30-60-90 Day Road Map for Success
Simple Steps to Maximize Your Chamber Membership: A 90-Day Roadmap for Success
While this entire guide is designed to help you make the most of your Chamber membership, here are some quick and easy ways to utilize your membership over the next 30/60/90 days. No two members utilize their membership the same way. Let us help you navigate the benefits.
1-30 Days
• Log in to the Members-Only section of our website to find valuable tools, including the dynamic Press Release Tool. • Send out a press release and share your good news with 100+ media contacts maintained in our database. • Attend a Biscuits & Benefits Member Reception to learn more about navigating your member benefits. • Post a coupon or discount on the Chamber’s Coupons web page - easily done in the Members-Only section online. • Provide us with company brochures or business cards to display in both of the
Chamber lobbies. • Proudly display your member window decal and counter sign. According to a study conducted by the Schapiro Group, consumers are 80% more likely to purchase goods or services from businesses who are members of their local Chamber. • Dowload our web-friendly member logo to display on your website. This will be emailed to the primary contact upon joining the Chamber. • Provide us with names and email addresses for your employees so they can receive
Chamber alerts on events, seminars, and Advocacy news. • Review your online directory listing. Is your business information up to date and are you taking full advantage of the features our online directory provides?
31-60 Days
• Attend a Power Connection Breakfast or Lunch and connect with fellow Chamber members in a smaller, more casual networking setting. • Attend Coffee Club and/or Business After Hours and build your business connections. • Participate in a Chamber seminar, webinar and/or workshop -- we offer many educational opportunities at very low cost to members. • Carve out time to read the Chamber’s Current magazine. On the last page you’ll find the Events Calendar to help keep you informed of upcoming events, seminars, and committee meetings. • Meet with a “Chamber Friend” who can help you navigate through your member benefits and introduce you to fellow members at networking events. • Stay informed by connecting with us on social media. Connect with us on
Facebook., Linkedin and Twitter.
61-90 Days
• Consider joining one of the Chamber’s committees or task forces working on important issues. Members can join at any time. • Promote your business through one of our many sponsorship opportunities, all of which offer significant visibility and premium sponsor perks. • Consider applying for membership in the Better Business Council (BBC).
Membership in the BBC gives your business credibility in the consumer’s eyes and identifies your business as one that adheres to a higher standard of doing business.
