Grow you business this Spring with your Chamber resouces.
Are you looking for ways to grow you business? Do you want to reach more potential customers? There are a variety of Chamber resources that you may not be aware of which are available to our business members. One of these resources is our "Hot Deals". Hot Deals are online ads in the form of a coupon and are available at no charge to you, the Chamber Member. Hot Deals may be used to promote specials you are offering to the general public or to other Chamber Members. The Hot Deals appear on our website and are distributed to each member via email.
Another way to grow your business is with an Esert. An Esert is a full color, one page ad, which will run in the Chamber's weekly newsletter for four consecutive weeks for only $75. Just send us your ad in pdf or jpg format and we will do the rest. The newsletter is distributed to over 675 email address, is online 24 hour a day 7 days a week on our website and on the Chamber's FaceBook page.

In case you missed it.....North Texas shattered a Super Bowl record Tuesday morning at Cowboys Stadium. More then 2,000 people attended the second of three workshops for Super Bowl XLV's Emerging Business Program. That's the largest crowd ever to attend the NFL program. The Emerging Business workshop helps educate minority and woman owned business on possible procurement opportunities for Super Bowl XLV.
