The BNI in Brussels: "Whoever gives receives"

Episode description
French

When some spend their time chasing likes, producing content just to exist, or spending fortunes on subscriptions or tools in the hope of getting leads...
reality quickly catches up with them: less than 1% of end customers.

Even on LinkedIn, views aren't everything. For the most talented or the experts, Perplexity talks about a conversion rate that barely exceeds 5%.

As the saying goes: " As long as the pitcher goes to the water that it breaks ".

And among all the lessons passed down from generation to generation, one remains universal:
" Nothing beats word-of-mouth "... or better still: " He who sows reaps ".

So, how do you really boost your potential and reach new customers?

By joining a network of business introducers.

At our microphone, Fouad Semlali, regional director of the BNI, reveals to us how this network works , its values, its DNA and its history.

For its 40th anniversary this year, the BNI is present in more than 70 countries and has more than 400,000 members.
The network has generated 26 billion euros in revenue over the last 12 months.
A celebrated model, often copied... but never equalled.

A little reminder for those who are discovering: "He who gives receives".

We chose to give our time, in response to an invitation from the NBI, and we had an inspiring and enriching time.
And you? Are you ready to give to better receive?
