About BNI Woking

BNI is a business and professional organisation that allows one person from each trade or profession to join a chapter.
With over 4,600 active chapters worldwide, it is the most successful business referral organisation in the world.

Belonging to BNI is like having dozens of sales people working for you because all the other members carry copies of your card with them. When they meet someone new that could use your products or services they hand out your card and personally recommend your services.
Its 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. BNI's philosophy summarised is ''Givers Gain”.

Word of mouth advertising and personal referrals are the best advertising there is. BNI provides a structured, supportive, business environment in which local business people can get together to network, learn valuable new marketing skills and develop the strong personal relationships that lead to trust and the consequent generation of significant business for each other.
Last year members of BNI worldwide passed 4,900,000 referrals, which generated more than £1.1 billion worth of business.

Chapters meet every week for a breakfast meeting that lasts only 90 minutes but this gives members ample opportunity to compare notes, share experiences and keep others abreast of their latest developments and products. Efficiency and timings are maintained because every BNI meeting follows a structured 20 point agenda.
If you attend a BNI meeting in the UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia, the United States or anywhere else, you will find that all meetings follow exactly the same format, using exactly the same agenda.
They are focussed on generating business for the participants and there are no secondary agendas.

We welcome guests and visitors to our meetings so that we can show you how the BNI system works. If you would like to come all you have to do is contact a member - there is no obligation to join.
