We are a national virtual architectural office with one architect and four part time draftsmen. From our experiences with Debby Peter’s Connext Nation course we are now more focused on our target markets and know how to handle ourselves in most networking situations. We strongly recommend this course.”

I have been able to achieve a firm level of clarity and confidence that has positioned me to market my services comfortably. In line with this, I recently decided that I was ready to look into BNI. This morning I went to my first BNI meeting and despite my newness found myself fully prepared and at ease with my surroundings. Though the group I visited is likely not the best fit for me, I am committed to visiting other groups until I find the right fit.

“When I left the meeting, I found myself inside one of those pure gratitude moments. I thought about all that I have learned and gained from CN and how it has been worth every dime spent. A year ago, I attempted to go to a BNI meeting in Monroe and found myself sitting in the parking lot unable to go in. This morning I attended a meeting with great confidence knowing exactly what I was able to offer and receive as a part of a networking organization.

“I want to thank you so sincerely for the CN program and the education and wisdom both of you have given me. I know that I am successful and I know why. I am ready to fly!”

I’ve been a member of BNI for most of those 12 years, and felt that I didn’t need to take the CN class because I already knew what I needed to know about networking.

“When the economy took a hit, my business suffered, and I knew that I needed to start doing things differently. I finally took the plunge and signed up for the CN class. Boy, do I wish that I had done that years ago! I thought that I was a good networker, but I quickly learned in CN that I had only been scratching the surface of my networking possibilities.

“The CN class taught me how to ask better questions of the people in my networks so I can learn how to help them better, and how to be more effective in making referrals to them. I also learned how to develop deeper, more intentional referral relationships with key networking partners, and I’ve seen tremendous improvement in the results of my networking efforts as a result.”

With the current economy I have become more cautious than usual in spending money. I got much more than I anticipated from the CN Program. Not only did I satisfy my elective CE courses I have tracked new business gained by using the tools I learned in the program and I have more than paid for the class in just a few months. I am thrilled with the success I have had since completing the program.”

Not only did I gain more loyal clients, I realized I had more to offer and started an image consulting business.”

I am responsible for all of my expenses plus RE/MAX national and local fees, local multiple fees and continuing education which can get quite expensive. With the help and the benefits of CN, I am able to network more proficiently and zero in on my target client. CN has also helped me to develop skills needed to develop referral partners which is particularly necessary in this current real estate climate.”

People that became friends during the classes. Then they became referral partners which continue to build today. I have made lifelong friends and business connections thanks to CN.”
