Hi, Braith. Welcome. How are you today. Braith Bamkin: I am fantastic Donna, thank you very much for inviting me on to said this with you and your viewers. Donna Hanson: Awesome. So, let's just get stuck striding what my first question shifting from corporate to BNI and having BNI on many regions why the move? Braith Bamkin: Do you mind if I take you back in time back to the 80s and I was around I’m not sure you were around my very first real job was working in commercial textiles and I remember in the very first week of working in that company, the woman that had started this business. Now we're driving across the Sydney Harbour Bridge as you do. And I was looking up at the good as and she said to me, Braith, if you're going to be successful in this business, you need to know how to network. So, this is the 80s is I was young, I knew everything. Of course, I knew nothing, and I had no idea what that word meant so we went into town. We did our business and on the way, back. I was looking at the girl as again on the Harbour Bridge. And I said, Judy. I have no idea what networking is can you explain what you mean by that. And over the next two years, she taught me what networking was and how you could build your business and how you can become successful through networking and it was a lesson that I took with me. Well, the rest of my time in that business. And as I moved through corporate and one thing led to another and my very last job, I was working in the mattress business. I was a national sales and marketing manager. We had franchisees and I think you've got a network, you've got a network. And one of them said to me, where are you doing it. And I went, you know, I've given up something I know works well. In fact, I had actually started a networking group here in Melbourne about 20 years ago so nothing. Nothing to do with being I was a not for profit. And it's still going. And you know, I went back into it and somebody invited me to obey and I'm at and the rest, as they say, is history. Donna Hanson: Wow, you know, sometimes you dip your toe into the water on something and then you decide that. That's for you. Braith Bamkin: Yeah. Well, I mean, my father said to me when I was probably in my 30s.
