Chamber News
 

Social Media Marketing for your business.
  
 

At your Chamber of Commerce, we care about you, our member and would like to help you increase your volume of customers and profitability. We will be visiting one shopping center a week this summer to feature an item from each of our member's business on our social media outlets. We'll be posting on Instagram, Facebook, Google Plus and Twitter with links on our website. If you are a member and you are following us, not only will we follow you back but we will re-post your featured item on our page. For those professionals or businesses not located in a Key Biscayne shopping center, we'd like to ask you to send in a promotion and we will feature your category i.e.- "home health agencies". Please contact us to help us promote your business, as your input is vital. The first shopping center we will be visiting is Harbor Plaza the week of June 23rd. We look forward to having a great  and successful summer, and don't forget your ABC's -"Always Buy Chamber".
