McKinney Small Business Owners

McKinney Referral Group is a new networking group that was born out of BNI and The Networking Team (TNT).

However, unlike TNT and other Networking groups, McKinney Referral Group does not have a “one member per profession rule.” The group is open to anyone and membership is not dependent upon business exclusivity. We believe that competition is healthy, and that it drives business. Our goal is to be similar to a Chamber meeting, except without dues and application fees. Yes, that means FREE networking!

We meet every Tues from 11:30 to 1:00 at Golden Corral in McKinney, Texas in the Conference/Meeting Room. Our meeting is still a typical networking meeting, so come with plenty of business cards and prepared with your 60-second commercial. Come early and stay after to network and schedule one-on-ones.

• Introduction and membership qualifications outlined
• 60-second commercial for all members AND guests
• The 10 Minute Spotlight
• Announcements, Referrals and Thank-Yous

We Even though we are a FREE networking meeting we still have membership rules. (You MUST be a member to qualify to do a 10-minute spotlight)

Membership is based on attendance. You have to come on a regular basis in order to qualify to give a 10-Minute Presentation. In other words, If you only make an appearance once, every month or two, you will not be able to give a spotlight.

New Members are asked to complete a membership application. Because we are a group of professionals, we want to attract other professionals to our meeting. But this also helps us to create a database of contact information for all of our members.
