BNI: Brilliant Lead Gen or a Hard Sell in Disguise?

If you've been a self-employed HR Consultant for longer than 5 minutes, then the chances are you've been invited to join BNI.

Maybe you tried it out. Maybe you didn’t.

But either way, you’ve probably heard one of two things…

“It’s a silver bullet for business success – all my clients come from BNI.”

Or,

“It’s a cliquey cult with fake referrals where you’re forced to build everyone else’s business instead of your own. Avoid it like the plague."

So which is it?

Well, in this episode, I’m joined by someone who knows BNI inside and out — a HR Consultant and the President of a BNI chapter, Sarah May.

So join us as we dig into the truth about how BNI works, who it’s really for, and whether it’s actually worth your time, energy and money.
