I apologise for mentioning the BNI and SBF in the same thread ....there is no comparison.
They (BNI that is... not SBF) seem to be on a recruiting drive. I got a call from an American lady today wanting to know if I was interested in joining any of the local chapters. When I told her that I'd been to several as a guest and it had mostly been a complete waste of time there was long silence before she said "I'll take you off the mailing list, shall I?"

Yes, please....
