I am thinking about joining my local chamber but it is a little costly. I believe that despite the cost, it will be worth it in the end.

My brother works for an upscale catering business that travels thru out NJ, NY, CT areas and the clients are very corporate, so my dad gave me the idea of my brother posting or handing my business cards to his clients... and I can post their info on my website for my clients... the great barter system lol...
