Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What’s the biggest difference between traditional networking and NIA?
A: Traditional networking often requires 3–5 hours each week and emphasizes bringing guests. At NIA, the focus is on our members. Each monthly meeting delivers over $2,000 in real business value through coaching, education, and meaningful connections.
Q: How is NIA different from other networking groups?
A: While most groups only allow “one person per industry,” NIA is different in every other way:
-
Monthly meetings (not weekly) → efficient for busy professionals
-
Professional leadership → every group is led by a paid, trained leader
-
Technology-driven tools → CRM, referral tracking, analytics
-
Marketing perks included:
-
Reputation management software (get more 5-star reviews)
-
Two professionally edited videos
-
Google Business Profile consultation
-
Monthly agendas valued at $2K+
-
Q: Can a monthly meeting really work?
A: Yes! NIA has been operating since 2014 with over 300+ groups in 4 countries. Thousands of businesses are thriving with this model and we back it with a written ROI guarantee.
Q: How does the Guaranteed ROI work?
A: Members who:
-
Attend 11 of 12 meetings, and
-
Pass 12 referrals a year
are guaranteed a specific ROI. If you don’t achieve it, your second year is free.
Q: Do I have to pay my membership all at once?
A: No — membership can be paid annually, quarterly, or monthly to fit your budget.
Q: What if I’m already in another networking group?
A: No problem! You can keep both memberships. At NIA you can:
-
Pass referrals (optional)
-
Enjoy all member benefits
-
Expand your network even further
It’s the best of both worlds.
Q: Am I required to recruit members?
A: Never. Unlike traditional networking, NIA takes care of group growth and recruitment. You are our client, your only job is to grow your business.
Q: What if I signed a non-compete with another group?
A: In April 2024, the FTC ruled against non-competes. More importantly, we believe networking should empower growth, not restrict it.
