New Year's Resolutions for 2018

1/11/2018

 
Picture
My New Year’s resolution was to lose 15 pounds last year… Only 20 to go!
Turning the page on the calendar year is always a good opportunity to take stock of where you’ve been and where you are going.

The Chamber is no different. Under the banner of “Strengthening Business” there are five key reasons to belong to the Peterborough Chamber:
  1. #TeamPtbo: Chamber membership is respected by the community. It means that you adhere to our code of conduct “Proudly doing business with integrity”. It means that you are part of the collective strength of all Chamber members and our other community partners.
  2. Promoting Your Business: Using the Chambers website, social media platforms, trade shows and events, and our network of over 900 members, means that we can connect you to customers and colleagues to help you grow your business.
  3. Saving you Money and Protecting your Business:  As a member of the Chamber, you have access to programs designed to save your business time and money, provide training, and protect you and your employees.
  4. Lobbying and Advocating for your Business: One of the key roles of the Chamber of Commerce is to lobby all three levels of Government on behalf of the business community – to Strengthen Business.
  5. Informing Your Business. We keep you informed of any proposed or legislative changes that can impact your business, and we help you gain a competitive edge with exclusive training, speakers, curated information and leadership opportunities.

2017 was a challenging year for business, and it’s likely that this year will be no different with everything from increased costs to increased governance to test the small business person.

Thus, on behalf of our Board of Directors and the Chamber staff, here is what we resolve for 2018:
  1. Continue to focus on our fundamental value proposition – the strengthening of our local business community.
  2. Continue to work closely with city, county, provincial and federal governments, as well as other community based entities and organizations to build a vibrant and prosperous business environment.
  3. Promote the importance of a healthy business community through initiatives such as our #LoveLocalPtbo program, and by actively creating business opportunities by connecting, informing, leveraging and collaborating with our members.
  4. Provide relevant education and networking opportunities for our members through programming such as PBX, the Power Hour, Next Level, the Leaders Lunch series and more.
  5. Continue to provide an industry leading online presence through our website, social media and traditional media channels to showcase both our members and our community.
  6. Amplify our members both online and on the street with effective marketing tools.
  7. Offer member exclusive affinity programs such as merchant services, group insurance, free social media training, SEO analysis, HR support, and more.
If you are interested in growing your business, and helping to strengthen the local business community, we would love to have you as a member of the Peterborough Chamber of Commerce.

Just visit peterboroughchamber.ca and follow the links to join, or give Stuart Harrison a call at 705-748-9771 ext 202 and he’ll get you connected.
