With the launch of BNI New Zealand Social Networking site now just a few days away – this seems like a very timely posting for the blog:

Very appropriate Graham.

Excellent video Graham.
I’ve started running basic social media training workshops in BNI Northumbria (England) for our members who want to get involved but haven’t a clue what to do. At this stage we’re concentrating on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and teaching them to use tools such as Tweet Deck to manage everything from one location.
I’m following that up, with those who are interested in using LinkedIn to benefit their chapters by finding potential new members and referrals. Some of our more technologically adept members are then helping their BNI colleagues to plan and implement social media strategies.
Social media will never replace word of mouth, personal referral but it would be a true Luddite who would ignore it’s presence and influence.
Keep up the good work – your BNI NZ site is the best I know of and if you know of others anywhere near as good, please let me know.
Warmest regards from your BNI friends on the opposite side of the Globe.
