Since joining Sunrise I in the 1st year as a member saw a return ten fold to my initial investment. I made some great contacts and as time went on some good friends. About a year ago I decided to for fill a dream to open a boutique Jewellers in a large shopping centre. This, without question the biggest/boldest move of my 21 years being a self employed. Certain members gave me invaluable advice which led to my decision then a long list of fellow members made this massive transition go virtually seamless. The services were as follows:

• Business advice
• Shop fitting
• Insurance
• Marketing
• Printing
• IT install/ equipment
• Signage
• Employment contracts
• Fire safety
• Tailored work wear

The store now up & running is a real life testimonial to the power of Sunrise & I have a massive thank you to give all of it's members for there continued support!!

Success for Edward's Trust

The Edward's Trust

I am now in my second year with Sunrise BNI having previously visited a number of other BNI groups locally.

Immediately on attending Sunrise I was made to feel welcomed, valued and excited about the genuine possibilities for business generation. This was particularly important to me because I represent a local/regional charity and I wasn’t sure how BNI would help me.

I can say without fear of contradiction that everyone readily embraced all we represent and provide, and immediately sought ways to personally and through their contacts, generate leads, prospects and actual genuine business/income.

For them there was the obvious engagement with the work but also a recognition that a charity is run on business lines like any other company would be but without making profit for shareholders or owners.

For my part, I have been able to bring quality business to the other members because of my vast networking experience and many contacts within the business community. This two-way street has been amazing and enjoyable AND profitable.

These fellow members of Sunrise are exceptional and have all become great friends and co-workers in helping to make Sunrise BNI the most successful chapter in the region.

My investment in finance and time is constantly far outweighed by the business generated for me. It is truly staggering what can be achieved through this chapter. So much so that I am always looking to encourage others to join and experience the REAL benefits of quality referrals, income generation and profile in a very demanding and competitive economy.

You should really try this out for yourselves!!!

Spencer is certainly "delivering the vision"

The BNI has opened my eyes as to how my business can grow, how it is received by others and how to market it accurately, after all there are such a wide variety of categories in the chapter.   Since joining I have gained a great enthusiastic team of extended sales people that have also become friends.  As well as referrals there has been important information and advise gained between each other which has proved very valuable.  My first and main reason for joining the BNI was to replace two Blue Chip customers which seems now to be inevitable and in the meantime I have gained a huge amount of work.  I feel I have been committed to the BNI since joining and I am now definitely seeing the benefit of ‘givers gain’.

John and Mike - some fantastic referrals

MIKE GATES

Kingate Press - Printers

I had a great referral from John Moore. The Initial referral was 18 months ago. It was perfectly set up for me by John to the point that when I had the first meeting with the directors, they were already very keen on working with us. We have now built up an excellent working relationship with the client, to the point that we receive approximately 7 to 10 print orders per month from them. Without John's input, it would have been difficult for us to get an intro into this client. It shows once again how a quality 3rd party referral really works.

John is one of the best contacts I have made through BNI Sunrise. 6 years ago we took the decision to move our accounts over to John - not just for them to look after our business accounts, but mainly because of the added value we felt we would receive from employing John as our accountant and business advisor. If ever there is one business decision we have made that has proved to be most valuable, this is it.

Through good times, and difficult times, the advice and assistance we have received from John has been nothing short of superb. He has worked closely with us over the last few years and has undoubtedly been one of the main reasons we have been able to move successfully forward as a company. We value his input very highly and look forward to continuing our business relationship for many years to come.

Come as a visitor and make money

RSM Tenon

When Jason Tonks from Fonesplus came as a visitor to our meeting, his business offerings immediately rung a chord with me.. I realised that I had a client with a 50 strong sales force that could utilise his services, as a result in a relatively quick time the client was signed up by Jason, who standardised all the salesman's phones and mobile networks, saved my client money and earned thousands of pounds for Jason. The company continues to be a client of Jason's and he continues to provide a great service.

Just another example of the power of BNI in the wider context!!!
