During his first year in LBN, referrals from LBN members accounted for about twenty-five percent of his business. The second year it grew to forty percent. Partnering with other LBN professionals, he also began an employee benefits firm with the potential to generate even more profit than his already highly lucrative accounting practice. Norm receives eight to ten new client referrals a month from his referral partners. He receives more than $100,000 in referrals annually and gives at least that amount to his referral partners. Norm says, “We selected LBN as our networking group because of the structured/instructional-based program offered, providing all members with basic direction over their networking activities. We found LBN members to understand the importance of relationship marketing and how to utilize relationships to create a marketing avenue for their businesses.There are hundreds of additional stories, but we don’t have time to tell them all. Here are some quick recaps of a few more: • Jim Motley started a computer repair business with $250,000 in sales his first year largely through referrals; doubled his business the second year; then doubled it again the third year.• Jeannie Kime, a marketer of promotional items, spent two years in another networking organization before joining LBN without much success, and then tripled her business in her first year in LBN. Last year, fifty-four percent of her business came from LBN referrals. • John Gentilia of Perfect View Blinds, reported thirty-five percent of his business from LBN referrals his first year, growing to forty percent his second year. • Doris Benson of Comfort Zone Heating and Cooling, developed one hundred new customers in her first six months in LBN. • Ed Koerner, a mortgage lender, received thirty-six referrals in his first six months in LBN. • Brian Jenks, a commercial lender, received referrals for real estate financing for projects of $12 million and $15 million.• Attorney Brian Rolfe got a lead for a $50,000 client within a few weeks after joining LBN. • Julie Greene, a financial planner, reported commissions of $20,000 on leads from her LBN group and had expectations that that number would double the next year. • Ron Tremper, owner of a party rental business, received roughly fifty percent of his business from LBN referrals and was able to expand into new markets simply on the basis of business generated by a single LBN referral partner. • Kirk Falvay, an attorney, gave and received twenty-to-thirty new customers in a partnering arrangement with an accountant and financial planner in LBN.• Robert Light, owner of a human resources firm, was able to stop an advertising campaign costing roughly $5,000 per ad because networking, at a cost under $1,000 a year, generated as much new business. • Robert Breitman, owner of a Web site development firm, and Ted Nathan, owner of a computer services firm, developed such strong ties as members of an LBN chapter, that they joined forces to form a new, larger and more powerful firm capable of serving a broader range of client needs and larger businesses.
