Another strong meeting this week at BNI Conquerors, with some brilliant contributions, plenty of personality, and a few moments that definitely kept us on our toes!

Tamara Sparks from FreshOnline delivered this week’s education slot on the importance of being prepared during the holiday season, especially when it comes to arranging subs. It was a really helpful reminder that if someone is stepping in for you, they need more than just your seat at the table. They need to be properly prepared, including having a clear and confident 60 seconds ready to go.

We also heard a great presentation from Cale Sinfield at Kangaroo Connections, who spoke about social media management and the role digital marketing plays in helping businesses grow. It was a clear and useful presentation that showed just how important it is for businesses to stay visible and consistent online. Cale also shared a testimonial for Shakira from Flintwise Insurance Brokers Limited, explaining how she helped him save money while also getting better cover, which is exactly the kind of referral success we love to hear.

David from Witcombe Surveying and Conservation Ltd gave the two-minute presentation this week and, keeping the energy high, awarded the Oscar to Roy Smith from RTJ Group for his standout presentation. Roy’s slot included both a poem and a live fire extinguisher demo, which is not something you see every week at networking.

If you are looking to grow your business through referrals and build stronger local connections, send us a message to find out more about visiting.

A brilliant couple of weeks at BNI Conqueror, with plenty to celebrate across the chapter.

Last week, Dave from Thomas Design and Graphics delivered a fantastic 10-minute presentation, giving us a great insight into his work and the value good design can bring to a business.

Today, we heard from Harvey Hamblin of Damian Hamblin Djh Scaffolding, who gave us a brilliant 10-minute presentation about the scaffolding industry, the type of projects they support, and why having the right team matters when safety and reliability are key.

We also had lots to celebrate within the room. Adam Toubi Estate Agent - TAUK won the Oscar last week and shared a great 2-minute presentation today on what sets him apart, giving us a clear reminder of the care, skill and attention to detail he brings to his work.

A huge congratulations to Shakira from Flintwise Insurance Brokers Limited, who was awarded Member of the Month for her positive contribution to the chapter. Her energy, support and involvement really do make a difference.

We were also pleased to welcome Tom Waring from East Sussex Gas Ltd as a new member. It’s great to have him officially join the chapter, and we’re looking forward to getting to know him and his business even more over the coming weeks.

Tamara Sparks from FreshOnline also delivered this week’s education slot, focusing on the importance of referrals and learning to listen out for everyday problems. Sometimes referrals come from the most normal conversations, when someone is complaining about a problem, a service, a delay, a job that needs doing, or something that has gone wrong. The more we listen, the more opportunities we have to connect people in the room with those who need their help.

Another strong couple of weeks at BNI Conqueror, full of great presentations, new connections, positive energy and real support for one another’s businesses.

Today was a brilliant Visitors Day at BNI Conqueror, with lots of new faces in the room and a really positive energy from start to finish.

It was great to see so many local businesses come along, get involved and experience what our chapter is all about. Open networking was full of good conversations, new introductions and plenty of opportunities to connect.

One of the best parts of mornings like this is seeing how quickly links can be made between our existing members and visitors. Whether it’s a potential collaboration, a referral opportunity, or simply meeting someone who could be useful to know, there was definitely a lot of value in the room today.

A huge thank you to everyone who visited, everyone who invited a guest, and all of our members who helped make people feel welcome.

BNI is always at its best when the room is full of good people, good conversations and local businesses supporting each other and today was a great example of that.

Another great meeting today at BNI Conquerors, with plenty of strong takeaways, a few memorable moments, and some brilliant contributions around the room.

Tamara from FreshOnline delivered this week’s education slot, speaking about the importance of following up with the people we invite along to Visitors Day. It was a timely reminder that the invite is only the first step, and that good follow-up is often what makes the difference.

Jenna French from Heringtons Solicitors brought her usual energy to the room, comparing her experience of running 50 miles to the way she approaches conveyancing. Calm, capable and making the difficult things look far easier than they probably are.

Shakira from Flintwise Insurance Brokers Limited also gave us all something to remember her by, sharing packets of Walkers crisps with the room as a clever reminder that standing out matters. A simple idea, but one that definitely stuck. She also picked up the Oscar this week, so a big well done to her.

This week’s 10-minute presentation came from David of Witcombe Surveying and Conservation Ltd,who gave us a really interesting insight into the types of properties he works with and the detail involved in what he does. He also took us right back to the 1500s, showing what a survey and project might have looked like for a client back then, from the way timbers were made through to how the frames of houses were put together. It was a brilliant way to bring his work to life and gave everyone a much better understanding of his knowledge and expertise.

If you are looking to grow your business through referrals, build stronger local connections and be part of a supportive network, our Visitors Day is coming up soon. Pop us a message if you would like to come along.

Another brilliant meeting today at BNI Conqueror, with plenty to celebrate and some great insights shared across the room.

A huge milestone for the chapter as we announced that together we have now passed over £10 million worth of business. A fantastic achievement and a real reflection of the relationships, trust and support within the room.

Tamara Sparks from FreshOnline also delivered this week’s education slot, sharing practical ideas on where to find new visitors ahead of our upcoming Visitors Day on 30th April. With the date getting closer, it was a great reminder that there are so many opportunities to invite good local businesses into the room.

This week’s featured presentation came from Tom Mcshane of TM Roofing Southern LTD, who gave an interesting talk on the wide range of roofing services they offer. He also shared some useful knowledge around the different types of slate they use, giving everyone a better understanding of the skill and detail involved in the work they do.

A big congratulations as well to Rhiannon Gossedge-Jones from Rhiannon Gossedge-Jones Wealth Management and Nicky from
Clear Choice Exterior Cleaning, who both received their certificates for completing Passport to Success, which means that they're nicely settled in to the chapter and making the most of their membership.

There is a lot to look forward to as we head towards our Visitors Day at the end of the month. If you are a business owner and would like to come along, meet the chapter and see what BNI is all about, pop us a message and we can get you booked in.

Over the past two weeks, BNI Conqueror has been full of energy, insight, and plenty of quality business conversation.

We’ve had brilliant educational slots covering why visitors are so important to the growth of each other’s businesses, as well as how AI is changing the way potential clients search for services. Both topics sparked great discussion and highlighted just how important it is to stay visible, relevant, and connected in business.

We also heard cracking presentations from Nicky at Clear Exterior Cleaning and Rhiannon of Rhiannon Gossedge-Jones the finance guru, who both showed exactly why they’re the go-to experts in their fields.

The testimonials were flowing too, with Roy from RTJ of Sussex Ltd thanking Tamara at FreshOnline, Christian at Electrify U thanking Tom at TF Landscaping, and Shakira receiving a testimonial from Jackie at Percy Walker.

This is what BNI is all about trusted relationships, real referrals, and genuine business growth.

A big shoutout as well to Roy and Danny, who both picked up Oscars for delivering textbook 45-second presentations.

If you want more than just networking, if you want meaningful connections, quality referrals, and a room full of local business people who genuinely want to help each other grow, come and visit BNI Conqueror.

Come and see what the buzz is about.
