Day 352 - BNI Meeting

Every Wednesday morning I get up very early to go to my BNI meeting (Business Network International). We meet from 6:45am - 9am to do business over breakfast. It's a business group which I joined at the start of the year and has been an amazing way for me to network with other business men and women. It's also been a great way for me to get more business for Serendipity and without these meetings there is no way I would have done so well as I have done this year.

In April I was asked to take on one of the leadership roles in our chapter and then in October took on the role of Chapter Director which has been fun and challenging. For our final meeting of 2008 we did a secret santa and we had crackers on the table so it had a festive feel over breakfast and during out meeting. The main reason for getting together is to help each other get more business and every week we all get a 60 second slot to talk about our business and the kind of work that we are looking for. Will, in this photo, is a videographer but has a keen interest in wrestling so for the final meeting of the year he thought he'd do his 60 seconds wearing one of his masks, slightly different from everyone else's paper hats!
