About BNI West Malling

BNI West Malling was established in January 2007 by a group of local businesses. We have grown to a membership of over 30 members and would like to grow our chapter to over 40. If you would like to visit our chapter, contact us.

Belonging to BNI is like having dozens of sales people working for you...

...because all of our members carry several copies of your business cards around with them. When they meet someone who could use your products or services, they hand out your card and recommend you.

It's as simple as that! It's simple because it's based on a proven concept by BNI Founder, Dr Ivan Misner, called "givers gain." If I give you business you'll give me business and we'll both benefit as a result.

Would you like to increase your business by 20%, 30%, 50% or as much as 100%?

You can see results like this! Many have. Some participants at BNI have added as many as 50 new clients in the first 2 years!!! Successful businesses depend on word of mouth. Word-of-mouth advertising is the best advertising there is.

BNI West Malling provides a structured and supportive system of giving and receiving business and really works for our members.

It does so by providing an environment in which you develop personal relationships with dozens of other qualified business professionals. By establishing this "formal" relationship with other people, you will have the opportunity to substantially increase your business.

If you're looking for more business then we want to meet you at BNI West Malling!

About Business over Breakfast

The best business is referred business - That's why our international Business over Breakfast (BoB) clubs work.

You can get new customers easier and quicker than your competition.  Securing your exclusive place at your chosen BoB Club means you block out the competition, giving you the best chance of gaining referrals.

Our members are consistently referring business to each other, so you have up to 35 members promoting and recommending your products and services by word-of-mouth.

As well as improving presentation skills; boosting your confidence and gaining referrals, you will form strong relationships with professional people who are there to help you.

BoB club members get to know, like and trust each other and are happy to recommend your products and services, which generates quality referrals, for you to turn into good quality business.

Our fortnightly meetings provide the platform to network in a professionally structured environment that is relaxed and pressure free.

The first BoB club opened in January 2004. We now have BoB Clubs throughout the UK, India and Canada, and we will be launching in the USA, in 2010.
BoB club meetings are held every TWO weeks, giving you plenty of time to generate referrals.

Every member is given between 60 and 90 seconds to do a quick presentation about their business. Every TWO weeks one member is given 10 minutes to carry out a more comprehensive 'Showcase' presentation about their business.

There is NO PRESSURE on members or visitors to give referrals at every single meeting, as this only encourages people to give worthless referrals that are not worth pursuing. Our members are more interested in Quality NOT Quantity.

There are lots of Business Networking clubs, Business Networking Groups, Business Networking Chapters and Business networking events around the World. So go and have a look at them all, don't be fooled by the number of people that you see in the room. Don't forget that Networking is a process NOT an Event. See which type of Business club, Business Group, Business Chapter suits your personal style and then decide which one to join. Networking does not happen overnight and the more you put into it the more you will get back or as someone once said "Givers, Gain"

BoB clubs are NOT like BNI we are NOT like BRX, we are not like Business for Breakfast, we are not like 4networking and we are not like any Chamber of Commerce. We take all the best elements from various networking groups and strive to ensure that BoB clubs the 'best of breed'

Don’t take our word for it, attend as a visitor and experience BoB Clubs for yourself.
