📌 Superannuation — we all know it’s important… but how well do we actually understand it?

Next Wednesday, our Feature Presenter Raj Mudely, Founder & Director of DSM Accounting, will be taking the floor to talk all things Superannuation.

Raj will break down what business owners need to know about super, their responsibilities, and why getting it right matters, not just for compliance, but for protecting your business and planning for the future.

If you’re a business owner in The Hills, Norwest or surrounding areas, this is a great opportunity to pick up some practical knowledge while connecting with a room full of local business professionals.

Property insights, business lessons, plenty of referrals… and the Triple M team running the show! 🎤🏡

Yesterday was another power-packed morning at BNI Prime, and a great example of what can happen when local business owners come together to learn, connect and genuinely help each other grow.

Our Feature Presenter, Mirza Baig from Flair Real Estate, took us through “From Good to Great: How to Maximise Your Property’s Value” — and there were plenty of practical takeaways for homeowners, investors and anyone working within the property space.

Mirza shared real case studies, including some fantastic sales results, and demonstrated how achieving a great price isn't simply about putting a property on the market and hoping for the best.
Sometimes the difference can come down to strategic renovations, thoughtful presentation and staging, understanding what buyers are looking for, and having the right marketing strategy behind the property. 🏡

Thank you, Mirza, for sharing your experience, knowledge and some of the strategies behind those record results!

We also had an excellent education piece from Raj Mudely of DSM Accounting, who took us back to one of the foundations of successful networking in BNI — VCP: Visibility, Credibility and Profitability.
First, people need to know you.
Then, through consistency and relationships, they begin to trust you.
And when that trust is established, opportunities and referrals can follow.

A great reminder that strong referral relationships aren't built overnight, they're built through showing up, contributing and consistently doing what you say you'll do.

And speaking of showing up… our President may have been away, but Prime didn't miss a beat!

Our very own Triple M leadership team stepped up to lead the morning:
👏 Mel Hevey stepping into the President's role
👏 Mirza Baig as Acting Vice President
👏 And our newest leadership addition, Montana Ojeda, taking on the Treasurer role and continuing into our incoming Leadership Team.

Mel. Mirza. Montana. Triple M had it covered! 😄

There were also some brilliant 60-second referral pitches around the room, with Ujwal taking home this week's coveted Golden Mic Award. 🎤🏆 Congratulations!

Beyond the awards and presentations, we heard about referrals being passed, business being generated, lessons learned and wins happening across our members' businesses, the things that make these Wednesday mornings about much more than a networking meeting.

They're about having a room of people who gradually learn who you are, what you do, who you can help and who they should introduce you to.

So if you're a business owner in The Hills, Norwest or surrounding areas and you've been looking for a local business community where relationships come before transactions and referrals are built on trust, we'd love to welcome you into the room as a visitor.

🏡 Could your property be worth more than you think?

This Wednesday at BNI Prime, we’re excited to welcome Mirza Baig, Founder of Flair Real Estate, as our Feature Presenter.

With more than 25 years of experience in Sydney’s competitive property market, Mirza will be presenting:
“From Good to Great: How to Maximise Your Property’s Value.”
Mirza will share practical insights into what can make the difference when taking a property to market; from presentation and positioning through to understanding buyer appeal, negotiation and the strategies that can help achieve a stronger result.

Whether you’re a homeowner, property investor, developer or a professional working with clients in the property space, this is a great opportunity to hear directly from someone who understands what drives results in the Sydney market.

And of course, a BNI Prime morning is about much more than the presentation. It’s an opportunity to meet a room full of local business owners, build genuine relationships and discover how a trusted referral network can help grow your business.

What happens when you put a room full of Hills business owners together bright and early? ☀️

Stories are shared, referrals are passed, people learn from each other, plenty of laughs are had and most importantly, genuine relationships continue to grow.

This week at BNI Prime was another great reminder that business networking can be about so much more than simply exchanging business cards.

Our Feature Presenter, Sarkis from Fresh Star Renovations, gave us an incredibly inspiring look at the person and the journey behind the business.

From beginning his working life as a blacksmith, travelling the world, speaking five languages with English being his fifth, to eventually building his life and business here in Australia, Sarkis’ story is one built on hard work, craftsmanship, resilience and family.

And you can see that passion in the way Sarkis talks about renovating homes. 🏡
Whether it’s transforming a kitchen, creating a beautiful outdoor area or undertaking a complete home renovation, Sarkis believes a home should be practical, efficient, beautifully finished and, above all, feel like YOUR home, because for so many of us, home is our place of refuge.

