BNI Platinum One

30 seconds. One opportunity. No pressure. 😏

BNI online might be on a screen, but there’s nothing virtual about the networking!

Every week, we’re meeting either face-to-face or online, listening to what our members do, making introductions and looking for ways to help each other grow.

And there’s a little challenge thrown in… You’ve got just 30 seconds to tell the room what you do and who you want to meet.

That's just 30 seconds to make an impact!

Here's Nigel Walton from Backable, looking for introductions to networking groups, co-working spaces and industry associations.

And Matt Richardson from Project Works, looking to connect with buyers’ advocates, real estate agents, property investors and body corporate managers.

Different businesses, different networks, with the same goal; to help each other create opportunities.

That’s what we love about BNI platinum One.

Welcome Emma Taylor from Taylored Travel - our newest member. We're so excited to have Emma join the P1 team and to help grow her business together. Emma specialises in tailor-made itineraries for every kind of explorer. Boutique travel, expertly designed.

We asked Emma why she chose Platinum One:
"Taylored Travel is built on delivering 'ungoogleable' excellence and bespoke service. To maintain that standard, I need a network that operates at the highest level. I joined Platinum 1 because high-performance businesses belong in high-performance environments. I’m here to work with the leaders who, like me, aren't just looking for more business but for the best business."

Couldn't have said it any better really!

"No, seriously... I know a guy." 😂

Every BNI meeting is full of conversations like this.

One introduction.
One referral.
One connection.

You never know where a five-minute chat might lead. That's the power of networking.

"Who wants more referrals?" 🙋‍♂️

Every. Single. BNI. Meeting.

There's something very special about being in a room where everyone is looking for ways to help someone else grow their business.

Turns out, giving really does come back around. Time and time again.

The heart of BNI Platinum One is our people. Whilst building wealth for members is our goal, the most valuable part of BNI is building genuine relationships.

The right connections don't just create opportunities; they solve problems, open doors, and make a genuine difference in someone's life. That's the power of being part of a community that leads with trust, generosity, and a willingness to help.

When we invest in meaningful relationships, the return goes far beyond business to create caring partnerships to support each other in ways we never expect.

That's what BNI is all about. 💙

Building Connections Beyond the Chapter!

Last week, members of BNI Platinum One had the opportunity to attend an event hosted by the Associated Chinese Chamber of Commerce & Industry of Australia (ACCCIA) and Prime Land Consultants.

It was a fantastic evening of networking, sharing ideas, and connecting with business leaders. Events like these remind us that great business is built on strong relationships, meaningful conversations, and a willingness to collaborate.

A big thank you to Francis Goh for bringing together such an incredible community of professionals. We always value opportunities to expand our networks and strengthen connections.

Here's to creating new opportunities, supporting one another, and continuing to grow together.
