Member Insight
Making the most of your Chamber membership
Credibility is the quality or power of inspiring belief and an essential pillar to growing a profitable and enduring business. Your Chamber membership lends measurable credibility to your business.
A national survey* of 2,000 adults reveals that being active in a local chamber of commerce is an effective business strategy because two-thirds of consumers believe that such companies use good business practices, are reputable, care about their customers, and are involved in the community. When consumers know that a small business is a member of the chamber of commerce, they are 49% more likely to think favorably of it and 80% more likely to purchase goods or services from the company in the future. So display your Chamber membership certificate proudly and find ways to increase your involvement to increase the confidence of your customers/clients/guests.
* The study was conducted by The Schapiro Group, an Atlanta-based strategic consulting firm. It was commissioned by the American Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE), in cooperation with the Western Association of Chamber Executives. The study was sponsored by Insperity, a Houston-based company that provides human resources and other business services to more than 100,000 businesses nationwide.
