Word of mouth is the best form of advertising - and certainly the most economical. Networking and relationship building has long proven to be an effective way to increase sales. Our Chamber offers several networking opportunities every month. All offer excellent networking possibilities and many offer great sponsorship opportunities to get your company recognized. Click on the events listed above to learn more about each event.

Monthly Luncheons
Every 3rd Tuesday of the month, we host a General Membership Luncheon at one of our member facilities. The event is catered by a member as well - one in the same if they have the resources. This event offers great ways to build relationships with one hour of open networking and then more focused networking at your table. You can gain notoriety by bringing one of your products, or a certificate for your services and donate it as an attendance prize.
Come "Try Us Out" at the next luncheon.

Ribbon Cutting/Grand Opening
PR is inexpensive advertising and the Chamber will help you host your celebration by contacting city officials and fellow Chamber members urging them to attend and letting the local papers know about your event. The Chamber will provide the ribbon to cut and will take pictures of your special occasion to release to the local papers. This Networking Opportunity is a great way to get the word out about what you do.
