Member Benefits
MAY WE INTRODUCE YOU?
Upon joining the Chamber, we will introduce you to the community with a Ribbon Cutting, if we have not already done so. Your business will be featured in the next Chamber newsletter, the E-News Brief, and your products and services highlighted. You will be invited to participate in a Twelve at 12 luncheon, where you will have opportunity to tell long time Chamber members about your business and learn about theirs. We will introduce you to Chamber members and friends at the next Chamber Coffee Break or Sunnyside Breakfast.
MEMBERSHIP DECAL
Your customers and business associates will recognize your community spirit and involvement when they see the familiar and attractive Chamber membership decal in your business location. Your credibility is enhanced in the Williston community. Your customers see when they give their business to you that you are giving back to the community.
BUSINESS REFERRALS
When an inquiry is received, and we receive hundreds every year, we first refer chamber members.
WEBSITE REFERRALS
Hundreds use the Chamber website every day to find what and who they are looking for; we have actual data to back up our bragging rights. Everything you want your customer to know about you can be at their fingertips. Your personal profile page can immediately tell them Who you are, What you offer, and How to reach you. We can link viewers directly to your website.
