The Chamber has a second LEADS GROUP!
We currently have a Leads Group that meets the 1st & 3rd Tuesday each month to exchange business leads, build relationships, and share testimonials, business tips, solutions, etc. The second group will be meeting the 1st & 3rd Thursday each month. This opportunity is open to all representatives of Chamber-member businesses, for only $20 per quarter. Each group consists of non-competing businesses, meaning that only one representative per business category (insurance, real estate, etc.) may be in the group. Typically, the group votes to accept new members; however, applications for the new group will be accepted on a first-come-first-served basis and at the discretion of the Leads Group Committee (Angie Gable-Chair, Cheryl Stocke, Anita Lindeman, Krista Schrader). The first meeting of the second group is scheduled for May 7th, 8am at the Chamber office. For those of you that have already submitted an application, be on the lookout for an email reminder with more information from your group facilitator early next week. If you are interested in joining, or would like more information, check out our Leads Group Page, contact the Chamber or one of our Leads Group Committee members. |
