Investing in your Business Community for Less than a Dollar a Day

Some individuals are surprised when they hear about the cost of a Chamber membership, as they may be expecting costs similar to other member organizations, lobby firms, professional associations, or consulting firms. While still, others will question the investment and value they receive.

You might be surprised to know that membership in the Chamber can cost less than a $1/day. It's less than a cup of coffee a day and you receive so much more than a caffeine pick-me-up and an energy boost.

Our supporter members, our largest membership category with over 560 businesses invested, is where many businesses start their membership journey, with over 135 members levelling up their membership and close to 100 invested as a start-up business. No matter where a business is in its journey or the size of the business they operate, when they invest in the grassroots reason the Chamber came into existence, they are invested in a unified voice that will take business concerns forward to the different levels of government.

They are investing in an organization created to monitor government and champion growth in our local economy. An investment in the Chamber helps the Chamber to do this work, as our Chamber was built by business for business and still drives our mission forward to be an essential source of information and solutions to strengthen our community as a catalyst for growth, uniting business, driving leadership and fuelling success through our connections, support and influence.

We know much of our work often goes unseen, with countless hours behind the scenes, offering advocacy, meeting with Government representatives and providing various supports to businesses. Add to this over 40 corporate benefits, discounts and services, nearly 70 discounts for both business owners and employees at various businesses around the region, coupled with the #1 plan for health and dental benefits for small business, along with various events where you can connect and build your network as well as to get valuable advice on some of the common business challenges...and you have now leveraged that investment for far greater value than simply $1/day.

We recognize that a membership in any organization is a decision, and we want to make that decision easier. You can pick and choose what you find the most value in, even if it's just a listening ear or business-to-business connections that could help you out. We monitor news, funding and information so you don't have to and we have the best interest of our community at heart and when you don't have time to advocate for your business or for the needs of the business community, we got you.

We take that time so you don't have to...and we know your time is more valuable than $1/day and we hope you feel that ours is too - we want to make sure that when you make that decision to invest in us, you know what you are investing in and that you see and feel the value you receive.?
