since members benefit by expanding the number of people in their BNI chapter - and thus increasing the number of potential referrals - they double as recruiters, which helps BNI chapters grow.
