A common BNI meeting stimulant involves having members do the infomercial of another member.The Belleville chapter took that concept to another level.
Since their meeting day fell on Halloween, members were asked to actually BE another member. We’re talking dress like them, talk like them, act like them, and do their infomercial. President Andy Toennies actually ran the meeting, but seated next to him was a team of officers dressed up to impersonate the actual officers.
What followed was a gut-busting version of a BNI meeting, delivered by men in wigs, women with beards, and just enough inside jokes to keep everyone in stitches. Who said BNI can't be fun?
Oh yeah...the chapter passed more than 300 referrals and closed more than $275,000 in business in October. I'd say they were dressed for success.
