What an inspiring way to start the day!

This week’s featured speaker was Mahogany Bowers from Blessings In A Bookbag, Inc., who shared the incredible impact their organization is making by providing children with the essentials they need to succeed—both inside and outside the classroom. From school supplies to resources that help students and families thrive, their mission is creating brighter futures one child at a time.

It’s always a privilege to learn about organizations that are making such a meaningful difference in our community. Mahogany’s passion and dedication reminded us that success isn’t just measured by business growth—it’s also measured by the lives we help improve along the way.

Thank you, Mahogany, for sharing your story and for the important work you and the team at Blessings in a Bookbag do every day. We look forward to supporting your mission!

A big thank you to our featured speaker this week, Matt Rippetoe with Truly Nolen Pest Control! 🐜🐭

Matt gave us a great look at how Truly Nolen helps homeowners and businesses protect their properties from everything from everyday pests to more serious infestations. He shared the importance of proactive pest control, early detection, and working with a trusted local professional before small problems become costly ones.

One of the best parts of BNI is learning more about our members’ businesses so we can confidently refer them to our friends, family, clients, and colleagues.

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable pest control expert who genuinely cares about his customers, Matt is someone we’d be happy to recommend.

Another fantastic morning of networking, referrals, and learning from one another!

This week’s featured speaker was Michelle Gutting, owner of The Gutting Group Real Estate, who shared her expertise on today’s real estate market and what it takes to help buyers and sellers navigate the process with confidence. Michelle’s passion for serving her clients and her deep knowledge of the local market were evident throughout her presentation.

One of the best parts of our meetings is getting to know the professionals behind the businesses. It allows us to make stronger, more informed referrals because we understand not just what our members do, but how they genuinely care for the people they serve.

Thank you, Michelle, for an informative and engaging presentation, and thank you to all of our members for another great week of building relationships that help businesses and our community thrive.

If you’re looking to grow your business through meaningful connections and quality referrals, we’d love to have you visit one of our meetings!

Another powerful morning of connections and insight!

Our featured speaker today was Christopher Snider with Southwestern Mutual, who challenged us with a simple but important question:

“If something unexpected happened tomorrow, how does your service help protect or stabilize the situation?”

Christopher shared how thoughtful financial planning isn’t just about growth — it’s about protection, preparedness, and making sure individuals and families are positioned to weather the unexpected with confidence.

It’s conversations like these that remind us why surrounding ourselves with the right professionals matters. When you have trusted experts in your network, you’re not reacting to problems… you’re ready for them.

If you’re looking to connect with people who think beyond today and plan for what’s next, this is where those relationships start.

Another great meeting with an outstanding spotlight on one of our own!

This week, we heard from Ada Lynch with Bueno Cleaning Services, and she reminded us of something simple—but powerful: a clean space isn’t just about appearance, it’s about how you feel in it.

Ada shared how her team goes beyond surface-level cleaning to create environments that are healthier, more comfortable, and ready for whatever your day demands. Whether it’s residential or commercial, her attention to detail and commitment to consistency truly set her apart.

If you know someone who could use a reliable, high-quality cleaning service (or if your own space could use a reset), Ada is absolutely the person to connect with.

Let’s continue supporting the businesses that help keep our homes and workplaces running at their best!

Another great morning of connections, collaboration, and growth at BNI today!

We were excited to officially welcome two new members into the chapter today. It’s always energizing to see our network continue to grow with great professionals who are committed to building relationships and helping others succeed.

A big thank you to our featured speaker, Tyler Lott from PMI Property Management, for sharing valuable insight into the world of property management. Tyler gave us a great look at how his team helps property owners protect their investments, reduce stress, and keep things running smoothly.

Meetings like today are a great reminder of what makes this group special—trusted professionals, meaningful relationships, and a shared commitment to helping each other grow. Here’s to welcoming new faces and creating more opportunities together!

Another great morning of building relationships and doing real business together!

Today’s spotlight was on Travis Sawyer, who gave us an inside look at how We Buy Ugly Houses helps homeowners sell quickly and without the traditional headaches. From distressed properties to unique situations, Travis shared how his team provides practical solutions when people need them most.

It’s always valuable to learn how each member serves the community in a different way — and how we can confidently connect others to the right resource at the right time. That’s where the magic happens.

If you want to surround yourself with professionals who are serious about growth, referrals, and supporting one another — you’re in the right place.
