Independence BNI Referral Group

Where & When?
The Overlook Venue
5313 Hauserman Rd
Parma, OH 44130
(Located behind the Parma Armory)
Thursdays, 7am Sharp!

Who & Why?
Leaders in the local business community meet regularly to maintain a pulse on local business, build professional relationships, and increase the impact of their own endeavors via personal introductions and warm referrals.

What is BNI?
BNI was established in 1985 to help local professionals increase their influence and impact through a structured, positive and professional environment which enables development of long-term, meaningful relationships with quality business professionals.

What can I expect?
Each week regular participants and visitors all have a brief opportunity to share trends in their businesses and/or how they add value for their clients and network. The agenda also intentionally includes time to help others with networking connections and business referrals. In this environment, givers gain!

What does the agenda look like?
7:00am - 7:15am; Open Networking (arrive before 7:00am to say hello, check microphone, video, etc)
7:15am - 8:29am; Structured Agenda (introductory information, attendee introductions, featured speakers, business referrals and networking connections - and more!)
Maintaining ongoing professional relationships benefits businesses through all market cycles, as people continue to do business with - and refer people - that they know, like and trust.

Grateful for our alliance with BNI, we are an exclusive category organization that allows only one person per professional classification to participate regularly. VISITORS ARE WELCOMED! We value the opportunity to connect with new visitors at all events posted on our Meetup calendar. If you are a leader in your field, we'd love to meet you.

Meetings will be held nearly every Thursday morning throughout the year (with some holiday exceptions). Our Meetup event calendar is kept current.