Our newest member, Vera Chin, then took us somewhere completely different with a fantastic education piece.

She asked us to imagine ourselves one year from now at BNI Prime and think about what this chapter could become if each of us intentionally contributed to the growth of the people around us.

And she left the room with one powerful question:
“Who became better because of me?”

Such a simple question, but one that captures what Givers Gain® is really about. Networking isn't only about asking, “What can I get from this room?” It’s also asking, “Who can I introduce, support, encourage or create an opportunity for?”

Of course, we had some celebrations too! 🎉
🏆 Christine Muscat took home the Golden Mic Award for the best 60-second referral pitch, brilliantly rising to Jenny’s challenge of incorporating the word “spring” into her pitch, although there was plenty of competition around the room!
👏 And congratulations to Carol Russell from Your Finance Lady, who won our Lucky Door Prize in recognition of the fantastic networking and relationship-building she continues to do behind the scenes.

Throw in visitors, referrals passed, business generated, testimonials, conversations before and after the meeting, and a leadership team continuing to keep the chapter moving forward and it was another brilliant morning at Prime.

So, if you're a business owner in The Hills District, Norwest or surrounding areas looking for a community of local professionals who want to know your business, understand who you're looking to meet and genuinely help each other grow, we'd love to have you visit.

Come experience a BNI Prime morning for yourself.
You might arrive wondering why anyone voluntarily networks at 6:30am… and leave understanding exactly why we keep coming back. 😉
See you next week, Prime!

✨Bright and early, plenty of energy in the room, and another big Wednesday morning at BNI Prime!

This week was a great reminder of what happens when local business owners come together not just to network, but to genuinely understand how they can help one another grow.

📌Raj Mudely from DSM Accounting kicked things off with an excellent education piece on the difference between a lead and a referral. A warm, well-qualified referral can save a business owner valuable time, create a smoother path to a conversation and ultimately lead to better outcomes for everyone involved.

🏆 We also celebrated our July Notable Networkers! Congratulations to Christine Muscat for the most 1-to-1s, Norah Copithorne for the most referrals passed, Raj Mudely for the highest Thank You for Closed Business, and Bev Jordan for inviting the most visitors. A wonderful reflection of the work that happens both inside and outside the meeting room.

🏠 A real highlight was our Feature Presentation from one of our newest members, Ankit Gandhi from Jim’s Building Inspections. Only a month into his BNI journey, Ankit delivered an incredibly confident and informative first presentation.

He took us inside a real building inspection report and explained how defects are identified, how their seriousness is assessed and, most importantly, what those findings actually mean for someone considering buying a property. It was practical, easy to understand and a great reminder of the value a thorough property inspection can provide before you make one of life's biggest purchases.

🎤 Congratulations also to Jenny Graves from JenLegal, our Property Lawyer, for taking home the Golden Mic Award for the best 60-second pitch, and to Vera Chin from Vera Chin Consulting, who once again earned the Lucky Door Prize for her fantastic networking efforts behind the scenes!

Between the referrals passed, business generated, connections made, testimonials shared and wins celebrated, it was another fantastic morning for the chapter.

If you're a business owner in the Hills District, Norwest or surrounding areas looking for more than just networking, a community of trusted professionals who learn about each other's businesses and actively look for opportunities to help one another, we'd love to welcome you to experience BNI Prime for yourself. ❤️

⚡ 10 minutes. One conversation. And so much connection!

This week at BNI Prime, we changed the pace and swapped our usual feature presentation for a morning of speed networking and judging by the energy in the room, we may have to do this one again!

Members paired up for focused 10-minute conversations to connect on a deeper level. It was amazing how quickly the time disappeared when people started sharing their businesses, asking questions, finding common ground and discovering ways they could support one another.
And that’s really BNI at its best. ❤️

Networking isn’t simply about collecting business cards or delivering a 60-second pitch. It’s about taking the time to understand the person behind the business. Because the better we know one another, the easier it becomes to recognise opportunities and confidently make introductions and referrals.

🎓 We also had an excellent education piece from Christine Muscat of CLM Solutions, who introduced us to the DISC personality framework — Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and Conscientiousness.

Christine reminded us that people communicate differently, and recognising those differences can help us adapt the way we speak, listen and build relationships. A valuable lesson not only for networking, but for clients, teams and everyday business conversations.

