It might not end up in the Guinness Book of Records (then again, who knows?), but I was thrilled to lead an event that delivered results unlike anything I’d ever seen before.
I tried several BNI groups as a freelance writer and its a very poor system for generating long term writing clients. Most of my leads were bad and just recommended to meet a quota without any thought to whether they were qualified or not.
Heck I even got a referral to write someone's Facebook Marketplace posting for selling their car.
Plus some of the people in the group were just bad... and yet i was obliged to recommend them over my own network because they were part of my group.
