Business Association of Columbia
7 Reasons to Join BAC
Why should a local business person join a networking club? Specifically, why would they join the Business Association of Columbia?
By joining BAC you will...
1. Increase Your Visibility
In BAC you will get to know a couple of dozen like-minded local business people.
2. Offer a Value Proposition
You will be able to demonstrate the value of your offerings to your new colleagues. In turn, they will be able to recommend you to their clients.
3. Establish Credibility and Expertise
Nobody hires anybody that they don't trust. By working with other BAC members, you will be able to educate the group on key facets of your industry thus demonstrating your credibitity and expertise.
4. Build Strong Professional Relationships
Any business person who survives in the long term needs support. Let the BAC become a ravenous sales team...pushing referrals to you on a regular basis.
5. Become a "go-to" guy for your clients
Ever have a client ask you if you work on "xyz" but you don't. I don't know about you but I never like to give a plan "NO" answer. As a BAC member you will be able to say "no, but I know a great, trustworthy person who is in that business. Can I have her call you?" That's a much better answer.
6. Lock Out Your Direct Competitors
Only one company per field is allowed into the club.
7. Increase Your Profits
More leads + more salespeople + more business = more money in your pocket.
