As the summer months approach, corresponding with a more reasonable pace of commerce, and the pending publication of our newest Sources directory, I wanted to make you all aware of two valuable rewards of Chamber membership that you may want to utilize for your business.  These rewards are reserved exclusively for our members, and are only a fraction of the many complimentary benefits that cost you nothing aside from your annual dues investment.
 
 
Membership Loyalty Certificates
 
As a gift for joining the Chamber, we will purchase for new members a $25 gift certificate from one of our other loyal members.  The new member selects from any other member who has elected to participate in this loyalty program.  Here are the members who have elected to participate so far:
 

• The Wilson Times
• Barrett’s Printing House
• Hardee’s Furniture Warehouse
• Diversified Opportunities, Inc.
• Wboy Food Group
• Vaughan’s Jewelers
• Five Touch Spa & Salon
• KBR Counseling & Services
• Foundation YMCA
• Uniquely Me Boutique
• Legacy Life Coaching & Consulting

 
This is a great example of how #WilsonWins.  The new member wins by receiving a $25 gift for joining the Chamber.  The loyal member wins by having us purchase a $25 gift from them.  The Chamber wins by earning a new member, and the community wins by keeping gift buying local.
 
Consider adding your business to this list of participating members!  The only requirement is being a loyal member of the Wilson Chamber of Commerce.  To participate, contact Membership Service Manager Rebecca Tew at rtew@wilsonNCchamber.com.
 
 
Member Information Center
 
The wilsonNCchamber.com domain is search engine optimized to be one of the very first results that visitors see when they look for local businesses on the internet.  These visits are almost always directed to our online Business Directory, which only lists businesses that are members of the Chamber.  The directory is populated with all sorts of valuable information that our members provide through our Member Information Center (MIC).
 
All of our members can access the MIC at any time, with a simple login through our website.  Once at the MIC, you can manage your business profile, social media handles, post job vacancies, news announcements and more!  And because this is available all online, you can access the MIC 24 hours a day, wherever you have an internet connection.
 
To see if you have login credentials, or to update the ones you have, contact Marketing & Events Manager Lindsay Perry at marketing@wilsonNCchamber.com.
