“Why should I join the Chamber? What’s in it for me?”
As the Membership Development Director, these are questions I hear all the time. I genuinely appreciate when the opportunity presents itself to not only provide an answer to questions like this but expand perspectives to better conceptualize the mission of the Wichita Falls Chamber.
Becoming a member of your local Chamber is so much more than just the value proposition, it is an investment in bettering your community.
The Chamber works for members AND for our community’s growth.
There are so many reasons to join our mission – but, I’ve narrowed it down to 10.
COMMUNITY COMMITMENT
You and your business are vested in the community. When you invest in your Chamber, you further invest in the betterment of your business and community as a whole.
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
We work hard to provide opportunities for you and your team to grow professionally through programs, community groups, and more. One of our most favored programs is our quarterly BOSS (Business Owners Sharing Solutions). We also launched the inaugural Social Media Summit and have more virtual learning opportunities heading your way. See the full list of programs.
COMMUNITY & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
We are continuously pushing to grow the economy and enhance the prosperity and quality of life for all residents. Whether it be through our Economic Development efforts or our Falls Future community-wide efforts, we are always working for a better Wichita Falls.
BUSINESS SUPPORT
The Chamber works to take care of businesses through seminars, workshops, business consultations, business retention and expansion, and so much more. See the full list of programs.
GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS
As one of our community’s key resources, the Chamber maintains a strong relationship with elected officials as well as key city and county decision-makers.
KNOWLEDGE
Tap into the knowledge of your fellow members and chamber staff! With your membership, you have the opportunity to gain greater access to like-minded business professionals, CEO’s, community leaders, and elected officials. Our members-only Facebook Group and Chairman’s Council are huge proponents of how we are able to bring these types of connections to fruition.
PROMOTING YOUR BUSINESS
Chamber members are given the opportunity to market their business through a variety of sponsorships and advertising opportunities such as events, programs, website, and office naming right sponsorships, as well as social media highlights.
CONNECTING OPPORTUNITIES
Connect with Wichita Falls Chamber members to build business relationships, learn more information, and have all the fun at Chamber networking events.
RETURN ON INVESTMENT
You will hear an overwhelmingly positive response when asking a member whether they have received a good return on investment. The rewards realized on the nominal cost of membership might surprise you. Check out our membership directory here.
BUSINESS REFERRALS
As a Chamber, we are LOYAL to our members. As a community resource for locals and visitors, we rely on our membership to aptly provide referrals.
