3 Reasons to Join Your Local Chamber of Commerce

This is a writing sample from Scripted writer Elizabeth Yetter

Starting your own business is an exciting time, but it can also be overwhelming. There are simply so many things that you need to do, from creating a business plan to building business credit, that you will need to reach out for help. Your local Chamber of Commerce was created to help build and promote the businesses in your community. It is there to help you with nearly all your business needs, and it will refer you to the people and organizations that can give your new venture the best boost available.

Get Extra Help

Most Chambers of Commerce have resources to help you start and build your business. Whether you are starting a sole proprietorship or you are working on building a multi-million dollar company, the Chamber of Commerce can help you set up a business plan and even spending projections. They will provide you with the resources you need to find employees and provide your employees with the best benefits possible.

Make Good Contacts

It never hurts to get to know who is who in your business community. Many times, business owners and business leaders will get together to create community events. This leads to excellent PR and gets your business in front of people who might not know you even exist. Depending on where you are located, your Chamber of Commerce will hold community events throughout the year and will hold special events just for members to get to know more about each other.

Extra Benefits

Many of the larger Chambers of Commerce make health benefits available to their members. Life insurance, disability, and other programs are often widely available. Sometimes discounts are made available to members, as well as loans for business startup, equipment, and property acquisition.
