Take a moment to review all we have to offer to make sure you are getting the MOST out of your Chamber membership:
The Shelton-Mason County Chamber of Commerce has an annual Business and Economic Profile and Membership Directory that is growing in demand. This directory is distributed in many Chambers and visitor information centers throughout Washington. By joining the Chamber you get your business listed in two places: alphabetically and by category. This opportunity is available only to the members of the Shelton-Mason County Chamber of Commerce.
Your listing on the Chamber website is a benefit of your membership. Using a searchable database, potential customers can find you using keywords, business category or alphabetically. You will have your own web page which is customized by you or you can link to your own website if you prefer.
Our “Hot Deals” feature allows you to advertise specials that you can link to your own website from the Chamber’s site. Statistics show that Chamber of Commerce’s websites are the first site visited by 70% of the public when searching for business or area information. Our site averages over 10,000 hits per month and makes it a great place to market your business.
You can also advertise on our website outside of the Business Directory. Rates vary depending on the location of ad.
The Chamber offers a number of opportunities for a business to enhance its name recognition through event sponsorships. Sponsorships provide a significant presence for a business not only from a marketing perspective, but also to show your community support. Levels of sponsorship vary, as do the types of events. Sponsorships are available for:
