SUMMARY:Lunch Bunch - Burgers & Beer
DESCRIPTION:Connect\, engage and grow your business through referrals leads and tips over lunch. The meeting is made up of three short presentations\, self-introductions by all\, business card exchange\, chamber updates and the only cost is your meal. That’s right! You are also supporting a local chamber member just by attending; it is truly a Win-Win-Win for the entire business community. \n\nNetworking is about creating connections. Over time\, these connections become relationships built on trust\, and that trust ultimately leads to referrals for your business. \n\nThe Greater CV Chamber is a great place to start building those relationships that lead to new clients\, contacts and customers. Our networking events are designed to open doors and help you meet the people who will help you grow your business. \n\nBenefits of networking \n\nCreating connections – Networking is a great way to meet people that you normally wouldn’t meet in your line of work. Building these relationships can ultimately lead to more introductions and referrals. \n\nHelping others – Networking is not a one-way street. When you approach networking as\, “How can I help someone else?” you will build a reputation as being knowledgeable\, reliable and supportive. \n\nBusiness opportunities – You never know what kind of opportunities will come as a result of networking. It could be a referral\, a partnership or a sale. Be ready to make the most of these opportunities when they come along.

There are incomplete\, if not downright inaccurate ideas of services\, products\, programs or advocacy. Be amazed at the range of issues and services your multi-city chamber offers. Innovating\, busting old habits\, and establishing new relationships is an essential part of our mission. \nPlus\, there are a multitude of features at your fingertips that you can take advantage of – that\, in all honestly\, you probably aren’t!\nLastly\, there is the “unmatched” list of offerings unseen in the valley before.\nLet’s plan the future together. Join me at Tips N Tricks!\n-Katie Stice\, IOM\, ACE. \nKatie has worked with the US Chamber of Commerce Accreditation Program twice over\, both times receiving 5 Stars for her chamber. She currently sits on the board for the US Chamber’s Institute for Organizational Management (IOM) and has also serviced on the Emerging Leaders Council for Western Association of Chamber Executives. She became an Accredited Chamber Executive (ACE) in 2013 and received her IOM in 2010. Katie was named Top 40 Under 40 for Palm Springs Life Magazine.
