Does Business Take Summer Vacation

$1,742,080 is the amount of business BNI Golden Horseshoe members created for each other last July and August.

Last year through July and August in the Golden Horseshoe Region BNI members gave each other $1,742,080 in business ($1,588,406.00 in 2011). That’s pretty close to ONE and three-quarters of a million dollars reported in the months of July and August! We know this to be true, because BNI is the only referral network organization that tracks referral revenue.

Summer is a very profitable time for referral generation. Maybe it’s because people have a bit more time; we’re not quite so rushed. The kids are out of school and that may free schedules a bit. It’s a great time to catch up with folks we haven’t connected with in a while. We can meet for a coffee or lunch and even sit outside when we meet.

Does business take a summer vacation? Absolutely not! So book time this week, to meet with a referral partner. And invite a contact to your BNI meeting.

It’s worth it!
