Sugar Grove Chamber of Commerce
The Benefits of Membership

BUSINESS INFLUENCE
With 160+ members (and we're still growing), the Chamber speaks with a solid, credible voice for business, industry and other professionals. The Chamber is heard through a number of different venues: our website (www.sugargrovechamber.org) with links to all members’ websites or email addresses; our newsletter, Sugar Grove Chamber View;  various local newspaper ads; monthly luncheons with guest speakers; Corn Boil festivities; Farmers Market advertising; and After-Hours business events.

BUSINESS DIRECTORY
The directory lists all the members alphabetically and categorically. A hard copy listing is distributed to all members, and the online directory is available to all Chamber site visitors. We use the directory to answer numerous questions about the businesses who are members of the Chamber.

BUSINESS REFERRALS
The Chamber always recommends members' products and services first in response to daily phone calls and written inquiries.

CHAMBER INVOLVEMENT OPPORTUNITIES
All members have the opportunity to participate in a variety of committees and special task groups which set the agenda for finding solutions to problems and concerns of the business community.

LEADS GROUPS
Leads Group is a proactive members group, consisting of non-competing businesses. These high energy, business minded people meet twice a month to exchange business leads and referrals. There is only one spot available for each particular type of business within each leads group. Therefore members of the group are not competing for business from each other. They are hoping to gain business from each other.

NETWORKING
Our members receive numerous business contacts with every membership luncheon, breakfast, leads group meeting and After-Hours events. These activities are an effective means of expanding our membership network.

ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITIES
Reach potential clients via Sugar Grove Chamber of Commerce and Industry publications; e.g. this web site, newsletters, brochures, expos.

FREE WEBSITE LISTING, EMAIL BLAST AND URL LINK
The Chamber website at www.sugargrovechamber.org is a valuable asset to all members, providing links and direct information about their business on the web. The site also provides the viewer updates and information on the happenings within the Chamber.

PARTICIPATION OPPORTUNITIES
Seven committees offer the opportunity to serve in an area of your expertise and indirectly promote your business through the development of goodwill.

CALENDAR OF COMMUNITY EVENTS
Information for local businesses and community associations is important for planning meetings and events for your business. This alleviates conflict of business events.

The Chamber meets at noon, on the second Thursday of each month.
