We thought we had the highest referral with RM21million, now is RM525 million Are there any secrets to people who succeed?
An Interview with CHAN Seong Aun
Chapter : Lighthouse
Profession: Architect
Joined BNI since June 2002
Gross revenue generated from BNI: Project value is RM500M and Professional Fees of RM 25M till June 2007
Why did you join BNI, what benefit impressed you when you decided to join BNI?
To be referred to potential clients is the reason why I joined BNI. I was impressed by the supportive attitude of fellow members in referring potential business to each other in a mutually beneficial relationship
Of the top 2 cases, what was the approximate value of each of them.?
Case 1:RM300M and Case 2:RM200M
After 5 years in BNI will you continue to stay in BNI?
As long as there is the potential for new business to be introduced to me by my fellow members or their business contacts, I can see the potential for me to acquire new clients and therefore will continue to grow by client base and my business.
What is one positive comment or encouragement that you like to say to members?
If initially you do not get any referrals, don't give up. It could be that you are not asking for the right referrals or you are not asking the right way.
Another reason could be that your fellow BNI members do not know enough about your business or trust you enough to introduce you to their best business contacts.
All this takes time and some hard work.
It is NOT given that fellow BNI members must introduce their best business contacts to you. You have to win their friendship and trust, especially in the "difficult to refer" business like ours.
How has BNI changed your business or your personal development, if any?
In the early years of our firm, the only way we knew how to get new business was by referrals from our original clients who were pleased with the projects we had completed for them. However many of the clients who were happy with our work did not take any effort to refer us to other clients. Therefore had to find other ways to get new business. This is where I saw the potential in BNI's way of getting new business by referral. I have attended almost every new seminar and workshop BNI has run since joining and every one of them has taught me something about running my business better.
BNI is the Business school of hard knocks. You get to see many business people come and go, succeed and fail. You can learn from them.

BNI changed the way I do business, and has returned over £1.1 million so far!
Do contact Mark to learn his million pounds secret!
Mark Keatley-Palmer
Director of Sycamore Design
Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent
UK
Way back on a dark, cold and dank November morning in 1998 at one of the first Tonbridge Information Meetings in the Rose & Crown in Tonbridge, Robert French suggested to me that I could make a £million from BNI - I laughed.
I'm going to KL to tell my story to anyone who will listen and in a way to say thank you to Robert. I am very happy to let him have the last laugh, after all it was his faith in BNI helped Sycamore Design earn the £million that gives him the right to tell me "I told you so"!
Terima kasih Robert, di mana ialah kami bermaksud makan?
For many reasons I am glad I went, I was able to meet up with old friends, make new ones and importantly- was bullied by Ivan, Thomas & Penny Power into finally signing up to ecademy. I am still waiting to see what business will come from the trip but as it was NOT my goal anything will be a bonus!
I can not wait to come back again; waiting 16 years was too long (I spent 6 weeks in Malaysia as part of and 18 month trip back in 91) but it left me in no doubt that Malaysia is a country I still love, and one that is destined for great things - so no excuses for not returning!
The KL08 team did a great job and deserve the gratitude of all those who attended. As a company we work with 4 of the UK's top exhibition & event organisers I know the pitfalls & challenges that face any event; and having been to many National BNI Conferences in the UK and 4 International BNI Conferences in the USA as an AD I am ideally placed to give you 5*****'s for the event. BAGUS!
Kind regards

