Namaste and Happy Morning
The Festival season is coming up starting with Ganesh Festival
What does mean when it comes to BNI??
its the Absentees!!!!
This is SRIKANTH MATRUBAI representing SRIKAVI WEALTH in the category of INVESTMENT SOLUTIONS
Yes...
Festivals are important
Of course, you need that break.
You need to spend quality time with your family.
And not just the vacation....sometimes your health too gets affected
But, at the same time...BNI is your Marketing Team.
There are more than 20 members working for your company, your product round the clock
You cannot ignore BNI YAGNAA
So..the alternative is ...
send a SUBSTITUTE.
But the biggest is finding the right substitute.
How many members here have an organized substitute?
Can I see a show of hands, please?
The BEST Substitute could be
(note down)
1. Your Partner ....Our ST Mr.Shivaprakash has a great Partner in Yelappa and sends him regularly
2. Senior Level Person (like our President sends his Manager)
3. Clients (yes...they are live testimonials and not bragging)
Especially clients bring credibility to what you have been telling the group and will be a live example to the Chapter of your success
4. Spouse / brother...(like Suraj Singri or Sajith do)
5. Children....(they know they are representing their HERO in real life)
6. Even your supplier / service provider could make a good sub
7. Last....and if there is no alternative.....your junior-level employee
*WHOM NOT TO HAVE*
1. Members from another chapter
2. Ex BNI member
Sending a substitute will not only help in continuing your marketing but also show to the Chapter that you are COMMITTED to the chapter's growth.
Additionally, if you have a substitute it is not counted as an absence and you can save those for those rare emergencies when you don’t have the time to find a sub.
How to prepare the substitute....
This I will cover some other time.
So, Yagnites...there are 2 guarantees in life...
1 is Death
2 is Taxes
and there is a 3rd and that is
Getting absent in BNI but
we at BNI Yagnaa will change it and reverse it by
GOOD PROPER SUBSTITUTE.
Have a Great Week Ahead..
