Networking & Go-Karting
The BNI Leading Edge members are a pretty driven bunch, which is why we held a social event at the Centennial Mini-Indy Go-Kart track in Etobicoke. Zooming around the track as fast as the karts could go, the drivers were trying to get an edge in to overtake other drivers ahead of them. Friends and family joined us for this event.
It was clear to see the competitive nature of our business women and businessmen on the race track being balanced by the cooperative attitude as the members exchanged business referrals to help each other grow their respective businesses. Some members were Brampton-based and others were Mississauga-based, but they we all looking to help one another succeed. That's what networking and word-of-mouth marketing does for a business.
Why not join us for our next social event? Who knows, you may come back with referrals too!

Building business relationships between referral partners is also about having fun and getting to know one another in a different setting - see who's competitive, who's accomodating - and hear the stories from the spouses and partners as well!
Business referrals are very important for our members, and getting to know each other better is a key to building trust, which then leads to referrals and growying your business. All in a day's work - and fun - at BNI Leading Edge!
