BNI, or Business Network Int'l. is a business and professional networking organization that offers each member the opportunity to share ideas, contacts and referrals. With nearly 4,800 + chapters worldwide & over 100,000 members, BNI is the world's leading professional business networking organization.

BNI is a business and professional organization that allows only one person from each profession to join a chapter. 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. The philosophy of BNI can be summed up in two words 'Givers Gain'.

Would you like to increase your business by 20%, 30%, 50% or as much as 100%? Many BNI members have. Some participants have added as many as 50 new clients in the first two years! Successful businesses depend on positive "word-of-mouth" advertising. It has long been touted as the best and most cost-effective way to promote and grow consumer confidence as well as increase your bottom line. Last year, members of BNI passed 5 million referrals which generated 1.9 billion dollars worth of business for each other!

Started in 1985 by Founder and CEO Ivan R. Misner, PH.D, BNI provides a structured environment for the development and exchange of quality business referrals. It does so by promoting a team atmosphere, allowing business professionals to build trust and confidence in one another. This result is members enthusiastically promoting you and your business to their best clients, colleagues and friends. BNI only allows one person per profession to join a chapter. Thus once you have joined, none of your competitors can.
