Dear Friends,
The Mount Horeb Area Chamber of Commerce is composed of two full-time and one part-time staff members. We are each passionate about serving the community and helping our members be successful to the best of our ability.
In the pasIn the past two years, the Mount Horeb Area Chamber of Commerce has taken a deep dive into operating the organization on a more strate-gic level. This has included taking a look at all of the Chamber activities, processes, and back office procedures. Many things have been changed or revamped. The result has been a more efficient and well-structured chamber, and growth. We had over 30 new members join the Chamber family in 2019 and currently have over 250 active membemembers. We are excited to also experience a growing social media presence which allows us to spread the word of Mount Horeb even farther than the boundaries of our village.
The growth that we have seen is not taken lightly. We see each one of our members as valuable partners in assisting in the economic well-be-ing of our community. Whether a small business, or a large corporation, we look forward to working with everyone to help make a collective impact in your businesses and in the community as a whole.
With three staff members, our volunteers and ambassadors, and the efficiencies we have created internally, we are positioned to meet the needs of our members better than ever. The benefits that we are able to offer our members continue to expand and we are constantly looking for ways to maintain relevancy in an ever-changing world.
WWe look forward to continuing to partner with you in 2020 and beyond. If we can brainstorm with you, or if you need help with anything at all, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at any time.
