BNI sets up groups of professionals - and in those groups contain many people providing social media training.

Just a quick note to thank you for the blog workshop you ran for myself and my colleagues. I thought it went brilliantly and certainly hit the objective I had of filling them with confidence and motivation to go away and blog. Everyone really enjoyed it and feedback has been great. The sceptics amongst our group are now bestowing the virtues of blogging and are raring to go - so that shows the power of what we achieved! Thanks again for an excellent workshop. Sam Davies, Marketing Manager Haines Watt
