BNI (Business Network International) is the world’s largest and most successful business referral network and Horowhenua is about to join in.
BNI ambassador Oliver Corby says the BNI Horowhenua Discovery evening is an ideal opportunity for business owners to join this highly successful model.
“We invite all businesses to come along. The Discovery Meeting is free and catered and there are excellent speakers.”
Corby says there are four thriving BNI chapters in Kāpiti and five in Palmerston North so Horowhenua is the logical place for growth and he is expecting membership interest from those areas as well.
“We already have 20 local businesses committed to joining a new chapter and the Discovery Evening will be a relaxed, informative evening hosted by BNI New Zealand’s National Trainer Monique Bradley, joined by keynote speakers.
Most BNI Chapters hold weekly breakfast meetings starting at 7am however Corby says this is someting the members of the new chapter will decide.
“One aspect of starting a new BNI chapter is the great level of support available, not just from the region and nationally but internationally as well. This is a fantastic way to network your business,” says Corby.
When: Wed, 6 May, 5:30pm – 7pm
