Saying “Goodbye” to William Sweet

by Tom Jackson on July 6, 2010

William Sweet has been accepted into a special training program at Comerica Bank – which is good news for William (and Comerica Bank) but bad news for the Midday Referral Group. In his short stay with our chapter, William distinguished himself by immersing himself 100% into the BNI culture. We will miss him and we wish him well.

Welcome to the Midday Referral Group

by Tom Jackson on June 7, 2010

How do you generate new business?

At the Midday Referral Group, Danville we exchange business referrals through word-of-mouth marketing following the principles outlined by BNI (Business Network International).

We operate on the Givers Gain philosophy in that those who give business freely to others will benefit by getting business in return.

BNI is unique in that it allows only one person per profession to join a chapter. Thus, once you’ve joined, none of your competitors can participate in that chapter. Your fellow members are your sales representatives.

Adoption Anniversary June 2

Okay, it’s more like “Displaying It on the Front Lawn” but public displays of emotion or happiness or gratefulness always bring a wonderful range of responses, both from the recipients and also the witnesses. And the best lawn displays in the East Bay are provided by Greetings By The Yard.

Go ahead, tell the world how you feel: Shout It From the Rooftops!

Goodbye to Nelson Atkinson

by Tom Jackson on June 7, 2010

It is with real sadness that we must bid farewell to Nelson Atkinson of Contra Costa Painting who is leaving the chapter because shifting family issues make attending meetings difficult. In his brief time with the chapter Nelson distinguished himself for his enthusiasm and professionalism. Best of luck, Nelson.
