I'm thinking of joining the chamber of commerce. Is it wasted money or has anyone had good results at getting jobs or referrals by being a member. thanks! Ed
I am a member of my local Chamber and used to go to those meetings and luncheons, you will meet many people and depending on what your specialty is it can be a plus.
We are members of our local Chamber of Commerce and we also clean our Chamber's building and clean the windows quarterly. So for us it is a definite plus....but I also think it is good for a number of reasons. 1. You are supporting your Chamber who in turn is supporting the business community to make it stronger, 2. Many people and other Chamber members feel comfortable in working with a company that is also a Chamber member, shows that you are serious and not a fly-by-night, 3. Tax write off, 4. The monthly meetings can be fun and a great way to meet other business people, 5. Advertising in the Chamber directory. Our dues are $165.00 per year.
