Joining Ham & High BNI is one of the best decisions you can make

Join us and you lock out your competitors from all our members' business networks - and in effect recruit us as your below the line sales and marketing team. As part of the 'givers gain' philosophy at the heart of BNI you also become a key part of the new business effort for every other member of the group.

And joining BNI isn't just about getting more business. You'll meet a great group of people with whom you can discuss every aspect of the modern business and trading environment.

You'll learn a lot, too. With up to 30 members in the group you'll meet people running businesses in areas you've never even heard of before. You'll find everyone you'd expect to find - accountants, designers, car mechanics, computer support groups, dentists - but what about cranio-sacral therapists and feng-shui consultants?

You'll find out how they all operate - and pretty soon you'll be giving and taking referrals for people and businesses you never knew existed.

There are a couple of formal hurdles you have to jump.

• You have to pay the joining fee and one year's membership.
• You have to provide two references - and you can be sure that they will be contacted.

Otherwise it's the easiest and most fun way to publicise your business. Cheaper than a worthwhile ad in Yellow Pages - and so much more fun, too.
