DOCUMENTING YOUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES FOR SEARCH

The purpose of a Chamber of Commerce is to create a community to help promote and prosper local businesses. By managing the local and regional information of the community, the chamber can provide a physical lobby where prospective customers and visitors can find exactly what they are looking for.

However, with the rise of instant information, people are turning to the internet to find what they need. Although Google® manages the world's information, it is often not possible to index the Chamber community because the majority of chamber members are not documented for internet search.

The Chamber solves this problem. The digital lobby gives small, local businesses an edge on the internet. It accomplishes visibility during internet searches for those businesses who would otherwise be lost in the sea of internet information.

PROMOTIONAL TOOLS FOR HELPING YOU GROW YOUR BUSINESS

Membership includes tools like a marketing landing page (traffic catcher page), a mobile catalog, pocket mobile assistant access, and more. Chamber Assistants will build out your marketing program, providing continual development and documentation services at no additional cost.
