Get your name out there:
You get a listing on our website that lists your company, contact names, a link to your website, your email address, and a short description.
We print 650 quarterly newsletters. These are mailed to all Chamber members and all Marshall Area Business Association members. In addition, newsletters are left in several area locations. Newsletters are also available to view on our website.
You can take advantage of cost-effective advertising in the newsletter. Chamber members can put a full-page flyer in the newsletters for the small fee of $30 (you must provide the flyers). Or a small ad or notice may be added to the newsletter free of charge.
When our office gets requests for member listings or information on suppliers of specific products and services, we always refer our members!
The Annual Business Expo (held jointly with Marshall Area Business Association) is held in the Spring. For a discounted fee, Members can present their business to hundreds of attendees.
Join us for the Quarterly Meet n Greet events. You can meet other local business owners.
