BNI Impact Chapter Speaker Spotlight

Family-owned since 1947, they carry all types of vehicles โ€” from a 1929 Ford Model A to a 2024 Tesla โ€” and if they donโ€™t have it, theyโ€™ll find it. Joshua also shared the new Chip Wynn Classics rental line, perfect for weddings, proms, and events, starting at $499. If you or someone you know is in the market for a vehicle, Joshua is your guy. Reach him at [email protected] or 270-564-4510.

One big takeaway: get your water heater flushed once a year, especially tankless units. It extends the life of the equipment and keeps everything running clean. Josh and his crew cover a wide area and they back their work. Reach BPS at 270-554-4952.

That is one of the best parts of BNI. We get to learn more about the people behind the businesses, understand what they do, and know who to call when someone needs a trusted local professional.

Great job, Joshua and Josh!

Doug shared about Kentucky Farm Bureau and the importance of having a local, trusted insurance professional who understands the needs of Kentucky families, farms, businesses, homes, vehicles, and more. Kentucky Farm Bureau has been serving Kentuckians since 1943, has agents in all 120 counties, and continues to be known for hometown service and local commitment.

Jacob shared about United Systems, a Benton, Kentucky-based company that provides software development, business continuity, wireless solutions, utility management tools, smart metering, and managed IT services. United Systems helps organizations operate more efficiently, reduce pain points, and better serve their customers.

One of the best parts of BNI is getting to know the people behind the businesses โ€” not just what they do, but how they serve. Both Doug and Jacob are great examples of professionals who bring knowledge, care, and commitment to their work.

Thank you, Doug and Jacob, for taking the time to educate our chapter and share more about the work you do in our community.

At ๐๐๐ˆ ๐ˆ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐š๐œ๐ญ, we are more than just a networking group โ€” we are a team of local business professionals committed to building relationships, supporting one another, and helping each other grow.

๐Ÿค What a way to wrap up before Spring Break โ€” BNI Impact Chapter brought the energy!

We had two incredible guests join us for our last meeting before break, and they made it one to remember!

First up โ€” Chris Hill with IHM Used Parts, your go-to source for high-quality, low-cost heavy equipment parts for Caterpillar and Komatsu machines. Think of them as the NAPA auto parts store meets salvage yard โ€” but for heavy iron! If youโ€™ve got excavators, graders, skid steers, track loaders, or wheel loaders in your operation, Chris can save you 30โ€“70% off new part costs. He also helps folks dispose of surplus and damaged machines. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฆบ (And just so weโ€™re clear โ€” NO tractors. NO combines. Heavy equipment only!) ๐Ÿ˜„

Then Bryon Harlan with Wilsonโ€™s Office Solutions absolutely STOLE THE SHOW! ๐ŸŽ‰ Bryon brought a full spread of promotional products for us to see and feel firsthand โ€” rubber shot glasses, USB chargers, floor mats, T-shirts, hatsโ€ฆ if you can dream it, Bryon can put your logo on it! If youโ€™re looking to get your brand in front of people in a big way, Bryon is your guy. ๐Ÿ‘•๐Ÿงข

Visitors are ALWAYS welcome โ€” come see why Givers Gain! ๐Ÿ‘Š

๐Ÿ”ฅ Great BNI Meeting Last Week ๐Ÿ”ฅ

We had two strong presentations from local professionals who are doing things the right way ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ’„ Carmela Ballard โ€“ Mary Kay
Carmela shared more than just skincareโ€”she gave us a glimpse into her big, beautiful family and life on their farm. It was a great reminder that what she does is rooted in relationships, confidence, and helping people. From skincare routines to personalized product recommendations, she focuses on helping you truly love the skin youโ€™re in.

๐Ÿ‘‰ If you know someone looking to improve their skincare or boost their confidenceโ€”Carmela is a great connection.

๐ŸŒฑ Chance Futrell โ€“ Housman Partners Real Estate
Chance delivered a great presentation on farm and land real estateโ€”breaking down what actually determines value and what buyers need to look for. From access and utilities to income potential and due diligence, he made it clear thereโ€™s a lot more to land than just acreage.

๐Ÿ‘‰ If you hear:
โ€ข โ€œIโ€™m thinking about buying landโ€
โ€ข โ€œIโ€™ve got property I want to sellโ€
โ€ข โ€œI need help understanding land valueโ€

Thatโ€™s a Chance referral all day.

โธป

๐Ÿ’ฅ Thatโ€™s what BNI is all aboutโ€”building relationships and connecting the right people at the right time.

Proud to be part of a group that truly looks out for each other and our community.
