Raza Hussain, the owner of Al Barq Auto Repairing and Turning, since joining BNI Gems in July 2023, has become the biggest advocate of proactive networking. Raza has demonstrated the profound impact of meaningful connections and networking has driven incredible success for his business.
From the outset, Raza immersed himself in the BNI community, participating in numerous one-to-one meetings with fellow chapter members and extending his efforts to cross-chapter meetings. Recognizing the vast potential of BNI, Raza actively sought out connections that could benefit his business. He utilized the BNI Connect App to its fullest potential, connecting with other members and businesses within the automotive industry, including tire trading companies, spare parts suppliers, and garages from various chapters. Many of these businesses were conveniently located near his garage, facilitating the establishment of mutually beneficial collaborations.
Raza’s approach to networking embodied the BNI principle of “Givers Gain.” He consistently referred business to other BNI members and, in return, received referrals that significantly boosted his customer base. This reciprocal relationship fostered a sense of community and translated into tangible business growth.
In less than a year, Raza’s dedication to networking within BNI bore impressive results. His efforts resulted in over 200 new loyal customers and a revenue increase exceeding AED 400k. The collaborations and referrals facilitated by BNI opened doors to opportunities that Raza had previously thought unattainable.
Raza’s success story is a testament to the power of strategic networking and collaboration within BNI. His journey underscores the importance of active participation and the willingness to invest time and effort into building meaningful connections. By embracing the resources and support offered by BNI, Raza Hussain transformed Al Barq Auto Repairing and Turning into a thriving business.
