Look Out! SarasotaChamber.com Is Getting A  Makeover

You will notice a difference next time you log onto The Chamber's website. On August 19, The Chamber will launch its new enhanced website, now powered through a new database. This website will enhance member benefits by allowing users to log into the Members Only section and track your referrals and pay invoices. It will still maintain all the current services such as registering for events, uploading Member to Member Discounts (M2M) and uploading community events and press releases, but will provide a more user friendly platform.  

 

Please look out for future Chamber communications regarding information on these feature.  We thank you for your patience as we make this transition.
