Givers gain: support Visitors Day for chapter growth
Our chapter is preparing with great energy for a vigorous Visitors Day on May 19th. This week members are encouraged to bring their 20 letters to addressed to professionals we would like to see in our group. We are actively looking for florists, attorneys, specialty tradesmen, and other business owners who want more business referrals.
The Greater San Diego chapter is ready in every way for more members to share business with. If you receive a letter from one of our chapter members, we encourage you to take the opportunity to lock out your competition from a vibrant networking group seriously.
Members, please bring your letters, and 20 additional names for next week’s letters, to our Thursday meeting so we can keep on schedule.
The Visitors Day system is a well-oiled machine that works best when everyone participates. The benefits of that effort are obvious with new members who will share business with us.

Visitors Day is a significant opportunity for our chapter to reach new business owners with the idea of BNI and bring in new members we can refer business to. The health and vibrancy of any chapter depends on existing members bringing in visitors to expand our referral base, and hopefully those visitors convert to membership, further expanding the people we trust in doing business with.
Members, please use Visitors Day as the opporutnity it is to expand your network. If you are not a member of a BNI chapter and receive a letter inviting you to a Visitors Day, please consider how you could increase your business if you had 25-40 people talking about your service or product when they hear an opportunity.
Our chapter’s Visitors Day will be on May 19th. Other chapters throughout San Diego will be holding theirs on different days. It is good for business.
