BN4ES English Speaking Networking in Israel

Israel with Love owner, Onnie Schiffmiller, is a long-time member of the English speaking networking group in Israel called Business Networking for English Speakers (BN4ES)

What is BN4ES?

BN4ES is a referral-based business networking group for English-speaking small business owners and freelancers in Israel, with members around the world. Members build relationships, share referrals and support each other’s businesses, through regular meetings and one-on-one connections.

How BN4ES Works

The group meets twice a month for breakfast at Bread & Breakfast café in the Giron Center, Ra’anana. Table Members meet face to face around the table, while Frequent Flyers, who can’t make the early morning meetings, stay connected online and meet members one on one when they’re in Israel.

At each meeting, members present their professions, share their successes and their failures (and why), and practise their speaking style with feedback from the group. There are also guest speakers and workshops. BN4ES keeps one member per profession, and experienced members mentor those who are just starting out. Read how BN4ES works.

A Classic BN4ES Referral

The community website for the 5 towns (Binyamina, Caesarea, Pardess Hanna, Karkur and Zichron Ya’acov) had a post from someone looking for a private tour guide. A fellow BN4ES member recommended Onnie from Israel with Love, and a successful match was made. It’s just one example among hundreds of BN4ES success stories.

Why It Matters When You Visit Israel

Planning a trip, a family celebration or a longer stay in Israel sometimes means needing more than a tour guide. Through BN4ES, I know trusted English-speaking professionals personally: an event planner, a photo booth for your simcha, a fashion stylist and personal shopper, a Chinese medicine specialist, a family law attorney, a financial planner, a web designer and more. Meet the BN4ES members, and if you need someone while you’re here, just ask me and I’ll put you in touch.
