Money is tight for both people and business. BNI networking has solved problems
for house purchase, taxation, business finance and insurance. One of 30 plus referrals at the normal Friday breakfast involved many of these members. The referral was given to Linda Wale of Peaches Mortgages.
As result Linda negotiated a saving on the purchase price. The mortgage she found, and completed, saved £1,272 and continues to save money. The new lender also provided a free valuation saving more money. BNI solicitor member Almy & Thomas, the BNI handled the conveyancing and the insurance broker member Abbot Insurance provided an attractive policy. All together Linda saved the buyer over £8,000 and the purchaser continues to save more money as time goes by.
This is why word of mouth networking is the most valuable marketing method today. “Having members in so many sectors helps every business. It’s not what you know it’s who you know” says Lino Carlino, Chapter Director. “Our accountant IAW Accountants provides a valuable service to members, their clients and many others. Clover Leaf, charted financial planners ensure that your lifestyle is protected for the future with investments, pensions and IHT planning.”
So the message is clearly “come to breakfast and start to build business”. To attend the meeting at Ten Tors Inn, Kingsteignton, and learn about the secrets of business networking telephone Lino – 07908 073598. “Members come from Paignton, Torquay, Dawlish, Teignmouth, Dartmoor and Newton Abbot” said Lino. “But we have business for more.”
