Benefits of joining Oxford
Compare the Value of BNI Oxford
Most business people advertise, and we would never suggest that you stop advertising. However, compare the value between advertising and word-of-mouth marketing. Being a member of BNI Isis is like 23 salespeople marketing your product or service everyday!
Good Referrals
Good Referrals offer the opportunity to do business with someone who is in the market to buy your product or service. Although not a guaranteed sale, a good referral is an open door to discuss your business with someone who is interested in your product or service. Each member knows several people. This extended network is a rich data base of potential business available to members of BNI Oxford.
Word of Mouth
Word of Mouth is the most cost-effective form of advertising possible. BNI Isis provides a structured environment for the development and exchange of quality business referrals for both men and women. By comparison, getting referrals through a one day 4x4 display ad costs an average of £1,000.00, based on another a survey published in The World's Best Known Marketing Secret. Based on a survey conducted by Dr. Ivan R. Misner, each member of BNI passes an average of over $20,000 worth of potential business to other members in one years' time.
- Increased exposure to many other people and businesses.
- Substantially increased business through referrals. All new members should set a minimum goal of increasing their new business by 1/3 as a result of their participation in BNI Oxford.
- Tools to network more effectively, including an orientation cassette tape giving the formula for Success in BNI Isis, a badge, a vinyl card holder to carry members' business cards, referral slips, marketing materials for your chapter and much, much more.
- Member Success Program Training (MSP) to help new members get off to a fast and productive start.
- Participation in up to 52 networking meetings per year.
- Quarterly newsletters with educational material on networking, public speaking, and business.
- Participation in business tradeshows (where you'll have an opportunity to market your chapter and your business).
- Periodic workshops on networking (Professional Developement Training).
- And much, much more!
Join BNI Isis before your competitors
How would you like to get more business for yourself, while at the same time prevent your competitors from doing the same?
If so, BNI is for you! BNI sets up groups of business people with only one representative from each trade or profession in a group. These groups (called chapters) meet on a regular basis for only one purpose – for the members to pass each other business. BNI trains its chapters to be extremely effective at finding business for the members. BNI operates on the principle of 'Givers Gain' – if I find business for you, you will want to find business for me.
Business Networking requires commitment. The most successful chapters of BNI are comprised of participants who are sincerely committed to helping one another through networking. They are a team. BNI chapters provide a positive, supportive, and structured environment for men and women to develop their business through word of mouth recommendations and networking skills.
