“Many people join a Chamber of Commerce thinking their membership check is a magic pill that will immediately increase their business. It doesn’t work that way. There is a lot to be said for the expression “you reap what you sow.” You get what you give. The key to building business is to get involved – network at mixers, join a committee, be on the board of directors. Let people get to know you and what you do. Create relationships by creating trust. Your actions will determine the outcome.”
