This week at BNI Zumbro Valley, we had the opportunity to learn from Ben Tilson with Tilson’s Auto Repair during their featured presentation.

Their topic—“What Does It Mean?”—walked through the various car warning signals and dashboard indicators, helping members better understand what these alerts actually represent and when action is needed.

From check engine lights to routine maintenance reminders, the presentation highlighted the importance of not ignoring these signals and how proactive care can help prevent larger, more costly issues down the road.

Thank you to Tilson’s Auto Repair for providing practical, easy-to-understand insights that help both our members and the clients we serve make more informed decisions.

This week at BNI Zumbro Valley, we had the opportunity to hear an impactful education presentation from Mark Nelson of Service Pros Plumbing MN.

Mark focused on the importance of building trustworthy, long-term relationships as the foundation for sustainable business growth. His message reinforced that true success in business is not built on quick wins, but on consistency, reliability, and delivering value over time.

Adding a memorable touch to his presentation, Mark wore a traditional plumbing outfit—serving as a visual reminder that trust is earned through years of hands-on experience, dedication, and showing up for your clients day after day.

Thank you, Mark, for the insightful presentation and for reinforcing the core values that make BNI such a powerful network.
