BNI is the largest and most successful professional word of mouth networking organization.
With over 150,000 members in 48 countries around the world, BNI is the largest and most successful networking organization of its type. While other networking organizations serve the purpose to help increase visibility for you and your company, BNI's purpose is substantially different. BNI's goal is to increase our members' profitability through referrals and introductions within our chapter and throughout our bi-state area. Members of our BNI Missouri-Illinois region passed referrals generating more than $683 Million in closed business
in 2012. The philosophy of BNI is Givers Gain – if I give business to the members of my chapter, in return they will want to give business to me.
