Ideas for using your Chamber membership to grow your business:

• Get to know us. The more our staff, directors and volunteers know about you and your business, the easier it is for us to make referrals to you. This is a really a great tip for members who have been with the chamber a long time because chances are the staff and volunteers have changed since you joined. We do our best to steer those asking questions in the right direction, but our efforts are more effective when we have a good understanding of your business. As the hub for business information in the community, we get inquiries all the time from consumers and potential investors.
• Get to know your fellow Chamber members and put them to work for you. Referrals are an important tool for creating business. Our networking events are opportunities for connecting with other Chamber members. Get to know the people and develop an understanding of their business. Make referrals to other members and your business will be top of mind when their clients are looking for something you can provide.
• Use the Chamber’s Facebook page to make announcements about your business. Tag us in your tweets. Promote your business using our social media contacts. It’s easy. It’s free. It’s a great way to develop online contacts and relationships.
