Those of you who know me personally, probably know that I belong to a professional networking group called BNI (Business Networking International). The chapter I belong to is called The Sound BNI and it is located in Branford, CT.
In a nutshell, each BNI chapter has one professional for each occupation. The chapter members then act as an outside sales force and bring referrals for each other once a week.
Just like in the corporate world, you begin to develop tight working relationships with each of the fellow members in your chapter.
For our firm Rosen Professional Services (www.rospro.com) membership has definitely had its privileges. We can trace more than 25% of our business growth back to our membership in The Sound BNI.
So why am I sharing this with you? The Sound BNI is hosting a Visitor Day on May 11, 2007. This event will take place during our regularly scheduled Friday morning meeting from 8:00 am to 9:30 am.
Attendees will have the opportunity to meet a diverse group of top notch, local professionals. Additionally, guests will have the opportunity to see the BNI process in action. This is an excellent opportunity to network and connect with other professionals in the New Haven County business community.
This event will take place at the Parthenon Diner located at:
374 East Main Street in Branford, Connecticut.
From the I-95 take exit 55. The Diner is 1/10th of a mile north on the left side.
For more information please do not hesitate to call me at (203) 404-3974.
Hope to see you there!
