Merry Christmas from all of us at BNI Cuckmere! 🎄

As we wrap up another year of strong referrals, solid connections, and steady business growth, we want to thank every member for the part they play in making our chapter successful.

Enjoy the break, enjoy the downtime, and we look forward to hitting the ground running together in the new year!

The real trust is built OUTSIDE the room.

Our Thursday meetings give us the structure, the updates, and the referrals… but the real confidence in recommending someone comes from spending time together beyond the meeting!

Taking the time to meet up, have a proper chat, and learn who someone really is, how they work, what they value, and who they can truly help is what turns a connection into a trusted part of your network.

Shoutout to Jo and Dawn, who absolutely lead the way by getting their 1-2-1s in on a dog walk… even in the rainy East Sussex weather!

The strongest impact comes from LISTENING before you speak.

Our Thursday meetings are full of great pitches, updates, and shared wins… but the real influence often comes from those moments when you pause and TRULY listen to the people in the room.

Taking the time to understand another member’s challenges, goals, and ideal referrals before jumping in with your own message builds deeper trust and more meaningful relationships.

So, if you’ve been rushing to speak first… consider slowing down this week. You never know what insight you might catch, what opportunity you might hear, or who you might help by simply listening a little closer!

The meeting starts BEFORE the meeting!

BNI isn’t just about showing up on a Thursday, it’s about the effort you put in before you walk through the door. The members who get the most out of networking are the ones who plan ahead... booking 1-2-1s, checking who they can support, and coming prepared to give value.

When you take the time to connect in advance, you’re not just ticking a box, you’re showing real commitment to the group and to helping others succeed.

The more you prepare, the more powerful your networking becomes.

Do you realise the power of the right network?

Today, during his 10 minutes, Ryan Birch, Managing Director of Double Media Ltd, shared a different truth!

At our chapter, we’ve seen first-hand how BNI can turn a one-man band into a thriving team and in Ryan’s case, now 8 full-time employees and a fast-growing marketing agency.

Week after week, the support, referrals, and genuine relationships inside BNI open doors most of us couldn’t open alone.

And Ryan’s story is living proof of what consistent networking can achieve for anybody thinking about joining BNI!

The real connections happen OUTSIDE the room.

Our Thursday meetings are packed with energy, updates, and plenty of referrals... but the real magic often happens in those 1-2-1 conversations afterwards!

Taking the time to sit down with another member, learn about their business in depth, and understand exactly where they need support is where the strongest relationships are built.

So, if you haven’t already booked a few 1-2-1s this month… this is your reminder! You never know which conversation could lead to your next big opportunity, or help someone else find theirs...

Do you listen enough?

In business (and in life!), it’s easy to focus on what we want to say, our pitch, our story, our goals. But at our chapter, we’ve learned that the real magic happens when we listen.

Every week, we take the time to truly understand what our members need, who they’re looking to connect with, what challenges they’re facing, and how we can help open doors for them through our own networks!

It helps us spot opportunities, create genuine relationships, and make meaningful referrals that actually drive results!

We had a fantastic meeting this morning, with Matt Chambers taking the 10-minute speaker slot, and he hit the throttle from the first minute!

Matt walked us through how to streamline your online presence, avoid those hidden technical potholes, and keep your website performing smoothly. Clear, insightful, and delivered with the same precision he takes onto the race track.

It’s no surprise Madison Web Solutions are such a trusted provider in the local area, they know how to keep businesses in pole position both online and off.

And speaking of racing… Madison even have their own branded Fiesta competing in championships across the country, with Matt behind the wheel.

A business that performs, and a driver that does too!

If you’re looking to grow your business, build meaningful connections, and join a community of award-winning referrers, come and see what makes our chapter so special next Thursday.

Join our award winners and referrers today, and take your business to the next level!

Another fantastic 10 minute speaker!

Matt shared the highs, the hard lessons, and the hilarious in-betweens that come with running (and growing) a business, and it’s fair to say everyone in the room could relate!

Matt’s business has now been fully booked for the last 10 weeks, a huge testament to the effort, consistency, and care he puts into everything he does.

It’s always refreshing hearing someone talk so openly about the real journey behind the success, the trial and error, the moments of doubt, and the small wins that turn into big ones over time!

The future’s looking seriously bright - keep at it Matt!

Every meeting at BNI Cuckmere is a chance to learn something new.

From the 60-second introductions to the featured presentations, there’s always a new perspective, a fresh idea, or a piece of advice that makes you stop and think.

Sometimes it’s a practical business tip, other times it’s a story about resilience or innovation that sticks with you.

That’s what makes BNI different. It’s not just about getting business, it’s about becoming better in business. Each week helps members grow their confidence, refine their message, and improve how they present themselves and their companies.

When you invest in learning and relationships, the results follow naturally.

One of the best things about BNI Cuckmere is the atmosphere in the room.

It’s not about who’s doing better or who’s busier, it’s about how we can all help each other succeed.

Every week, members go out of their way to pass referrals, offer advice, and make introductions that genuinely move businesses forward. There’s no competition, just collaboration.

That’s what makes our group special. When one business grows, we all grow. The energy that comes from people rooting for each other’s success is what sets BNI apart from any other networking environment.

If you’re surrounded by people who want to see you win, you’re already halfway there.
