Think of the advantages for your business by joining your business colleagues and sharing with them the benefits of being a Chamber member. Trends and research points out that consumers are more likely to do business with you if you belong to the Chamber.
The Shapiro Group and Market Street Services say so – 44 percent think favorably, and 63 percent will return if they understand your business supports the Chamber's efforts.
There are several other reasons to join your Chamber. We’ve covered the credibility issue. You also have the opportunity to connect and network with your business community. You can learn from them, and they can help spread the word about what you do, and that helps grow your business plus increase visibility.
We broadcast social media sites, send out newsletters, as well as do regular newspaper and radio features and Chamber of Commerce events. We also promote ribbon cuttings and special events for our members. Chamber members have many opportunities to network with each other during the year, as well as the Chamber working on your government concerns. We stay in touch with and do our best to arrange events with our legislators. Gain customer referrals from the Chamber and other members, and attend events and programs to meet new contacts.
Chamber of Commerce organizations are the heartbeat of local communities and aim to deepen professional relationships by hosting networking events and workshops, promoting local services, and advocating for the business community.
