Dear Shawnee Chamber Members,
Help Maximize the Value of Your Membership through Engagement in the Shawnee Chamber of Commerce
In building and growing a successful business, it takes not only great products or service offerings but professional advisors, suppliers, customers, employees, and other stakeholders, all being our business partners that play a vital role in the success of the business. In the company I am with, PBI-Gordon Companies, one of our four core values is “Partnership” meaning “we are focused on the mutual success of our customers, suppliers, and employee-owners” along with all other stakeholders. One of our other core values is “Pride” meaning “as an employee-owner we are accountable, responsible, engaged, and passionate”
As an active member of the Shawnee Chamber, it’s more than just about “Partnership” and “Pride” and for all members, it’s about more than just attending events—it’s about making the personal connections that not only brings enjoyment and meaningful purpose in our work, but also helps you stay connected, informed, and actively involved in the local business community. It is through these engagements that partnerships can be built, new innovations identified, best and ever-changing business practices can be learned, among many other benefits which help keep us relevant, engaged, and passionate; all which benefit our respective businesses.
Staying truly engaged with the Shawnee Chamber means reading Chamber emails to stay updated on opportunities, following the Chamber on social media to celebrate fellow members, and supporting Chamber businesses whenever possible.
By staying plugged in, you gain valuable insights, make meaningful connections, and position your business for growth. Whether it’s taking advantage of advocacy efforts, sharing your expertise, or simply amplifying the success of others, your involvement strengthens the entire Shawnee business community.
Engagement also opens the door to partnership and collaboration. When you participate—whether by commenting on a social media post, referring a fellow member, or attending a roundtable discussion—you help create a thriving network where businesses support each other.
At the Shawnee Chamber tagline states, and as we believe, "Together We Grow." Your Partnership through participation fuels not only your own Pride and Success, but also the economic vitality of our region. Get involved today and make the most of your membership!
Warm regards,
Don
