BNI's referral network generated over 4 million referrals in a single quarter, and its model rests on depth over breadth. Here is the Dream 100 method SME owners can use to make referrals a system, not a hope.
Most owners do not have a strategy problem. They have a doing problem: the plan exists, the whiteboard is full, and the month still disappears into urgent work. Making It Happen is the Simple-Growth program built for that gap. It is a self-paced video masterclass, priced at $297 (one payment, instant access), with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Last updated 10 November 2026.
Disclosure. Simple-Growth sells this program. Everything about its contents and price below comes from the live sales page, read on 9 November 2026. Results vary and are not guaranteed.
The sales page lists six areas: beating procrastination, productivity systems, prioritizing, implementing strategy, building accountability, and getting things done. It includes pre-made templates, a key points summary, real-world examples and Kevin's tips. It is written for ambitious small-business owners in the United States and New Zealand.
Business owners now have more tools than ever. The US Census Bureau's Business Trends and Outlook Survey found that 19.8% of US firms reported using AI as of May 3, 2026, and that less than 20% of firms with four or fewer employees reported using it. The point is not about AI. It is that having access to something and building it into a weekly routine are different things. Implementation is a skill, and it can be learned.
| It may suit you if | You may want something else if |
|---|---|
| You know what to do but keep not doing it | You are not sure what the real constraint is (start with a free call, or Know Your Future at $497 to define destination and roadmap) |
| You run your business solo or with a small team and have no one holding you to account | You need a team-wide operating system with a coach on site |
| You want templates and a repeatable weekly routine | You want live, one-on-one feedback (book coaching instead) |
| You prefer to learn at your own pace for under $300 | You have already used a productivity method for 90 days and it works |
| Option | Typical shape | Best when |
|---|---|---|
| A productivity book | Low cost, self-directed | You are disciplined and need ideas |
| Making It Happen ($297) | Video masterclass, templates, summary, 30-day guarantee | You need a structure for execution |
| Quick Wins ($97) | 15 fast ways to grow sales | You need quick sales ideas first |
| Know Your Future ($497) | Vision, workbook, roadmap | You need direction before speed |
| One-on-one coaching | Scoped to your business | You want accountability and judgment on your own numbers |
If it has not been useful, the page says to ask for a refund within 30 days.
