It's Friday afternoon, you're ready to switch off for the weekend but you still have to work to get your next clients through the door. 😱

Adverts? Mailings? 🤔

It's recognised that Networking can bring better quality referrals to your business, saving you time and money

At BNI Business Connect, we have a need for a Family Solicitor, Conveyancing or Corporate Solicitor or all 3!!

We currently pass referrals to non local businesses and would prefer to pass this to someone trusted locally 🙌

➡️Broadband

➡️Mobile/SIM only
➡️Home Insurance
➡️Cashback Card
➡️Home Protection Cover
➡️Up to £400 to cover your termination fees

All of these on one bill, 1 award winning customer service and Jo available to walk you through the application and transfer (at no extra charge)
