October 4, 2012

You have a very good reason to join your local chamber of commerce: "One study on consumer preferences found that 63% of consumers prefer to shop and do business with chamber members," writes Mike Bowman at MarketingProfs.

But the respectability of chamber membership isn't the only perk: It can also generate a steady flow of leads. Here's how:

Let the chamber promote your news. Your chamber regularly publicizes member news and events through its website and newsletters. Let it know when you have information to share.

Chamber of Commerce has been supporting local businesses for decades and as you said there is a lot of trust and confidence that chamber membership carries. These are extremely valuable tips and techniques to generate leads to the business.
I also wanted to share that we are currently working with our local chamber to create a portal/marketplace where local business can offer products and services and residents and communities can transact online and support their local businesses.
