On the Fast Track

Referral Connection in Cincinnati, Ohio, is 11 years old and until Fast Track we had never topped 13 members. Because of the Fast Track program we are now at 21 and climbing. It has given us a foundation for growth.

When we decided to implement Fast Track we needed a higher level of commitment from the group. While our core group is strong, in order for [...]

Leading to BNI Biz to Biz chapter increasing TYFCB by 250%!

Dr. Joe Amanfu, the education coordinator for Biz to Biz chapter in Tallahassee, FL, calls himself the “Education Coordinator on Steroids”—and there is good reason for it. BNI Biz to Biz is four and a half years old with 50 members. After completing the fourth week of the Fast Track curriculum, the chapter increased their TYFCB by 250 percent. When Dr. Joe gives you the [...]

Not just once, but twice!

BNI Optimum in Calgary, Alberta, was the first chapter in Canada to complete Fast Track, and now they will be the first chapter to complete it for the second time.

In August 2010 the chapter started the Fast Track program with 19 members.  The primary chapter goal was to add six new members for the 18 weeks of the Fast Track curriculum, for a total of [...]

BNI Greater Dayton Professionals - a Million Dollar Chapter after Fast Track

When BNI Greater Dayton Professionals describe what happened to their chapter after Fast Track they use phrases like these:

Leading Edge continues to strive to meet their six goals.

For BNI Leading Edge in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Fast Track is the way this chapter is removing the barrier to growth. We wrote about Leading Edge in February of 2010 just as they were completing the program for the first time, during which they grew from 28 to 32 members. Today they are at 48 and climbing. They are the #1 chapter in Michigan for ten [...]

 

On the Fast Track

When Lisa Jordan, the Fast Track coordinator for our region and our chapter’s assistant director, introduced Fast Track to our chapter, I didn’t want to buy the CDs and was hesitant about doing the program.

I said to myself, I started as a core member in our chapter. I don’t need this. I know BNI. Plus, I was really busy with my real estate business. So, [...]

 

On the Fast Track
Gain the momentum—and never stop.

BNI Wagga Wagga is the only BNI chapter in the Riverina area of New South Wales, Australia.  When we started Fast Track in April of 2010, we hadn’t recovered from a dip that left us with 13 members. Today, we are pushing 25. Our dance cards have increased, closed business is up, and we have more visitors. It’s critical to point out that a focussed [...]

VCP strikes again – and wins!

When Chesca Baily, Executive Director for BNI Oklahoma-West, decided to “try out” Fast Track, she picked one of the “tougher” chapters in her region. She calls it a trial by fire success. The Business Leadership Network chapter in Oklahoma City took the challenge Chesca offered and ran with it.

“If you had asked me before Fast Track how I would describe this chapter, I’d say they [...]

 

On the Fast Track
From 8 to 23 Members in 12 Weeks.

The BNI Madison Chapter of Northern Alabama celebrated its 10-year anniversary in September—and they have real cause to celebrate! Twelve weeks prior they were facing termination.

BNI Madison has always been around 20 members. “They were a solid chapter,” says Jerry Williamson, the chapter’s area director. “They just never had growth on their mind. Then, they experienced a bad year and went down to eight members.”

When [...]

How Fast Track breaks Chapter Rut Syndrome.

All teams can fall into a rut, even BNI chapters. One of the more common ruts is the 80/20 rule – where, for a BNI chapter, 20 percent of the people give 80 percent of the referrals.

Not anymore for the BNI Strategic Alliance chapter in BNI Houston East. They have turned the 80/20 rule upside down. You may remember this chapter because we wrote about [...]
