The meeting

We meet every Friday morning at Crewe Golf Club in Haslington.

Meetings start at 7:00 am and last until 08:30 am so that they don't cut into regular business hours. Yes it's early but it's worth it. Here's why...

Why do we do it?

The main question our members get asked is why they do it? The truth is there are any number of good reasons to come to the BNI. These are just a few:
  • It's a great way to launch a business - If you are just starting up or are new to the area it's the ideal way to generate an instant network of contacts and they are all ready to help you get off the ground.
  • It can help to sustain and grow existing businesses - let's face it, who amongst us wouldn't rather have more business and more money, or even just a better quality of business? The contacts you make at the South Cheshire BNI can help you do just that
  • You can learn new skills - many members find that the training and experience that comes with membership is just as useful outside the meetings. BNI can help to to craft a better sales presentation, cope with public speaking, learn how to make the most of contacts and gain more confidence generally.
  • You could make new friends - we're a friendly bunch and we always welcome new faces. There's no hard sell, we let the meetings speak for themselves. Of course you won't know unless you come and meet us ...
  • And, of course, there's always the breakfast!

Visitors

Visitors are always welcome and are actively encouraged. All we ask is a nominal £5 fee to cover the breakfast and meeting room fees. That includes a full cooked breakfast, cereal, toast, tea, coffee, juice and, of course, a networking meeting that may generate new business and revenue for you(!)

The agenda

We tend not to be too formal but with that many people in a room together, we find it's best to have a structured agenda to keep us on track!

This agenda has been developed by the BNI and its members and is proven to maximise business passed around the room.

If you are planning to visit us, you may want to know in advance what to expect and, more importantly, what opportunities you will have to promote your business to us.

A few testimonials to the BNI

"When I started my business I was new to the area. The BNI gave me all the contacts I needed as well as friendly support. I owe my current success to the BNI"

"I work from home, which can make it harder to network. Not only does the BNI help with business but it's nice to get out and make some friends in similar situations"
