					<description><![CDATA[I totally agree Colin - it is about networking SMARTER not HARDER.  In the early days of being a property valuer in London - looking for more business, I attended a lot of networking events, spreading myself thinly and getting little return on my time investment. When I visited my first BNI chapter (actually, the first BNI chapter in the UK), I realised I had found the magic combination - strategic, focused networking with a structure and clear system. The goal of the chapter was to develop deep connections based on trust - it required a regular commitment but as they say, the secret to success without hard work will always remain a secret... :-)]]></description>
