HERE IS WHY IT IS CRITICAL TO EXPAND YOUR LOBBY

We all know that Google manages the world's information and that anyone can always find what they are looking for.  The problem today for Chambers of Commerce is that most results are coming from outside the area, so it takes potential revenue away from the Chamber's community.
For hundreds of years the Chamber has been there to promote their communities with education and events, acting as the community receptionist, and even hosting a lobby packed with valuable local information. But today, people are using all kinds of devices and voice searches to learn about communities. Because of this, the Chamber must be sure that it publishes a vast amount of data on every business and other search results in order to offer many more local answers (i.e. things-to-do).
The problem in publishing an entire community is that most Chambers have a limited budget. Even those who have added technology find out that 90+ percent of their members will never log in. The ones that do will typically only offer a paragraph of information, at most. Every technology we've witnessed for Chambers of Commerce have not succeeded with self-service member tools in any meaningful ways. Even the self-service systems we've delivered had to be upgraded to this program.

Fortunately Chamber Nation now offers a terrific solution that nearly every Chamber of Commerce can easily afford. It's called Membership Compass, which works with ALL MEMBERSHIP MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS, and delivers an incredible result that is also very easy to implement. ​

MANAGE YOUR CHAMBER WITH BETTER RESULTS

TRACK ALL BUSINESSES,NOT ONLY MEMBER BUSINESSES

By managing ALL non-member businesses within your same membership database, you will be able to power a community-wide business directory delivered away from the Chamber website but bringing more visitors to full Chamber membership.

BILL FOR MEMBERSHIP AND PLAN TO ADD MORE

Use the same system for membership billing while at the same time move your non-members toward membership by providing them with automated membership proposals, useful marketing statistics, value added services, and their own Chamber Assistant to do their marketing documentation.

SHARE UNMATCHED SEARCH RESULTS WITH NON-MEMBERS

Let's face it there are many businesses out there that simply say that the Chamber really didn't help their business. Nothing is better than to be able to show them in black and white that the Chamber is actually helping their business prosper.

AUTOMATE NEW MEMBER ONBOARDING AND ALL EXISTING MEMBER DOCUMENTATION

When you use Chamber Nation along with the Membership Compass program it will automatically notify our team of member assistants to begin the member onboarding process. If you use another membership management system, you can use our ADD YOUR MEMBER page to handle this process or have your provider system email us all new member notifications to our central help desk.

DRAMATICALLY EXPAND THE ABILITY FOR MEMBERS TO MARKET THEIR BUSINESSES

Aside from adding much more content to the Chamber of Commerce local advertising network, each member will be assigned a Chamber Assistant that will document and continue to update their marketing program at NO CHARGE. Every member qualifies for this service and we will not upsell them anything. All you are going to hear are things like "wow, what a great service!" and "I'm pleased."

INCORPORATES AN AUTOMATED SYNDICATED CALENDAR FOR ALL COMMUNITY GROUPS

Chamber Nation was built as a collaborative with input from dozens of Chamber Executives from all over the country. One of those outcomes came in the form of building a much better calendar for Chambers than exists anywhere else today. It is called a syndicated calendar and all of the organizations in your community add it to their own website to show only their own events.  But then, it also rolls up to a community-wide calendar that dramatically improves the ability of the Chamber to promote the community. This entire platform was built from the ground up to promote communities, not simply to only manage membership records,,,, that part is easy.

ADVANCED BUSINESS REFERRAL SYSTEM FOR CHAMBER STAFF AND SELF-SERVICE

Have you heard of Angie's List, or Amazon Services? Well, we have and think that the Chamber of Commerce should run their own local services request center. Our program incorporates an outstanding way for you to track and notify members of all Chamber referrals and provide a self-service website where the public can easily request proposals and information from local member businesses. Our platform was created to dramatically improve the value and services provided to members of Chambers of Commerce throughout the country. It is OK if you have another membership management system, because you can start with Membership Compass and later decide (if ever) you would like us to also help manage your Chamber.
