BNI Terriers Friendly & Supportive Business Networking
Business growth starts here. Wednesdays, 6:45am, Crosland Heath Golf Club That's Terriers.

Imagine a business environment where people have your back, they offer advice, support, collaboration, personal development and help you grow your business. BNI is so much more than networking, it's a marketing strategy designed to help you grow your business through referrals. It provides coaching and support, personal development and peer to peer collaboration. So many of our members tell us that because of their membership they can now speak more confidently in pitches, present on stage, making business improvements, learning new strategies setting and achieving goals. BNI, not just a great business network but a support network too. If you would like some more information about our regional chapters you can contact us via our website www.businessnetworkingnearme.co.uk or email [email protected]

🏡 MORTGAGES, INCOME PROTECTION… AND A ROOM FULL OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES.

This week at BNI we’re hearing from Holme Mortgages, talking about two things most of us probably don’t think about enough:

🏠 Getting the right mortgage advice
🛡️ Protecting your income when life doesn’t go to plan

If you’re buying, moving, remortgaging or simply wondering whether your current arrangements still make sense, this is a great opportunity to hear from someone who actually knows the subject.

But there’s another reason to come along.

We’d also love visitors who could collaborate and exchange referrals with Holme Mortgages.

Think estate agents, solicitors, accountants, financial professionals, property businesses, builders, surveyors — or anyone regularly speaking to people buying homes, moving house or reviewing their finances.

BNI isn’t just about walking into a room and handing out business cards.

It’s about building relationships with people who can genuinely open doors for each other.

So whether you might need their services yourself, know somebody who does, or think your business could work brilliantly alongside theirs…

Come and meet us.

You might arrive for the presentation and leave with your next great business relationship. 🤝

Are you a BNI Terrier? Pop your links in the comments and let us know!

One of the biggest benefits of BNI? You get to talk about the stuff most business owners usually avoid talking about.

Money. Tax. Profit. Pensions. Investments.
Planning for the future. 💷📈

This week we’ve got Zoe and John presenting on Accounting and Financial Advice – two areas that affect pretty much every person in the room, yet are incredibly easy to put off until “another day”.

That’s where BNI membership becomes much more than simply swapping referrals.

You’re surrounded every week by trusted professionals who can educate you, challenge you, answer the awkward questions and help you make better decisions in your business and personal finances.

And because you actually get to know these people week after week, you can ask the questions you probably wouldn’t ask after finding somebody randomly on Google.

That knowledge has value.

Sometimes the biggest return from a BNI meeting isn’t the referral you receive that morning – it’s the conversation that stops you making an expensive mistake later.

Well done Zoe and John!👏

Better connections. Better knowledge. Better business.

That’s a pretty decent reason to be in the room.

🚨 Happening NOW at BNI Terriers!

Steve Moss delivering some genuinely useful First Aid training this morning - the kind of knowledge you hope you never need, but absolutely should have.

Great businesses are built on more than referrals. They’re built on people sharing their expertise and helping each other get better. 👏

Another cracking morning at BNI Terriers! 🤝

Dreams don’t just belong on vision boards — sometimes they belong on your driveway. 🚘

Joe Hughes from Leaseline delivered last week’s BNI 10-minute presentation, showing how the right vehicle can support your lifestyle, represent your business and still make financial sense.

Whether it’s the dream car, a practical upgrade or the right commercial vehicle, Joe can help you put your dreams on your drive.

Great presentation, Joe! 👏

Most people think the 10-minute presentation at BNI is about selling.

It isn’t.

It’s about understanding.

Lou produced a marketing master class this week for us to sharpen our axes and solve our marketing problems.

In 60 seconds, you can only scratch the surface. In 10 minutes, members discover:
✅ What problems you actually solve
✅ Who your ideal customer is
✅ The warning signs that someone needs you
✅ The stories behind your best referrals
✅ Why you’re different from everyone else in your industry

The better your chapter understands your business, the better they can become your sales team when you’re not in the room.

That’s why every member gets regular opportunities to deliver a feature presentation. It’s not about standing on stage - it’s about giving 30 or 40 people the confidence to spot opportunities they would otherwise miss.

Relationships create trust.
Trust creates referrals.
Referrals create businesses.

A great BNI 10-minute presentation isn’t a sales pitch. It’s a chance to teach your chapter how to find business for you. The better they understand what you do, who your ideal client is, and the problems you solve, the more referrals you’ll receive.

Why every BNI member should do regular 10-minute presentations

* People refer what they remember. If you haven’t presented for six months, you’re relying on old information.
* Your business changes. New services, products, success stories and target markets need to be shared.
* Trust is built through consistency. The more members hear you speak, the more confidence they’ll have introducing you.
* You educate your sales team. Your BNI chapter is effectively dozens of people looking for opportunities on your behalf.
* Real stories stick. A customer success story is far more memorable than a list of services.
* You uncover hidden opportunities. Members often realise, “I know someone who needs exactly that.”
* You improve as a speaker. Every presentation sharpens your communication, making you better in networking meetings and client appointments.
* You stay top of mind. Out of sight often means out of mind.
* You demonstrate expertise. People buy confidence before they buy products or services.
* You give before you receive. A useful, engaging presentation helps everyone learn something - and that’s very much in the spirit of BNI’s “Givers Gain.”

Our 10 minute presentations and feature spotlights are going from strength to strength with some excellent shows over the last week or so.

Tye never fails to educate on everything IT and today Melissa showed us how to use the tech with some brilliant examples of how to do social media properly.

Melissa asked for estate agents and property managers in the room and our members delivered with some fabulous visitors and guests that our presenters are likely to work more with.

Networking at its best - we’ll done everyone!

GREAT BRANDING AND DESIGN

This week we heard about the amazing thought-process behind delivering great logos and branding for clients in business from John Polley.

It’s always my favourite presentation as we see how a designer can encompass the values and beliefs of a business in a piece of work.

Well done John!

This week we will be hearing from Tye about all things IT support and cyber-security.

If you’d like to be part of the meeting if this subject is of particular interest to you then let me know in the comments and I’ll send you an invite.
