MarketingChamber members receive marketing exposure through our our online business directory, as well as sponsorships and participation in Chamber events. Chamber members can share press releases on the Chamber website or purchase a mailing list from the Chamber to reach members through direct mail. Studies show that when consumers know that a large business is a member of their local chamber, they are likely to patronize the company more often, to express favorable opinions about the company, to know more about the company, and to buy the company's products. Be sure to display your Chamber membership decal at your business or on your company vehicles, and put the Chamber logo on your website and marketing pieces. Please contact [email protected] or call the Chamber at 831-457-3713 if you would like additional decals or more information about marketing your business through the Chamber.
