Connecting You to the Chamber Community
Networking Tip
"Go to as many events as you can. The more you network, the more your business will be remembered."
Recommendation to Members

Ambassador
Networking Tip
"Look for 1s and 3s. When someone is in a one-on-one conversation it can be more challenging to break in. However, if someone is alone they are likely hoping you’ll say hi. Groups of 3 very often have a “third wheel” who may be looking to gracefully disengage and meet someone new."
Recommendation to Members
"Join a committee that aligns with your membership goals and look for events that let your best-self shine."
Shana Jarvis

Networking Tip
"Keep a pen and note card in your pocket. When you meet someone, write down one interesting thing they tell you. That will help you recall them the next time!"
Recommendation to Members
"Luncheons are great, but only get you a small piece of what the Chamber offers. Serve on a committee, get involved. "

TD Bank
Ambassador
Networking Tip
"Be an open door vs. a locked door. You never know who may walk through."
Recommendation to Members
No need to be the smartest in your tribe. The most successful individuals are often those who surround themselves with a versatile team that compliments each other. You don't have to know/be everything when your team collectively brings different skills to the table.
