Spumberg Thu, 01 Jul 2010 19:24:20 +0000 http://www.bnipodcast.com/2010/06/30/episode-161-make-the-connection/#comment-1450 Hi to everyone, I just want to thank you for the podcast about Fast Track and all involed in this program. As far as I know none of the other chapters in my area are involved in this program, but because of the podcast I just had to check it out. I did that and suggested to my membership to check it out on the website a few meetings ago. This Wed. I did a presentation, assisted by other members about Fast Track instead of my company 10 miniute presentation. I asked a numbers guy who's a member and handles my personal investment portfolio to analyis the numbers of where we are to where we could be if the chapter put the effort into this program. I summed it up and answered questions as best I could. I then asked for a raise of hands. I was hopeful for maybe 70% and was blown away by every hand going up. Next Wed. we will be colecting checks and ordering the CD's. My position in the group is a membership commettee member. I saw this as a way, like a football team coach, to hone everyon's skills and learn the the play book all at the same time. I want to thank sevral out of state BNIer's(I'm in New Jersey) for contacting me in respones to a post and reached me through my website to tell me what this program did for them and look forward to begining. President of the Chapter started to thank me for his efforts, I tried to stop him, explaining to him that my reward would come because building the chapter better will build my business better.

My birthday is just two days prior to yours. I have used the technique of "What are the challanges you have in business?" and the person just went on about the problems. I helped generate a referral for one of my fellow BNI member. That was one of my first Cross Chapter referral. Here’s Wishing you a very happy birthday Ivan!!

Thanks for the reminder. At times, we get carried away to talk more about ourselves, our business or even our chapter and forget the other person's needs. Happy Birthday, Ivan.
