Are You Getting the Most Out of Your Chamber Membership?
To get the most out of your Chamber membership you must take advantage of the
programs and services offered by the Chamber. A member may be disappointed in
their membership and feel they didn’t make a good investment in their chamber
dues. Your satisfaction can depend on your utilization of our services.
Have you sent your link to your business webpage to us to include on our webpage?
Have you included all your business contacts for us to post? Making it easier
for potential customers to find you.
What about our extra promotional opportunities; in addition to your paid
advertising the Chamber offers eblasts of your specials, sales, and events, plus
posting on our Facebook page (you must send us the information by flyer, photo,
or PDF form), just email, mail, or bring the information to us.
How about attending different educational programs the Chamber keeps you
informed of?
Do you attending meetings and listen to scheduled speakers? Have a topic you
would like to see covered at one of our meetings by a speaker? Let us know and
we will try to set that up.
Our monthly Meet & Greet offers an evening opportunity to kick around ideas for
future projects, socialize, hear interesting speakers to keep informed, and of
course have refreshments served by our various hosting sites.
Your membership in the Chamber can be like joining a gym or fitness center, then
not showing up for the sessions or doing the exercises. You don’t take advantage
of the counseling sessions or other services offered by the club and feel you
made a bad investment because you didn’t get the anticipated results. You get
out of your Chamber membership what you put into it.
We hope you are ready to take advantage of our programs and networking
opportunities, which will allow you to feel you have made a good investment in
your Chamber membership this upcoming year.
We look forward to your involvement in the Chamber this year and thank you for
investing in your Chamber, your county, and your community.