RM250,000 recorded business…..
Effective and proven………… unbelievably satisfying
Businesses generated in BNI has been so good that I wish I could stop the clock to register even more sales. I like to express my sincere thanks to BNI for such an effective business networking system and thanks to fellow members for your unconditional support.
RM250,000 recorded business……….keep records of referrals….
Within my first few months of joining BNI the referrals easily attributed close to RM250,000 worth of business, which is way beyond my expectations. One of my partners, Gerald Kong, dealing in software solution has closed a WORLD RECORD deal worth RM7,200,000.00.
Receive 15 qualified referrals in 90 minutes……….
Never would I believe that by opening my "SHOP" for about 1 1/2 hours in the morning that I would be able to receive 5, 10 and even 15 qualified referrals.
Don’t procrastinate to join BNI…….
If I had not procrastinated in the first place to visit and join I would have received a further RM30,000
BNI is more than just a meeting…………
I have also learnt a lot of business skills to apply to my own business, in dealings with customers, suppliers and friends
BNI Millionaires…. Mix with the right people…………
Not only do I find business networking effective in BNI, there are a lot of great friends around as well, and of course BNI millionaires too!

Thanks to BNI, my business is growing
I definitely believe in BNI. It WORKS for me.
Nelson Ng
After 12 months in BNI , I am still continuing to secure transacted business at least RM10K per month from our fellow Uptowners referrals, which equates to RM120K per year. This may be little to other businesses but to me, it's so great and FANTASTIC. Through BNI my business is growing, for sure. I believe, my business will be double, triple and to millions. This is the power of networking in BNI. No other organization that I know of can do this so effectively. Just imagine you have 50 over sales person in a team to promote your services without cost. Thanks to BNI Malaysia to strive for excellence and provide ever greater value to support our business growth.
Thanks to Kenny Hoo, who introduced me to BNI. I am forever grateful to him! |

Name: Alvin Soh
Profession: New and Used Car Dealer
Chapter: Synergy Chapter
When Joined: 1 August 2001
Benefits of joining BNI:
Ahead of expectation....
This year, I have set my goal to achieve RM500k gross sales, and I have achieved it within 5 months!! Last year, 2004, I achieved the same amount in 12 months.
Set your goals.....do your dance...
What I learnt is, we need to set our own goals in the beginning of the year and achieve our goals by doing regular one to one dance with all your chapter members.
Bonus….BNI is more than just a meeting….
The bonus of my participation is I have also learnt to speak publicly without looking at the script . I am now more confident to stand in front of a big crowds to speak, due to the weekly practice. |

"Life is Great with GOOD FENG SHUI !"
Kenny Hoo, GOOD FENG SHUI. Geomantic Research, Uptown Chapter
Since I joined BNI in April 2004, till end December 2004, I observed that BNI actually contributes more than 50% of my total business!
I am expecting to grow my business, from BNI , to 80% in 2005! The spin-off business and the potential visibility are much greater than what I can imagine! I have never thought that BNI can give me this kind of business volume and superb network! This is the beauty of BNI and that's why without any single doubt, I signed up a 2-year early renewal! |

Irene Chan - Chan Brothers Printing, Bangsar Chapter
I have been with BNI for 3 years and my business have grown to more than 50% all by the referrals and spin-offs that I've received . It has given me the best in terms of business and fellowships and not only these it has also groomed me to be more independent, self-confidence, better in public speaking and also more focus in my business strategies.
Without BNI and all the members who have confidence and supported me would my business have grown?
So I like to say " THANK YOU " to everyone ! |

“BNI is my top ten referral source……Ann proclaims”
Ann Choo joined BNI Suria Chapter in Feb 2002
By August 2004, Ann has received total revenue amounting to RM115,000
Revenue received for 2004 has already DOUBLED what was achieved in 2003. It gets better, the longer you stay in BNI.
Ann likes BNI’s system of building trusting and long-lasting relationship, and the philosophy of Givers Gain. She said the more you give, the more you will receive in return.
Her secret to her success in BNI is to go after every referral like it’s your first referral!
BNI has changed her business in many ways: She said,
1. BNI has taught me how to be more customer-focused and not take my customers and my success for granted
2. BNI has reinforced my follow-up system with members, visitors, customers and prospects, thus increasing my visibility with people
3. BNI has provided a platform for me to stay in touch with my prospects by inviting them to a BNI meeting, thus increasing my credibility
One largest single account referred to her through BNI was worth RM40,000 in business. |
