We are looking to really expand our membership this year, and by doing so, help our communities expand the resources and opportunities available. If you’re a business operating in Wetzel and Tyler counties and surrounding areas, join us. Help strengthen our economic base by increasing revenue for your business and by supporting other business owners. It’s a win-win for everyone!
You might also consider joining other area Chambers of Commerce to expand your reach. Think regionally. Ask yourself if your business can also accommodate customers from outside of our counties. If the answer is “yes” then you should think about joining other Chambers within the Upper Ohio Valley. Participate in some of their events and remember to spread your business cards around! This is another way of attracting a broader range of customers.
