CREATE VISIBILITY
Attend our Chamber events. This is your Chamber and your participation can only help make
the events better, thus providing more profit for your business and all other Chamber businesses.
The idea is simple: I f you give me business, I will send business your way! I t works every t ime.
Do you have a product or service that you can donate or showcase to other members at no cost? When
businesses see the quality and dependabil ity in your company or organization, they are more l ikely to use
and refer you.
By marketing in our email and social media platforms and handing out promotional i tems and materials,
you can build brand recognition that will be t ied to your name. Once other members see you as a reliable
source and know what you do, they are more than happy to refer you as a preferred vendor.
