Fidelis Commercial Real Estate Services
BNI and the people involved in our chapter (Southeast Texas Networkers) and region have allowed me the comfort level to be able to leave a firm where I was the tenured broker and a partner to start my own firm. When 40% of your business came from the dedicated people involved in your chapter it has a very leveling and calming effect on the risks involved with such a daring move. I could not have accomplished what I did in starting up Fidelis Commercial Real Estate Services without BNI. Not only do I have the complete faith in these people to deliver the business that I need to get going, but I also have the resources that I need to be able to do a start-up project. Everything I needed to start my business was right at my disposal in our chapter. You name it, I had it and not only was it available to me but it was from completely trusted sources. How often have you started a company and shopped for insurance, printers, phone systems, etc, etc. and been able to have these providers come to you and tell you what you need and not even feel compelled to shop them or review the information? Well, I did just that. I so trusted these individuals that I told them what I was doing and they told me what I needed and where to sign.
Now, several months later, I sit here and we are successfully operating where others would still be getting off the ground. That in itself speaks volumes. I feel so blessed to have such wonderful group of people to call MY TEAM. Every individual in my chapter is an integral part of my business life. The best part of that statement is that there are no individuals on my team. They are all TEAM players.

Seabrook Professional Home Inspections
The first year in business as Seabrook Professional Home Inspections was also the first year of involvement in BNI Strategic Alliance. Hurricanes Rita and Katrina complicated the process of learning how to promote the business. BNI was the one steadfast source of business that kept us solvent.
January 2009 presents another fine example of the blessings of BNI involvement. In one week, from one member, 28 top quality referrals were passed to Seabrook Professional Home Inspections. This was for 28 separate home inspections, each billed separately, and each to be paid as the property is sold.
Thank you BNI
Thank you Jim Butcher

BNI to the rescue !!
I have been using my Sales Manager Minute to school my BNI group about the newly arriving Dodge Sprinter Cargo vans, and sure enough they came thru again !! The first day we received three of them and Craig Landry with 1-800 FLOODED came in and took delivery of a 3500 Sprinter and the General Manager could not believe it !! Craig is headed for Iowa with his new van and when he returns wants three more . BNI is making me look like a HERO !!

Well, the BNI system worked again!
Margie Cowan in Colorado just called and gave us an order for a friend who will be undergoing treatment in the medical center this week!
We talked for a few minutes and she said she chose me, because of my listing on the website and because I had a tagline along with my listing.
I can't wait to share this on Wednesday at our meeting!

Joe,
I wanted to take a minute to tell you THANK YOU for referring ACT Pipe and Supply to The LWIII Group. We closed the Lease with them today.
The deal ended up being a $144,000 transaction with options to extend, so there is a possibility it will be larger in 3 years.
This was a great referral for us because we were able to lease ACT a property we had listed, so we made both ACT and our client happy.
As usual you are our hero!!! Thank you very much for your trust and confidence!

“I have been involved with many referral ‘groups’ but nothing like BNI. In a very short period of time I have received about 6 referrals and closed one of them that created almost $6,000 in commissions to my company. The latest referral I received is in the multi-million dollar range. Exciting is an understatement for what BNI has done to my business in a very short period of time. If you are not involved in BNI, you are truly missing the boat.”

Good Morning Bay Area Elite, I just wanted to thank you for helping me feel welcome to your chapter last Wednesday. I have attended many chapters before, and without any doubt I feel most at home in your group. It is exciting to see so many individuals contributing to such a well run meeting, it's actually hard to believe you just received your charter. I look forward to submitting my application and contributing to the chapter in many ways. Thank you for the opportunity, and I'll see you all next Wednesday.

THIS IS SO AMAZING!!! I JUST CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH!!! I AM SO HUNGRY TO LEARN THE ART OF REFERRALS, AND GIVE BACK TO OTHERS MEMBERS. WHAT'S ODD IS...I HAVE BEEN IN SALES FOR 19 YEARS, AND, SINCE I'VE JOINED BNI SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE A BABY LEARNING TO WALK AND SO EAGER TO LEARN MORE ABOUT EVERYTHING. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT WHEN ONE BECOMES A MEMBER OF BNI IT WAKES UP THE SLEEPING GIANT IN ALL OF US.
AGAIN, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH...THIS IS JUST SO COOL.

In my profession, I am building life long relationships. I take enormous pride in delivering the best service possible and helping my clients' reach their financial goals. Cutco is the perfect gift for my clients - Cutco exemplifies my philosophy with their classy, quality products that last a lifetime.
Since my business is solely built on referrals, mass marketing items have never appealed to me. Cutco's engraved products have enabled me to brand myself with my existing client base. Now my name, logo, and phone number is visible on a daily basis in my client's kitchens.
With Leeanne Lambert's consultation and advice on engraving, we made one minor change that made all the difference. On the flip side of the knife, we engraved a surprise quote "The best minute you spend is the one you invest in someone else." I include a note with each gift that tells my clients' that it has been a pleasure "serving" them. Enjoy Cutco!
