What We Do
Our group started in December of 2006 with the realization that in comparison to working alone, businesses grow faster and further when working together. However, unlike other business referral groups, MIB was created with the thought that rules didn't make the group, people did.
MIB is based on a proven system of bringing businesses and ultimately people together with a common goal ... to achieve. Our group is one of the fastest growing and evolving business referral groups in Nanaimo and on Vancouver Island. We currently have over twenty core members from a wide variety of professions and are still growing strong.
We all believe that structure in a group is important but so is flexibility. At MIB, we have membership guidelines that suit today's fast-paced and usually very busy business professionals.
If none of our current members are in direct competition with your business, and MIB sounds like a group you would like to be a part of, just ask one of our members to invite you to a meeting.
We welcome new people with fresh ideas who are interested in networking and growing their business with like minded individuals.
Mission Statement
Friends in business growing together with integrity.
Our Newsletter
Every quarter as part of our monthly dues we publish and distribute a newsletter to local Nanaimo businesses. With a distribution of 2500 copies, our newsletter contains articles from different members, as well as each member's business card.
As a member, this is not only a great way to get a little extra information out to the public, but also a great way for our group to get noticed and continue to grow it's membership base.
The newsletter is just another way we are a little different than other business group.

Trade Shows & Events
New in 2012, our group is looking at more creative ways to get our members and their businesses noticed. In March 2012, we are entered as a group into the West Coast Womens show. We will also be looking into more trade shows in the future. Planned for the summer of 2012 is a customer appreciation day. All members of MIB will be able to invite their clients and friends out to meet other members. Another great opportunity to network and meet new potential clients.
