We reported in July that Croydon’s BNI Foundation chapter was the second best in the UK – well just one month later and you can read that as top of the class, Best In The UK, top of the breakfast-networking-pops.
TheBestOfCroydon is still an active member of this chapter, and proud of our achievements as a chapter. We’ve worked hard with each other to increase referrals, generate business for each other, and generally become an invaluable support network for member businesses.
With 43 members, in the last month we’ve increased our referrals – and by that I mean active business deals, not just leads or recommendations – from 65 to around 80 per week. That’s an impressive amount of business buzzing round the loop. In real terms, this generates over half a million pounds every year between members.
It’s not so tough, the getting up early bit – especially as it ensures Maud sits still long enough to get at least one good breakfast each week!
The emphasis on BNI Chapter Foundation doesn’t end at business – it’s a lovely group and a lot of fun to boot.
Chapter Foundation meet at Shirley Park Golf Club on Wednesday mornings at 6.30am
We love Wednesdays!
