Synopsis

How and why do you apply BNI’s “Givers Gain” philosophy to business? Dr. Misner shares answers from his book Infinite Giving.

Why We Give

  1. We give because we understand that in our community, what we do, others will do, and we will all benefit, particularly in a BNI group.
  2. We give because we know that in the same situation, others would do the same for us.
  3. We give because we want to give back where we have profited before.
  4. We give because when we work together, we get bigger and better results than working on our own, and we’ve really seen that in BNI.
  5. We give because we enjoy it.

How to Give

  1. Give a referral opportunity between two other businesses you know – maybe a supplier of yours and a client of yours.
  2. Give mentoring to a business that needs your expertise.
  3. Give your knowledge to local business groups.
  4. Give to local education and youth community groups.
  5. Give to elders in the community.

Practice Givers Gain in a way that’s right for your business. Once you make a commitment to using the power of this philosophy, it will fuel your business, and success will follow.
