Repeat the following mantra...........

After me.......

This is my BNI. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My BNI is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. My BNI, without me, is useless. Without my BNI, I am useless. I must give referrals to my BNI.

BNI is not for everyone, some people get fed up of the rules and regulations and constant pressure they put on you.

Next year, if you get fed up, perhaps you could check out BoB Clubs (Business Over Breakfast) they are huge in the Birmingham area, and membership is half the cost of a BNI membership.

Furthermore there is no pressure for referrals, you are asked to concentrate on quality not quantity.

I can only assume that you didnt know about them, as if you did you would not have joined a BNI Chapter.

The thing about 4N is that they fully admit they are 50% social and 50% business. Sometimes the balance has not been right within their groups and it ends up 80% social.

Adrian says that he want more business, business, business, if he said that he wanted a few more mates in business then I might have agreed that 4N would be the best choice for him.

4N dont have a referral section, if Adrian wants more business he needs a networking organisation that is focused on passing business.

If I want to make lasting relationships with people I can grow to trust to do business with, it will be BNI for me - at breakfast...

If I want to make lasting relationships with people I can grow to like and socialise with, I'll go down the pub in the evening...

Totally, totally different things, but I'm not going to spend any more time extolling the benefits of BNI, it works for me and loads others, and those that can be swayed by those that didn't get it...keep looking...

OP - hope it works for you, make sure to take advantage of the reduced-cost training it really helps (in ways I never thought of when I went), but good luck...
