In addition to appearing in the Chamber’s directory, which appears in print and is referenced online by more than a thousand viewers each month, members can take advantage of an array of exclusive business ownership initiatives and advertising opportunities.

List Your Business

When a business owner or consumer looks for a local merchant, they often turn to the Chamber’s website, knowing they will find the best of the best. All members are listed in the searchable directory, and only members may purchase a banner or sidebar ad on the site. Members may also add their logo to the directory results to make their listing stand out to potential customers.
