The World's Best Known Marketing Secret
Misner, a motivational speaker and expert on business networking, acknowledges in his title that there is nothing secret about word-of-mouth ("W-O-M") marketing and advertising. W-O-M, in fact, is often credited for the popularity of movies, restaurants, etc. Misner, though, suggests ways to take advantage of the tremendous potential of W-O-M.
Ten years ago he founded Business Network International in Arcadia, California, by assembling a group of friends to exchange business referrals. Since then the organization has expanded to more than 300 chapters and generated more than $325 million in business as a result of more than one million referrals among its members. Misner offers examples to demonstrate the power of W-O-M, shows how to develop referral networks, suggests how to deliver a positive message, and lays out how to put together a W-O-M marketing plan. Recommended for libraries serving small business, professionals, and salespeople.

What's in your wallet?
Each member is required to go through BNI's success training, after which you recieve a card wallet. This week, we talked a bit about what goes into that wallet. Here are some suggestions:
1. Make sure you have every member's card. When you are out on your daily routine, you'll run into people who may need the services of someone in the group. When this happens, you'll want to have a card to give out. Each week, we pass a card box containing the business cards of every member. Make sure you replenish depleted cards.
2. Referral slips. Always carry a good supply of our most important form!
3. Invitation cards are available at the meetings. This is a formal invitation to someone you think would be a good fit in the SuccessNetwork chapter of BNI.
Keep your wallet up to date, it's an important part of the BNI system.
