Sponsorship Opportunities

Sponsor A Chamber Event!

The Chamber holds over a hundred events each year that attract thousands of business professionals. Becoming a sponsor and actively participating in the Chamber's programs and events are excellent ways for your company to get valuable advertising exposure, demonstrate your commitment to the community, and gain professional development. Targeted opportunities to reach young professionals, female professionals, community business leaders, and small business owners are all available. Get your name out in the business community by sponsoring an upcoming event. Take advantage of the sponsorship opportunities your Chamber offers and watch your business grow!

The following sponsorship opportunities are available:

Website Sponsorship/Advertisers' Pool
What better way to advertise your business to thousands of potential clients than to have your business LOGO, with a link to your home site, on the Chamber Website!  2008 website sponsors are currently being sought. Limited 2008 website sponsorships are available for a period of 1 year and include the following:

• Company Logo/Banner for Advertiser's Pool - $500/year

Each time a new page loads, the banner will be randomly selected from a pool of advertisers. This offers greater opportunity and frequency of the advertiser's message. Also, we offer both static and animated banners. If advertisers want to increase the frequency of their ad appearing, they simply may buy more ads. For example, there are 10 advertisers in the pool, each has a 1 in 10 (10%) chance of appearing on every page. But, if an advertiser purchases an additional 2 ads, they now have a 3 in 12 (25%) chance of appearing on every page. An advertiser can buy the banner space for a specific page. For example, a realtor may purchase the banner space on the Real Estate page in the membership directory. That way every time someone goes to the Real Estate page, that advertiser's ad would be the only one that appears.
