Basic skills to generate more personal referrals

Q1 : How long do you need to be in a chapter before you receive

        referrals?

Q2 : How many referrals are you likely to receive?

 

There are 7 main factors that will determine this -

 

1.       Your profession

2.       The size of the group

3.       How supportive the group is

4.       How well you educate the group

5.       How much business you give to others

6.       How committed you are to the group

7.       How good your relationships are with others in the group

 

12 things you can do to improve relationships and get more referrals

1 Show the group you are committed to the BNI system – be there each week, be on time, don’t leave early, always have a substitute, bring visitors.
   
2 Always have a positive attitude – nobody wants to spend time with a member who is always complaining.
   
3 Help your fellow members to be successful – give lots of qualified referrals regularly.
   
4 Greet and shake hands enthusiastically with every member of your chapter each week.
   
5 Always make a point of sitting with members of your chapter that you don’t know well, not your good friends in the chapter.
   
6 Give dynamic testimonials whenever you can.
   
7 Always thank members for their referrals – go the extra step
   
8 Individually visit every member of your chapter, with the approach “I’d like to get to know you and your business better, so that I can be better able to find referrals for you.”
   
9 Be the organizer and host of social functions for your chapter.
   
10

Be seen as proactive in your group; Get involved in running the chapter.

   
11

Befriend the “underdogs” in your chapter who need help in learning the system (members who are not born networkers).

   
12

Use the services of as many of the members as you can – there is no better way to solidify a relationship.

   
  Be proactive in generating business for the other members of your chapter, don't just wait for it to happen.
