Well, in a couple of hours I have my first networking event at our local Chamber. I have to do a short speech introducing myself to the other members (gulp). Anyone else here a member of their local Chamber?
I joined my local Chamber the day I began my business. It was the best way to get to know the other businesses in my town. I have worked for the Chamber, the City's Events Committee, and three other local businesses. Good luck.

It went really well, I met some lovely people and also several potential clients who were very interested in my services and promised to get in touch. Fantastic!
I am considering joining our local chamber, and just found this thread. I am weighing the cost of joining with the potential benefits that doing so could possibly provide. Bridie, would you mind sharing whether your networking event led to signing on new clients? Is anyone else a member of their Chamber?
I'm debating on joining the local chamber, myself.
I signed up for a free meeting to meet in our county's famous pub, where most of the meetings take place. It's not a "meeting meeting", but a social call. I figure maybe it would be best to take some things to advertise that way.
