SO WHAT DOES A CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE DO, ANYWAY?
Incorporated
in 1921 as a business organization, the Twinsburg Chamber of Commerce has grown
in proportion to the growth of the community both in its membership and in the
services it renders. Although primarily
concerned with the support and promotion of the business community, the Chamber
directs its efforts toward all aspects of local progress in government,
education, and community. The Chamber’s
business is helping grow businesses in the community through cost saving membership
benefits, economic development, community development and tourism. Our motto is “Growing Your Business, Growing
Our Community”.
In
these tough economic times, the Chamber offers the following cost saving
benefits to its qualifying members: preferred premiums on workers' compensation,
health care through Anthem, and commercial lines of insurance; up to 25% off of
e-mail blast marketing tools; and special negotiated rates on print media
advertising.
Monthly business meetings and workshops
provide educational opportunities to learn new business approaches and
techniques, meet with fellow business people, discuss mutual problems and share
ideas. The Twinsburg
Chamber also sponsors Business Connects events, bringing the
business community together in a social setting, and providing networking
opportunities among participants and showcasing the host’s products or
services. The Chamber News is
a monthly electronic newsletter containing articles of interest and updates
from various local, county, state and federal agencies and business sources, as
well as announcements and information from our business members.
The
Chamber works for business-friendly legislation on local, state and federal
levels. A special website, www.TwinsburgBusinessVotes.com ,
designed in conjunction with the Ohio Chamber of Commerce, the U.S. Chamber of
Commerce, and VoteForBusiness.com offers
information regarding voter registration, candidates and issues, in a
non-partisan manner.
So,
what does a Chamber do? We educate,
advocate, and promote business in the community, and offer member businesses a
host of cost savings benefits. How may
we help you?

Chamber office is located on the square in Twinsburg at 9044 Church
