MARKET YOUR BUSINESS WITH THE NET
|
Back again for its third year is the net magazine. This year we have decided to enhance the magazine by adding our Membership Directory for 2020-2021. Our third edition is going to highlight the Chamber’s 60th year anniversary and the history of some of our longest serving members.
We will bring light to the HR talent crisis in Macomb County, including essential industries that need help and highlight resources available for potential employees and employers. We will feature the history of leadership
at the Chamber and highlight some of the organization’s biggest achievements over the years.

The Net magazine will be distributed in late fall of 2020 and used to promote all of 2021.
