2020 Chamber EDC Annual Report by Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC

2020

ANNUAL REPORT

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

After a successful merger of the Bismarck-Mandan Chamber of Commerce and the Bismarck-Mandan Development Association created the Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC, what followed was a year full of ‘firsts.’ Our first Annual Dinner as the Chamber EDC, our first Membership Mixer as the Chamber EDC and now our first Chamber EDC Annual Report! To be clear, this first Chamber EDC Annual Report isn’t meant to be an accounting or description of every single thing that we accomplished. Rather, it’s intended to recognize our supporters and highlight a few of the great accomplishments that we’ve been able to achieve with your support. I say “your support” because without our members we can’t advocate for business, lead economic development or do any of the other things that help keep our community growing. To earn that support, we have to illustrate that we’ve been successful in our efforts and I truly think you’ll see that success highlighted in the pages to come.

Brian Ritter, Chamber EDC President

Another one of the ‘firsts’ that we experienced in 2019 was the development of the very first Chamber EDC Strategic Plan, which quantifies the goals, objectives and action items which will guide our efforts for the next three years. What it also does is quantify exactly what your membership dollars go to support and that’s critical because that’s what our members expect. Gone are the days when a business would join the chamber or the economic development corporation simply because it was expected or the right thing to do. No, you deserve to know exactly what your membership supports and what we’re doing on your behalf. The Chamber EDC’s Strategic Plan does just that and we’re incredibly proud of that. While developing the strategic plan, we also developed a new mission statement that reads, “Advocating for business. Fostering economic growth. Shaping the future of our community.” We see that mission statement and read it as 1 +1 = 2. If we effectively advocate for business and successfully foster economic growth then we will in fact shape the future of our community. That’s what your membership dollar goes to support and in this first Chamber EDC Annual Report, you’ll see just how we’re doing it. Thank you for your continued support of the Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC!

Brian Ritter, President

YEAR IN REVIEW Welcome to the first Annual Report of the Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC! 2019 was the first full year of the merged Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC.

On January 1, the Bismarck-Mandan Development Association and the Bismarck-Mandan Chamber of Commerce merged officially. Having completed one full year, the Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC, the organization is taking stock in it Annual Report

MERGER

The goal of merging the BMDA and Chamber of Commerce was to create a bigger, better, stronger organization. Brian Ritter, President of the Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC, said workforce development is the No. 1 issue facing Bismarck-Mandan businesses. Before the merger, BMDA and Chamber of Commerce each had separate efforts to address workforce development. Now, the Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC works from a broader base to advocate for the Bismarck-Mandan community. The same goes for economic development as well legislative advocacy at the local, state, and federal levels. Ritter and the Chamber EDC board of directors are nearing completion of the first strategic plan of the merged Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC. The staff and board of directors created four goals for the strategic plan: No. 1 Serve as an advocate for business; No. 2 Position Bismarck-Mandan as a destination for business and talent; No. 3 Recruit and retain Chamber EDC members; No. 4 Operational excellence. As the staffs from BMDA and Chamber of Commerce were integrated, two new positions were also created. Prior to the merger, Jaime Sabot was hired in October 2018 as Workforce Development Coordinator. Her position focuses on the No. 1 issue facing Bismarck-Mandan businesses: workforce development. Aasta Eggert was recently hired as an Economic Development Marketing Specialist. This position will focus on marketing economic development in the Bismarck-Mandan community.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

The Bismarck-Mandan community has an average 2 percent unemployment rate and has approximately 2,500 jobs open each month. Businesses need to fill those jobs. The Make Your Mark campaign is a talent attraction campaign for workforce recruitment. Make Your Mark is an online social media campaign. The Chamber EDC develops content that gets posted to our social media platforms. It is used in search engine optimization and Google ad words. In the past, the Make Your Mark campaign targeted specific industries such as engineering, nursing, skilled trades, informational technology, and commercial drivers. Now, the campaign is promoting the Bismarck-Mandan community. Vice President Nathan Schneider refers to it as targeting the “BLT’s.” Those who were born here, lived here, or have ties here. The Chamber EDC also focuses on students in order to recruit and retain workforce to our community. Each year the Chamber EDC hosts Job Shadow Week for high school and college students. This is a weeklong opportunity in February for students to explore career fields of interest, find out what classes they may need for an upcoming quarter or semester so they can be on track for that career field. Job shadowing assists the students and employers in making those needed connections for possible later internship opportunities and hopefully down the road employment. The objective is workforce development — to retain workforce, highlight career and employment opportunities and to support relationships with the schools. In addition to targeting students, Sabot said the Chamber EDC tries to “influence the influencers.” The influencers are parents, teachers, and school counselors who can help a student decide on their career path. E² Educator Experience is a weeklong continuing education program for teachers and counselors. Through the E² program, businesses work to inform educators about various industries and career opportunities available in the area. The half-day topics included skilled trades; energy and engineering; medical and alternative medicine; entrepreneurship; parks and recreation; IT and cybersecurity; agriculture; and the 21st Century workplace.

YEAR IN REVIEW LEGISLATIVE ADVOCACY

While working with its members to prepare for the 2019 legislative session, the Chamber EDC determined four legislative priorities: infrastructure; workforce; behavioral health and health care; and general business. The Chamber EDC tracked multiple bills related to workforce issues, such as House Bill 1171. HB 1171 resulted in the ND Career Builders scholarship and loan repayment program. ND Career Builders is targeted at emerging occupations and areas of high need in workforce. The ND Career Builders program is led by the North Dakota University System. The scholarships and loan repayment are based on a private-public partnership. House Bill 1474 fell under the category of infrastructure and sought to give political subdivisions the ability to seek voter approval of what’s been termed as a street utility tax; an alternative to special assessments. Ultimately, the bill was passed as a study amendment. The legislature’s Interim Taxation Committee is studying the issue. The Chamber EDC and City of Bismarck are actively working with the interim taxation committee on that study.

EVENTS & PROGRAMMING

85 percent of Chamber EDC members are businesses with 1-20 employees. 54 percent of Chamber EDC members are businesses with 1-10 employees. In 2019, the Chamber EDC focused multiple events on small business members. The Business Development Series — formerly Professional Development Series — has a strong focus on small businesses. Monthly Membership Mixers are another great way for small businesses to engage. They are designed to be able to have businesspeople in a casual atmosphere come together and network with other businesses. Each mixer in a different area business. Chamber EDC events don’t only focus on businesses. For the third year, the Chamber EDC brought Lemonade Day to the Bismarck-Mandan community. Lemonade Day is a national curriculum that teaches young entrepreneurs how to start a business through the model of setting up a lemonade stand. Over 650 future entrepreneurs took part in the 2019 program, generating an average revenue of $230 each. In 2020, Ritter said the top issue for the Chamber EDC will be implementing the new strategic plan. 2020 will also be an important year politically as the communities hold elections in June and November, and the state prepares for a Legislative Session in 2021.
