“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, people can change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” ~ Margaret Mead
We’re a growing group of enthusiastic and forward thinking business people who meet every Thursday morning at Kings Country Bar and Restaurant, Pinkmead Farm and Equestrian Centre, Kings Corner, Botley, Southampton, SO30 2HA with one purpose ………………. to help one another get more business.
Belonging to BNI is like having a team of sales people working for you. The other members of the group carry your business cards with them and when they meet someone that could use your products or services they hand out your card and personally recommend your services. Successful business people understand that ‘word-of-mouth’ marketing is the best form of marketing.
The supportive structure provided by BNI provides a business environment in which local business people can get together to network, learn valuable new networking and marketing skills and develop the strong personal relationships that lead to confidence, trust and the consequent generation of business for each other.
At Uplands Eastleigh, it’s our aim to educate business people and help them understand what business networking is all about. and to give them the skills and tools they need to allow them to maximise the fabulous opportunity that business networking represents.
BNI’s philosophy is based on the concept of ‘Givers Gain’. By embracing this philosophy, continuing to improve our understanding and application of the principles of networking and by following the structured BNI system that’s been proven to work, consistently, over the last 25 years, we can help you become part the most successful business referral organisation in the world.
As we only allow one representative from each trade or profession to join, we’re not in competition with each other. Once a business category is taken, competitors are effectively locked out from the group.
For an up to date list of chapter categories please click here. If your business is not represented, contact us to arrange to visit one of our weekly meetings as a guest.
Networking in Eastleigh and Southampton may never be the same, again.
