Next Steps for New BNI Members:

Congratulations! You've made a commitment to growing your business and our BNI Chapter has determined we want to help. These next steps will help you to build credibility with your fellow chapter members and be more referrable as you contribute to the success of our Willoughby Hills BNI chapter.

1. Create an account in BNI Connect: BNI Connect is the tool we use for passing referrals, sharing your contact information and tracking your activity like one-to-ones and chapter education units (CEUs). You will want to add a profile image, make sure your contact details are correct and add keywords so BNI members across the globe can find your profile when they search for your services. Look for an email with a link to create your account in BNI Connect. Your default username is the email associated with your BNI membership.

Once you have gained access to your BNI Connect account, make sure to download the app: available on the Apple App Store or get it on Google Play.

2. Access Your BNI Business Builder Account: BNI Business Builder (formerly BNI University) is your training portal.  Log in by finding a welcome email and following the prompts, or just click this link and choose "forgot password."  Always use the email address associated with your BNI membership.  Not sure what email you used on your membership application? Check all your email accounts for messages from BNI. The email account that has BNI messages is the account associated with your membership.

3. Take Member Success Program (MSP): There are hundreds of training programs in BNI Business Builder to help you maximize your membership and serve in various roles in the chapter. Click here to see a list of training programs available to you and start by taking Member Success Program (MSP), to learn the basics of BNI. Once you have completed MSP let your leadership team know so they can add you to the speaker rotation. The Ultimate Member Success Formula is highly recommended to continue advancing your BNI knowledge. 

 

HAPPY NETWORKING!

Remember, there are only two ways to make more money networking.  Either get better at networking or network with more people. These tools will help you to get better at networking and now YOU can network with more people by using BNI to grow your referral network.
