What are important things to consider when sending referrals?
Answered by:
10 years ago, I chose to become part the BNI referral system at the invitation of one of my clients. This is the worlds largest and most successful Referral Organization with 35 years of consistent growth each year.
I have been a business owner for over 40 years and up until 2009 had never heard of BNI before I- got invited to become a member.
They have over 6,000 chapters in the world with over 290,000 members . The members generate Billions in annual referral revenue
They have developed a great system that is reliable and they vet their members.
Companies that don’t keep their agreements loose their membership. I also like the “one profession per BNI group “ so you don’t have any competition. I also love the relationship building process that develops into trusted professionals I count on to take care of my clients
On the few instances over the years where a client I referred had a problem I was provided recourse to get help with resolving those issues.
I did not expect that BNI would become my largest revenue producing client.
I look forward to utilizing the referral relationship experiences I have learned through my 10 years practicing the BNI methods of “Givers Gain” to grow my referral partners in the Alignable network.
It takes a significant amount of time to become a trusted referral partner.
I look forward to getting to know more about you business owners listed in Alignable over the coming years