🎤 Golden Mic: Congratulations to Paul Taggart from Taggart AI, who took home this week’s award for an outstanding 60-second pitch.
🎁 Lucky Door Prize: Congratulations to Vera Chin from Vera Chin Consulting, recognised for the networking and relationship-building that happens beyond our Wednesday morning meetings.

And, as always, the room was filled with referrals being passed, testimonials shared, wins celebrated and plenty of conversations continuing long after the formal meeting finished.

For Hills District business owners, this is what our Wednesday mornings are about: surrounding yourself with other local professionals who want to see each other succeed, building trusted relationships and creating opportunities for business to grow through genuine referrals.

If you've been looking for a local business community where people actually get to know you and your business, we'd love to have you visit BNI Prime and experience a meeting for yourself.

🏠 BEFORE YOU BUY IT, KNOW WHAT YOU’RE BUYING.

Buying a property is one of the biggest financial decisions most of us will make. But when that building inspection report lands in your inbox… do you actually know what you’re looking at?

Next week at BNI Prime, our Feature Presenter Ankit Gandhi from Jim’s Building Inspections is taking us behind the scenes of a professional building inspection report.

Ankit will break down what inspectors actually look for, how defects are identified, how their location and the seriousness of their defects are assessed, what those findings could mean for a property, and when further investigation or repairs may be recommended.

And this won’t just be theory, you’ll get a practical look at a real building inspection report and learn what you should be paying attention to before making that next property decision.

This is an especially valuable presentation for home buyers, investors, real estate agents, conveyancers, solicitors, mortgage professionals and anyone working within the property industry.

Because sometimes what looks perfect at an open home can tell a very different story once you know where to look. 🏡🔍

📅 Wednesday, 19 August
⏰ 6:30 AM
📍 Nexus Cafe, Norwest
📩 RSVP by 18 August

Come along, meet a room full of local business owners and trusted professionals, build genuine connections and learn something that could help you or one of your clients, make a much more informed property decision.

Visitors are always welcome at BNI Prime.

📌What if growing your business didn’t have to feel like something you had to do alone?

Every week at BNI Prime, local business owners come together to learn, build genuine relationships, share knowledge and become trusted referral partners for one another.

And this week was another power-packed morning!

Our Feature Presenter, Norah Copithorne from Nature’s Defence, gave us an exciting glimpse into the future of her business with the upcoming launch of the Mould Detect app.

Norah gave us a live demonstration, with members downloading the app and taking photos around the room to see what it could detect. Definitely one way to get everyone curious at 7am! 😄

It was wonderful to see Norah continuing to combine her passion for healthier environments with research, innovation and technology.

We also had a fantastic education piece from Raj Mudely of DSM Accounting, who brought us back to the foundations of BNI — our seven Core Values. Raj reminded us that these values aren’t simply words we talk about; their real power comes from putting them into practice. When we consistently live those values, we become better networkers, stronger referral partners and ultimately better business owners.

It was also wonderful to have some of our wider BNI leadership in the room. A big thank you to Bruce Manefield, our Area Director, for joining us and continuing to support Prime, and a very warm congratulations to Garth Quinn, who is now officially our Support Director! 🎉

Then, of course, we had some celebrating to do!

🏆 Congratulations to John Dale from GlobileNet, who took home the Golden Mic Award for an excellent 60-second referral pitch.

🎁 And congratulations to Sarah Deepti from DB Media, our Lucky Door Prize winner, after being nominated for her networking efforts behind the scenes.

But some of the most valuable moments happen throughout the rest of the meeting — genuine testimonials from people who have actually used our members’ services, quality referrals being passed, introductions being made and conversations continuing before and after the formal meeting.

And it was wonderful to have visitors in the room experiencing all of this alongside us. Thank you for getting up bright and early and bringing your own energy and expertise to Prime!

For the business owners watching from outside the room, networking isn’t about collecting as many contacts as possible.

It’s about building relationships with people who understand what you do, trust how you do it and feel confident putting your name forward when the right opportunity arises.

That kind of trust takes time. It takes consistency. And it takes community.

Thank you to our BNI Prime Leadership Team for another great meeting, to our wider BNI leadership for their continued guidance, and to every member who contributes both inside the room and behind the scenes.

Another week of connections made, knowledge shared, referrals passed and businesses championing one another. ❤️💙

Here’s to another week of networking and growing together.
