Chamber membership matters to customers! A new national study reveals that
membership in a local chamber of commerce can significantly boost a business
image among customers, as well as among other businesses. In a survey (Sponsored
by IBM, Administaff, Jim Blasingame and AskJim.biz) of 2000 U.S. adults, The
Schapiro Group, a strategic consulting firm, found positive perceptions of
chamber members in a number of areas, including overall favorability, customer
awareness and reputation, and likelihood of future patronage. The study found
that customers are:
- 63% more likely to purchase goods and services from a company that is a chamber
member; and
- 57% more likely to think positively of its local reputation.
