PROMOTIONAL OPPORTUNITIES: A Key to Powerful Marketing
The Chamber continues to focus on assisting our Members to succeed. One of the promotional opportunities within the Chamber is sponsoring Chamber Policy and Business Networking Events providing Member companies with exclusive access to policy makers, to further solidify your advocacy related messaging, as well as Business Networking events to improve your company's profile among the Chamber's large and diverse Membership helping to drive awareness and sales.
Sponsorship is the financial or in-kind support of an activity, used primarily to reach specified business goals. According to IEG's Complete Guide to Sponsorship, "Sponsorship should not be confused with advertising. Advertising is considered a quantitative medium, whereas sponsorship is considered a qualitative medium. It promotes a company in association with the sponsee."
