Former BNI Members Thank You For Closed Business

In my Tampa, FL US, we talk about the dollar value of a visitor. 

What about the dollar value of former BNI members?

I think it would be an interesting statistic to track.

Many of us continue to do business with past members for one reason or another. 

I think I am somewhere close to half of my BNI business is with former members. 

Right now i just credit it to BNI on the APP. 

If we had a choice for Former BNI Member,  BNI could then talk about the value of past members.

Your thoughts?

  @larry - in the TYFCB dropdown the "BNI" line is traditionally used for this purpose - alumni and BNI generated business, for example past members and BNI personnel that aren't in chapters, like if Dr Misner or the regional office referred you business.  

  If you are instead suggesting that we have the ability to continually recognize by name (though perhaps it would go to the BNI line in the PALMS) that would be a bigger change in the system, though one of course that can be considered for the future.

  Hope this helps!
