Networking is a well-established business practice across the world for a very good reason – it works. At least it does if it’s done properly. BNI have been the leading practitioner of business networking for over 20 years, with over 100,000 members worldwide; it is estimated over £1 billion of business is generated through BNI per year.
No wonder then that BNI Woking is one of the most successful business networking organisations in Surrey. Whether you are in a business, a trade or profession, if you are good at what you do and want to grow your business then you should consider joining the group.
BNI Woking meet every Tuesday at 06:30am at De Vere Venues Gorse Hill, just west of Woking (backing onto Woking Golf Club).
Through these meetings the group facilitates networking between businesses in towns such as Woking, Guildford, Byfleet, Chobham and Chertsey, and throughout Surrey.
Networking with BNI will help improve and grow your business by:
- Capitalising on your own strong skills and good reputation
- Harnessing the power of 'word of mouth' recommendation
- Building confidence so you enjoy promoting your business
- Building a network of local contacts to help with many aspects of your business
- Developing a reputation as someone who is well-connected and can help
- Being given qualified leads by other members almost every week
In addition to BNI Woking members, these breakfast meetings involve visitors and guests from the local area as well as from other BNI groups around Surrey and throughout the UK This gives members opportunities to learn from, and put questions to, experts in other fields and get valuable advice, and possibly even more contacts (and prospects) further afield.
BNI Networking Meetings
Breakfast meetings are structured in order to make the most of everyone's valuable time, and so members can start their working day with a nice new referral or two:
| 6.40am | Open networking and chat over tea and coffee. |
| 7.00am | Breakfast is served from the buffet; Continental or Full English. |
| 7.15am | 1-minute presentations from each member and guest to briefly describe the service they provide, and what sort of referrals they are looking for. |
| 7.50am | 10-minute presentation; each week one member is given an opportunity to present a more detailed overview of their business. |
| 8.00am | Each member gets the chance to give out and receive qualified business referrals to/from other members and visitors. |
| 8.30am | Meeting ends. |
Joining BNI Woking
Networks are always better when bigger, and BNI Woking are always looking for new members to grow their network and make more connections. More business between members is great for the local economy too; why buy services and supplies from far and wide when they’re available locally and you will get the best personal service from someone you actually know?
BNI Woking encourage all business owners to come to a meeting as a visitor and see what’s involved, with no obligation.
