BNI - The World's Largest Referral Organization

BNI is the largest business networking organization in the world. We offer members the opportunity to share ideas, contacts and most importantly, business referrals.

Use our Find a Chapter feature and Contact Us to see for yourself why BNI has brought businesses together all across the globe for over 22 Years!

BNI is a business and professional organization that allows only one person per professional classification or specialty to join a chapter.

In the year 2007 Business Network Int'l passed over 5.5 million referrals in 5000+ chapters with over 100,000 members in 39 countries resulting in more than $2.2 billion in business!

Belonging to BNI is like having dozens of sales people working for you because all the other members carry several copies of your business cards around with them*. When they meet someone new who could use your products or services they hand your card out and recommend your services. It's as simple as that!

It's simple because it's based on the proven concept of "what goes around, comes around." If I help you, you'll help me and we will both benefit as a result.

Would you like to increase your business by 20%, 30%, 50% or as much as 100%?

You can see results like this! Many have. Some participants have added as many as 50 new clients in the first 2 years!!!
