My list of recommended vendors for a number of products and services. I was a member of this networking group, now a sort of honorary member, the downtown Boston chapter of BNI, Business Networking International, every week they meet at an ungodly hour, get to know each other and pass business referrals to one another, they also meet individually to get a better a sense of what it is that makes each of them distinct in their fields. The Downtown Boston chapter is possibly the most successful chapter in New England, between October 2011 and June 2011 they generated over one million dollars of business for each other in referrals in a group that had less than 35 members at that time. I think it's over 2 million these days.
I personally have used the services of some members of the group, and have met individually with most of them, moreover other members of the group have used each other's services, and many of them have used mine in my capacity as a handyman, we don't lightly recommend each other until we are confident that doing so will guarantee the satisfaction of our clients.
