Member of the Week

MEMBER OF THE WEEK WORKING FOR YOU

The Chamber is always looking for ways to promote its Members. In 2021, a new partnership between the Chamber and The Owensboro Times formed to promote one Member business, organization, or individual each week of the year. As Member of the Week, the business receives a featured article and photo on The Owensboro Times website. The article is shared across all Chamber communications, including the weekly email newsletter, social media, and website. The business logo is also featured as the promo graphic on the Chamber website during that week.

“The Chamber’s Member of the Week promotion is a special way we spotlight our Members and the great things they are doing in our community,” said Chamber Vice President Shelly Nichols. “Through this collaboration with The Owensboro Times, we get to reach an even larger audience while promoting the Member business/organization and highlighting their individual story. I am so happy we can deliver this membership benefit for our Members.”

Members can sign up to be Member of the Week by contacting Shelly Nichols at shelly@owensboro.com or (270) 926-1860. “Obviously, the Chamber is an excellent resource for information and networking, but what I love most is that they are cheerleaders for local businesses! As a new business, that support and encouragement has been invaluable!”

“Being part of the Greater Owensboro Chamber of Commerce has been an invaluable component of my business’s success. The networking and support provided by the Chamber helped 54 Pizza Express build its foundation early on, but in recent months, the support and advice provided by the Chamber has been essential in keeping the doors open.”

CINDY TONG, 54 PIZZA EXPRESS “Being recognized as Chamber Member of the Week is just another great benefit the Chamber offers. We are always looking for ways to get our name out there and to have the Chamber support its membership like it does is amazing. We operate in several regional markets, and no one does a better job of adding value to their membership than the Greater

Owensboro Chamber of Commerce. We are happy to be a part of an organization that strives to make local businesses the best they can be.”

“We noticed an immediate impact when featured as the Chamber Member of the Week. Our first call that Monday morning was from a family who had not heard of us, but needed care for an aging parent. He said it was serendipitous to learn about Timesavers from the story in the Owensboro Times. The featured story was also shared and tagged by encouraging friends and colleagues on social media. We really appreciated the opportunity to participate and help increase awareness of our local small business.”
