Your Chamber currently maintains over 50 different programs, events, committees, and services.
Chamber Membership gives your voice volume and gives your talent opportunity.
Networking
Your involvement in the Chamber, whether through committee involvement, attendance at social functions, or periodic community events, is immeasurable. Just one business referral, one new customer, one targeted piece of information from a fellow business associate, can easily pay for one year’s membership in the Chamber of Commerce. With over 200 members, in addition to their employees, the possibilities are endless.
Referrals
When individuals call inquiring about services, products, or certain types of businesses, only Chamber member businesses are referred. The Chamber office receives an average of 2,500 referral calls a year.
Membership Directory
The new Membership Directory will be updated quarterly to allow new members and expanding businesses the opportunity to take advantage of this benefit immediately and provide our members with the most current information available. All member businesses are not only listed alphabetically, but they are also categorized by type(s) of business or services that they represent. These directories are given to all members, community visitors, and are included in relocation packages.
Newsletter
The Chamber produces a monthly digital newsletter to inform the membership of all the current events, programs, and pertinent information. We have an astounding circulation of over 200+ people and we continue to grow. The Chamber Newsletter is just one of the avenues the Chamber utilizes to provide various forms of recognition for our member businesses. Whether in the form of advertisements, acknowledgement for their donations and time, or business announcements it is one of our key communication components.
Internet/Website
The Chamber hosts an all-inclusive website for Montevideo that allows individuals to easily search the Chamber site and still easily maneuver back and forth to other community websites, such as; the City of Montevideo, Economic Development Authority, local businesses, schools, medical facilities, and so on. It connects users to all necessary information regarding our community without ever leaving our website. Only Chamber member businesses will be listed on the Chamber portion of this website and only Chamber member businesses will be offered the opportunity to advertise on this site. This website has an average of 100 hits per day!
