BNI - Premiere Chapter;  San Jose, CA

Business Networking International (BNI) celebrated its 25th anniversary last year. And do you know why BNI has enjoyed now 26 years of history and has over 6000 chapters worldwide? We have many favorite sayings and quotes in BNI and some are just repeated. "BNI Works". Members always keep this in mind, in great economies and in bad economies, because helping each other is what always works.

Imagine a sales force that meets once every Friday morning at 7am, ready to help? Each member helps other members in every way possible. We all help each other and are committed to it 100%. That is why BNI works.

Givers Gain

There is a famous book in the business world called "The Secret". The concept is that the impact on your life is directly proportionate to the impact on the lives around you. We take this seriously and that is why we need the oath. We must ensure every member has a positive attitude. Our ability to hit our financial goals depends on it. If we each give to each other and those around us, we will all benefit as a team. We all meet so early on each Friday because for the last several years, we have always exceeded our goals.

Million Dollar Chapter

It is amazing but true that 2010 was a record year for us. We exceeded a million dollars in closed business last year. This year we are on track to hit 1.5 million and have recently added our 50th member.
