Aged care can be difficult to navigate — especially when you don’t know where to start.

If you’re exploring support for yourself or someone you love, come and meet Ali from AJQ Care Advisory .

With more than 20 years of experience across aged care, retirement living and home care, Ali provides independent, practical guidance to help older Australians and their families understand their options and feel more confident about what comes next.

Perhaps you’re unsure how to get started with My Aged Care, what to expect from an assessment, or how funding and fees work. You might be considering a provider or wondering whether existing supports are still the right fit.

Meeting Ali is an opportunity to ask questions, and learn how AJQ Care Advisory could help you navigate the next steps.

You don’t need to have everything worked out — or even know which questions to ask. A conversation is a good place to start.

If you’d like to meet Ali, message us for your reservation to visit, or book here: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/o/bni-australia-73666369023

Independent advice. Practical guidance. Clear next steps.
Confidence starts with clarity.

Stop chasing cold leads and start building warm relationships that actually convert. 📈
Being a member of BNI Gateway has completely transformed how he does business. It gives him a room full of trusted partners who are constantly looking for opportunities to pass my name along to ideal clients.

The best part? We only allow one person per professional category. Once your seat is taken, your competition can't get in.

We are currently looking to fill open seats for incredible local businesses. Want to see how it works for yourself?

𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦, 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗛 𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗔𝗦 & 𝗕𝗘𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗥 𝗢𝗨𝗧𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗦! 🤝

Another fantastic Thursday morning at BNI Gateway, with visitors, valuable business insights and a feature presentation that reminded us just how important communication really is.

👋 𝗔𝗟𝗪𝗔𝗬𝗦 𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗦𝗘𝗘 𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗘𝗦!

We had some enthusiastic visitors join us this morning, bringing fresh conversations, different perspectives and new opportunities to connect.

It was also wonderful to have our Ambassador and Support Director in the room, adding their experience, encouragement and support to another great Gateway morning.

There's something special about a room full of business owners who genuinely want to get to know each other and discover how they can help.

Mitch delivered this week's education session, focusing on sales and giving us some valuable food for thought. Sales is something every business owner deals with, regardless of industry, and taking time to think about how we approach those conversations is always worthwhile.

💬 𝗗𝗢𝗡'𝗧 𝗚𝗘𝗧 𝗠𝗔𝗗. 𝗧𝗔𝗟𝗞 𝗧𝗢 𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗗!
Our Feature Presentation this week came from 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗕𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗢𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴.
With more than 34 years of experience in conflict resolution, Thad brings an extraordinary depth of knowledge to situations many of us would rather avoid: difficult conversations, strained relationships and disputes that seem impossible to resolve.
His journey has taken him from Bermuda to working with the International Labour Organisation and helping shape employment legislation. Today, he uses that experience to support people navigating family mediation, divorce and workplace conflict.
What stands out about Thad's approach is the understanding that behind conflict are often people who are hurting, frustrated or simply feeling unheard.
His message says it beautifully: 𝗜 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗵𝘂𝗿𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹.
Thad also shared a glimpse of his forthcoming book, drawing on his experiences and his 12-step Better Outcomes Method. We're certainly looking forward to seeing it published! 📖

🌟 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦 𝗗𝗢𝗡'𝗧 𝗘𝗡𝗗 𝗔𝗧 𝟴:𝟯𝟬𝗔𝗠!
One of the greatest benefits of BNI is that the relationships and opportunities extend well beyond our weekly meetings. Every conversation is a chance to learn something, strengthen a connection or discover someone you may be able to help. A big thank you to our visitors, members and BNI support team for another welcoming and worthwhile morning.

People you've already met.

People who've started learning about your business.

People whose businesses you understand and whose services you may be able to recommend.

That's a very different starting point from making your first networking introduction in January.

At BNI Gateway, we're growing a community of business owners who want to build something worthwhile together.

We know referrals come from relationships, and relationships take time.

So we're not waiting for the new year to keep building ours.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂?

If you've been thinking about joining a business network, come and experience BNI Gateway for yourself.

Your next great business connection might be waiting in the room.

🎄 𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗬 𝗣𝗘𝗢𝗣𝗟𝗘 𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗕𝗘 𝗧𝗔𝗟𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗕𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗦𝗦 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗖𝗛𝗥𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗠𝗔𝗦?

Think about all the conversations happening over the coming weeks.

Christmas parties. Family gatherings. Catch-ups with friends. End-of-year lunches.

Someone mentions they're renovating.
Someone's looking for a painter.
Someone needs a new commercial cleaner.
Someone's injured and needs your help.

And somewhere in those conversations, someone says:

𝗜 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗼𝗻𝗲.

Wouldn't it be great if that someone was you?

That's why we invest time getting to know each other's businesses at BNI Gateway.

So when opportunities come up in everyday conversations, we know who we can confidently recommend.

