“Trying to grow your business without being a member of the Chamber is like trying to live a healthy life without any form of exercise! As an Ambassador, Board Member, and long-term member, I have found that active involvement in the SWCRC has been a key ingredient for making the connections and building the relationships necessary for a healthy business!”
“I moved here from Seattle in 2014 and when starting my business I was not very well connected in the Downriver area. Being a part of the Southern Wayne County Regional Chamber was the best decision I have ever made. The connections I now have within this chamber have grown my business in multiple ways. A great leadership team makes all the difference.”
“The support and leadership that Elliott’s Bakery and Coffee Shop has received from the Southern Wayne County Regional Chamber has been phenomenal. Ron (SWCRC President) attended and MC’d our official ribbon cutting ceremony, helped the bakery be involved in Chamber events such as the “Taste of Downriver”, and the support from other Chamber members such as insurance quotes, discounts, and information has been of great value to us as new business owners.”
“Riverview is very proud to be a member of the Southern Wayne County Regional Chamber. The chamber has grown to be a powerful voice for the entire downriver business community and the municipalities it encompasses.”
“…if you own your own business, why don’t you come see what the Chamber can do for you. I’ve been a Chamber member for 4 years and an Ambassador for 3. The connections I’ve made and the people I’ve met have helped me greatly. But then I also do what I can to help at events or if I can’t help out, I at least try to be there. Just saying…Come on, you’ve got nothing to lose and much to gain!”
“I have been a Chamber member and ambassador for many, many years and encourage all businesses to join and become active in your local Chamber. Through your involvement, you will meet others that share common goals and you can assist each other in reaching them — which is the essence of building a strong community. Which is good for all of us!”
