Benefits


Small businesses represent the largest segment by number of most local chamber membership rolls. Results in the research study by The Shapiro Group, Inc. and Market Street indicate the impact of local chamber membership on small businesses is very powerful. If a consumer knows a small business is a member of its local chamber, the business enjoys a 44% increase in its consumer favorability rating, a 51 percent increase in consumer awareness, a 57% increase in its local reputation and a 63 percent increase in the likelihood that consumers will patronize the business in the future. Research also indicates that chamber membership stimulates business-to-business commerce in the local community.

Other businesses in town are more likely to do business with you and your company if you are a member of the local chamber. Because a major part of a small business typically comes from business-to-business services, it is essential to maintain a positive standing within the local business community.

We look forward to helping your business grow and prosper. Please contact us today to find out how the Lead Area Chamber of Commerce can work with you, for you!
