Meeting Format

BNI meetings are based on a structured 90 minute (sharp!) agenda. We understand that time is valuable for business owners and executives so we strive to conduct an efficient meeting. We begin with 15 minutes of open networking. Each week, members have the opportunity to speak about their business. Regular meetings feature extended presentations by 2 members (by knowing more about each others business we are better able to refer business). Guests are also invited to tell us briefly about their business.

"Dear Business Builders,

I wanted to take a quick moment and publicly thank Nick Athanason & Doc Al Gadomski.

I am representing a client who just suffered a pretty bad car accident. I referred my client to Nick for representation on the personal injury and Nick referred him to Doc Al for treatment.

I just got off the phone with my client. He is EXTREMELY happy with Nick and with Doc Al. He could not say enough good things about them. In addition, my client thinks that I am awesome just for having introduced him to Nick & Doc Al. That is how the BNI system is supposed to work! The person referring looks like a hero. The referral gets great treatment. The person referred makes $$.

Thanks again to Nick & Doc Al for making me look like a hero!

If there’s anything I can do to help you grow your business or chapter, please do not hesitate to contact me."
