🚨 PESTS & PROTECTION… last week’s BNI speakers had us covered! 🚨

Last week we got to hear from two awesome members, and apparently the theme was: protect your business at all costs! 😂👏

🐜 Brent Magruder with SWAT Pest gave us the rundown on everything they can do to handle those unwanted guests.

Because when the bugs move in without paying rent… SEND IN THE SWAT TEAM! 🚨🐜😂

Whether they’re crawling, flying, sneaking around, or just plain NOT invited—we know who to call. Brent is the guy 😉

Then we heard from Chris Davidson with Tri-State Insurance Group, who shared all the ways he can help businesses make sure they’re properly protected. 🛡️

Because getting rid of pests is great… but protecting the actual business is pretty important too. 😂

So basically, last week we learned:

Got bugs? Call Brent. 🐜
Got a business? Call Chris. 🛡️
Want to grow that business? Come visit heavy hitters BNI! 🤝📈

Huge thank you to Brent and Chris for two great presentations and for sharing their expertise with us!

We love getting to learn more about our members, their businesses, and all the different ways we can confidently refer them to others. 💙

Why is it that short weeks seem to be the longest? 🤔 Last week was abbreviated by Labor Day but we were absolutely back at it by Thursday!

Kayla with Kayla Vines Photography showed us why she’s the best in the biz when it comes to sports team photography!📸🤯 In addition to the coolest pics, her innovative QR code system protects privacy and she gives 10% back to the sports programs she serves. 👏 But sports is only one facet - she’s also a pro at senior portraits, family pics, weddings, adorable mini-sessions & more!
