A Quick Note from YOUR Board
|
|
The Chamber is going to break from the two-newsletter per week routine during this current situation. In order to get valuable information out as soon as we have it, we will send out news, updates, and information that can help you, our members, as we get it from State and Local organizations. Look here to find specific opportunities in the area that can make your life, or your neighbors, better.
We are an organization made up of many small and medium sized businesses. YOUR Chamber will do what it can to
help each other
promote various products and services that are available here in the 48111. If you have a service or product that can help people get through the next few weeks, let us know and we will get the information out there. For example, today we are promoting one of our Platinum Members,
Angel Food Catering (see below). Their business is going to be hit hard over the coming weeks, and your opportunity to shop is going to be limited. Put those together, and you'll see an
OPPORTUNITY for both ...

The US Chamber of Commerce has a "toolkit" of various items that may be able to help you communicate to YOUR Customers. From what I see, there are no charges for these digital graphics or information. There are also links to more resources and info on this page.
