You see my potrait picture in my profile?

Half the world asked me, what the heck is that BNI ? What is that?
Lol, it's, Business Networking International.

Back to those histories, it's founded by Dr. Ivan Misner & some bigshot people, who wants to break through recession back those years.
I'm not a history teacher, you want to know more? check it out at www.bni.com

So, this BNI, it's a business and professional networking organization that offers its members the opportunity to share ideas, contacts and most importantly referrals. It's operating in 36 countries and of course not missing Malaysia!
And so they have groups, known as 'chapters' in the different regions of Malaysia. The one I'm in is named 'Power Chapter'.. Well, 'chapter' is just a BNI jargon, it's merely means group, dont worry!

And so, ME!... I've to wake up real early every Tuesday morning, probably around 5am to get ready for meeting at 6.15am - 9.00am.
Well, so in the chapter, it consists of members with all sorts of different professions. You get Lawyers, Distributors, Printers, Web Designers, Bankers, Security Guard, Health consultant, Hairstylist, Accountants, etc.
As for me, I'm representing my music business!: Music & Dance School, Music Recording & Production.
So basically, what we do there, is we exchange referrals, to members in our chapter/group.

Get a view of some snapshots in the meeting.

Mind you! It's 7.15am in the morning currently


Some of you might recognise that guy in front. He's KEZ the Hairstylist
(Hey!, That rhymes!.... 'Kez the HairStylist''Kez the HairStylist')

And then sometimes we eat together
Ahh.. get on the business relationship..

Left: I'm not satisfied with the food..duh!
Right: Wow! curry, Indians' fav!

Personally I've learnt so much from BNI being someone who does business. I highly recommending newbies like me, to join BNI, and it becomes like a REAL business school, just its Better, and heck!, you're in the real world, boy.

Of course, BNI is not flawless, and of course, it has it's cons, in my point of view. Well, I'll not share it here. This post, is becoming boring too.. haha

Lastly!, BNI has a song too! It's really creative. Composed by another member in an euro country i guess....
