Referral Network Groups
Business owners today recognize the value referral network groups have to offer. They have proven to be the optimum way to make new contacts and expand a sphere of influence through the building of relationships. There is no single more effective way of obtaining new clients than through a strong referral group. Chamber membership is a great way to meet new business owners and joining one of our referral groups maximizes the value of your membership. The Chamber has established seven Referral Groups to accommodate our members at different times during the work day. Participants are requested to bring business cards, marketing materials, "asks" and referrals. Meetings provide a great opportunity to hone presentation skills and practice promoting your business! Only one individual per business category is allowed in each group. There is no charge to belong to a Referral Network Group other than an initial $25 fee for materials. Contact Paula Millis at [email protected] for more information.
