Operators are Standing By

We made enough money this year to get cordless phones for the 2012 Membership Event.

It’s the third and final day of the biennial Conway Chamber Membership Event.  Over the last two days we have added more than 200 new members.  We are now the 3rd largest chamber in Arkansas (approx 1,500 members).  Today is dedicated mainly to gathering checks and celebrating our volunteers. 

For the second time we hired Your Chamber Connection to help us orchestrate the event. They bring a unique model and energy to this event.  However, the backbone of this event is a group of committed volunteers who get their friends and co-workers to join them in some intense and competitive phone banking.

We can’t write any more without thanking the event chairs who worked to make this event successful: Amy Reed, Richard Henley, Lori Ross, Jay Bernard, Pam McDowell, Aaron Beard, Jeff Standridge, David Druey and Preston Scroggin.  These folks all recruited several volunteer salesman to help us beef up Chamber rolls and revenue.  They did more than they know to help us keep the lights on and the copier full of toner.

If I have to give you the reasons why you should join the Chamber, you are obviously new to this website.  I invite you to take a look around and see what we’ve been up to.  There’s no better way to advertise your business, grow our local economy or develop the contacts and resources you need to succeed. You can always call us at 501.327.7788 or email at getsmart@conwayarkansas.org. We will hook you up. Operators are standing by.
