NW Chapter Homework - only 2 weeks to go!Just like the military, BNI has it's own rules and regulations about our meetings. Instead of name, rank, and serial number ......we need to hear your Name, Business Name, and Memory Hook when you say your 30 Second Commercial AND when you do your Referrals and Testimonials! But unlike the military ....we're going to have FUN with it!! :)For the next 2 weeks, concentrate on saying your Name, Business Name, and Memory Hook .....but also make sure to LISTEN to everyone else's Name, Business Name, and Memory Hook. On Sept. 13th There Will Be a Contest! The person that writes down the most Business Names and Memory Hooks (timed test) wins a prize. AND the Business that has their memory hook remembered the most also gets a prize!!Winners and prizes announced at the Sept. 14th Mixer!!!
