Frequently Asked Questions
Why Should I Join The Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce?
We are here working on behalf of you and your business every day! We actively support the business community by connecting members to valuable business resources; acting as the legislative voice for the business community; fostering relationships that benefit the community; and promoting community pride.
"We have been a member of The Chamber for over 20 years and continue to realize huge benefits through the networking opportunities provided. These benefits have come in sales and referrals of our products and also in establishing relationships with local vendors that we have been able to buy products and services from. The Chamber has also helped instill a sense of pride and community spirit in our employees that Montgomery County is a great place to live and work."
Andy Heck, President of Alpin Haus
What does it cost?
The average annual membership investment is $250.00, less than the average cup of coffee each day. Can you afford not to join?
What does The Chamber do for me?
The Chamber advocates for and works with our members to advance the economic and community interests of our area. Every day we are a promotional agency that spotlights business members; an advertising agency that promotes Montgomery County; legislative representatives at the local, state, and national levels of government, an information bureau/resource center; an organization for professional development, a facilitator for networking events; and a network of experts and resources. As a conduit of information, we are often the gateway into Montgomery County.
Where do you get your funding?
The Chamber generates its revenue from membership investment, programming, and partnership programs. We do not typically receive operational money from the state, county, or other governmental agencies. We do, however, administer specific grants.
