Let's win somebody a trip to Hilton Head Island! A BNI member, of course.
I’m
excited to announce BNI Golden Horseshoe’s participation in the 2015 BNI
Canada Membership Drive. The
drive runs 8 weeks from Monday April 13 to midnight on Friday June 5th.
Here
are the contest rules and qualification requirements:
- There must be at least twenty-five
(25) new members approved and processed to join the BNI Golden Horseshoe
Region chapters between Monday April 13th and Friday June 5th, to
quaify for ballots to be issued to sponsoring members and for a draw to
take place in the region. The prize is a TRIP FOR TWO outlined in
the attached flyer, and sponsored by the BNI Golden Horseshoe franchise.
For every twenty-five (25) new members, we will do one draw. That is, if
twenty-five (25) new members are approved in the 8 weeks of the drive,
there will be one (1) draw from the ballots for this region and one (1)
winner; if fifty (50) new members are approved, there will be two (2)
prize draws and two (2) regional winners; if seventy-five (75) new members
are approved, there will be three (3) prize draws and three (3) regional
winners; and so on. Each trip prize drawn from ballots in the region will
be sponsored by the BNI Golden Horseshoe franchise. How many trips do
you think we can give away?
- Each approved new member will earn
their Sponsor one ballot for the draw.
- NOTE: There
are 2 ways to Sponsor a new member in the region: i) If you invite a
candidate to your own chapter and that individual’s application is
approved by your chapter’s Membership Committee, then you are their
Sponsor; or ii) If you refer a candidate to our office for placement into
another chapter in this region (an existing, re-building or newly
developing chapter) and that person applies to join the other chapter,
upon approval by that chapter’s Membership Committee, you will be that
person’s Sponsor.
- In both
cases, the BNI group must be a chartered chapter by June 5, 2015, and if
so, you will qualify for a ballot for each new member Sponsored. The
new member’s application must name the Sponsor - there is a space for the
SPONSORS NAME under the MEMBER SUBSCRIPTION FEES section of the front
page of the New Member Application.
- Only one
person may Sponsor each individual application. NOTE: New members
referred to a chapter by the BNI Golden Horseshoe office, or the BNI
website cannot be claimed for Sponsorship by a chapter member – only
those members who invite, or refer, a new member to participate with
their own or another chapter in this region will qualify as their Sponsor
and receive a ballot.
- The Membership Drive is open between Monday
April 13th and midnight Friday June 5th. Each approved application
received at the BNI Golden Horseshoe office within that timeframe (and
date/time stamped before midnight on June 5, 2015), whether by courier or
mail to: BNI Golden Horseshoe Region, 3540 Commerce Crt., Unit 3,
Burlington, ON L7N 3L7, will qualify the Sponsor to receive a prize
ballot.
- There is no limit to the number of
ballots one member may receive for Sponsoring new members to join in the
region. Invite, invite, invite! The more sponsorships, the more ballots
and the greater your chances to win!
- The trip outlined on the flyer can only be used by the winning member and their guest. Therefore, each winner can only be drawn once.
Good
luck!
