BNI Lancashire & BNI South Pennines - BNI the business referral organisation

What is a chapter?

Each BNI meeting is called a ‘Chapter’ and we currently have in excess of 30 Chapters across the BNI Lancashire & BNI South Pennines region. The Chapters meet once a week and have a set day and venue. Many of our members consider BNI to be their best client - that’s why they make sure they always attend, contribute and arrive early to meet with their fellow ‘Sales Team’! Meetings start at 7am prompt so you’ll be doing business while your competition is still sleeping!

How big are the chapters?

The whole philosophy of BNI is based on Givers Gain. Quite simply this means if I give you business you’ll work hard to find business for me. Chapter sizes vary from 20 to 40 members but it’s the contacts that those people have that are important. If everyone in the room has 200 contacts, business and personal, you can be sure they’ll soon know someone who’ll need your services. 30 members with 200 contacts is 6,000 potential opportunities for you to do business - this is the real opportunity!

No matter where you’re based throughout the BNI Lancashire & BNI South Pennines region there will be a chapter meeting near you. We’re also launching new chapters all the time so if you can’t find one close enough ask us if we plan to open a new one near you.

Remember: Only one member from each profession can join any chapter so arrange a visit now by going to our contact page
