How are professional standards maintained?

The primary purpose of being a member of Referral Network is to give and receive qualified business tips or leads. The Referral Master regularly ensures that the quality of the tips being exchanged is of real value and meet professional criteria.

Potential new members come to a meeting and are permitted to give brief presentations about their product or service. The club inspector meets with the application at their business. An inspection is done of the premises and information on the application is verified. At the next meeting, the current membership votes on the acceptance of the prospective member.

Your first meeting

Come prepared to introduce yourself to our chapter members. You will have the opportunity to give a one minute commercial about your business and to describe the type of clients you need. Please bring approximately 50 business cards.