We're always keen to meet more great Brisbane business owners.

Why not come along and introduce yourself before the year is out?

𝗪𝗛𝗜𝗟𝗘 𝗬𝗢𝗨’𝗥𝗘 𝗪𝗔𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗝𝗔𝗡𝗨𝗔𝗥𝗬, 𝗦𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗢𝗡𝗘 𝗘𝗟𝗦𝗘 𝗜𝗦 𝗕𝗨𝗜𝗟𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗥𝗘𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦𝗛𝗜𝗣𝗦.

They're meeting other business owners.
Learning about their customers.
Making introductions.
Becoming the person someone thinks of when a friend, colleague or client needs their service.

And by January, those connections have already begun to develop.
That's how referral relationships work.
They don't suddenly appear when you decide you need more business.
They grow through conversations, consistency and trust.

At BNI Gateway, we're bringing together Brisbane business owners who understand the value of investing in relationships before expecting results.

𝗗𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸.

𝗝𝗔𝗡𝗨𝗔𝗥𝗬 𝗜𝗦𝗡’𝗧 𝗔 𝗕𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗦𝗦 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗪𝗧𝗛 𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗚𝗬.

It's a date on the calendar.

Yet every year, business owners put off important decisions because they'll have more time after Christmas.

Maybe they will. 🤷

But the people who start building relationships now could be walking into January with introductions already made, conversations underway and a network beginning to understand their business.

While everyone else is just getting started.

At BNI Gateway, we believe strong business relationships are built through consistency, trust and genuinely helping one another.

And none of that happens overnight.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝘁.

We're welcoming Brisbane business owners who want to be part of something bigger.

𝗗𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗱. 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝘁𝗼 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗱. 💬

When conversations break down, how do you find a way forward?

This Thursday, 29 October, 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 Better Outcomes Coaching takes the spotlight at BNI Gateway to share the experiences that shaped his approach to helping people through conflict.

From growing up in Bermuda to helping draft employment legislation and working with the International Labour Organisation, Thad brings more than 34 years of conflict resolution experience, and a deeply human understanding of what happens when people feel unheard.

Today, his work includes family mediation, divorce coaching and helping workplaces where relationships have become strained and conversations have stopped.

His message is simple: 𝗜 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗵𝘂𝗿𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹.

Thad will also give us a glimpse into his forthcoming book, which brings together his experiences, real stories and his 12-step Better Outcomes Method.

𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴?
Family lawyers, counsellors, therapists, financial advisers and business owners who want to better understand how Thad can support their clients, teams or professional networks. Anyone who is needing help in this area.

You’ll also have the opportunity to meet our welcoming community of local business owners and make some valuable connections.

It's that time of year when business owners start saying, "I'll get onto that in January."

New plans. New opportunities. New connections.

But there's one thing that doesn't wait for the new year.

Your business expenses.

Rent still needs paying. Wages still need covering. Insurance, subscriptions and overheads don't magically disappear because it's Christmas.

So why put building your business on hold?

At BNI Gateway, we're building a network of Brisbane business owners who are committed to helping each other grow.

People who get to know your business, understand the customers you're looking for and actively look for opportunities to connect you with them.

And those relationships take time to develop.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗹 𝗝𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺?

Come and visit BNI Gateway one Thursday morning. Meet the people, experience how our chapter works and see whether it's the right investment for your business.

Good business starts with good relationships—and this week at BNI Gateway gave us plenty of opportunities to build them! 🤝

We welcomed a couple of visitors, along with our Director and Ambassador. It’s always a pleasure to have new faces around the table, hear about different businesses and introduce them to our chapter.

💡 GETTING MORE OUT OF YOUR BNI NETWORK

Corrina delivered this week’s education spot on getting more out of your BNI network. The value of networking grows through the time we invest in understanding one another. Knowing what someone does is a starting point; understanding who they help, the problems they solve and what makes them a good choice helps us make more meaningful introductions. A reminder to keep those conversations going beyond the weekly meeting!

🧼 MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: MITCH FROM TRYCLEANING

Mitch Leach took the presentation spotlight this week, giving us a closer look at TryCleaning and his plans for the future.

Brisbane-owned and operated, TryCleaning provides personalised cleaning for homes and businesses, including regular home cleaning, deep cleans and end-of-lease cleaning. Their approach centres on matching clients with dedicated cleaners and tailoring the service to their space, lifestyle and preferences.
Trust is a big part of inviting someone into your home. TryCleaning’s team members are police-checked, and cleaners complete training and examinations through the TryCleaning Academy before working independently. They arrive with professional products and equipment, and the business backs its services with a 24-hour guarantee. Mitch also shared his ambition to expand across Australia, supported by staff training, strong systems and a network of good businesses to work with.
For busy households, business owners or someone preparing to move, Mitch is a connection worth making.
