Crescent Beach BNI Networking Fundraiser for The Seidel Family

The Crescent Beach chapter of BNI (Business Network International) is hosting an evening charity and networking event February 21st. You are invited to help us lend a hand and have a great night out while meeting many local business professionals. Meet us at Main Street Grille, 225 Main Street, Niantic, 6-8 pm.

All proceeds are going to support the family of Kyle Seidel, a Waterford resident and East Lyme native tragically killed this past December, leaving behind his wife Kate and three children Samantha, Maya and Jesse. We are collecting a $5 donation at the door, and many gift packages will be raffled off. A cash bar is available as well as complimentary hors d’oeuvres.

BNI is a business and professional organization whose primary purpose is to exchange qualified business referrals. If you would like to increase the volume of your business, or just want to do “better” business through personal referrals, then BNI is for you. Our main philosophy is that people who GIVE business referrals, GET business referrals. We at BNI accept only one person from each profession to join a Chapter.

Remember to bring plenty of business cards to pass around, as you will meet many local business people eager to help you find quality referrals. Please feel free to bring a business associate with you who may also be interested in finding out how to generate more business through “word-of mouth” marketing.
