What
Membership Means to You! |
- The Chamber works to build the economic base of Wise County and the
City of Norton, bringing you more employment, business opportunities,
private investment, and improved quality of life.
- The Chamber is your voice on issues of taxation, legislation, and
transportation. It represents you at legislative hearings, budget sessions,
and VDOT funding hearings.
- Your listing in the Chamber's Business Directory of Members
puts your business name on the desks of other business people, new
residents, and new businesses.
- The Chamber replies to thousands of inquiries about the surrounding
area, your business, and you. Inquiries about products or services are
directed to Chamber members.
- The Chamber sponsors meetings and receptions that provide valuable
networking opportunities for you and your business. Members are linked by
shared interests and concerns and can learn from each other.
- The Catalyst published six times a year, contains news of Chamber
and community events of interest to members.
- Each year, the Chamber distributes thousands of brochures that help
local businesses obtain maximum benefit from tourism.
- The Chamber is your best local source for accurate business
information. Whether it's economic data, news of regulatory policies, new
legislation, or the latest in area demographics, the Chamber can help!
- The Chamber is the only organization through which we can all work
together to develop the area as an economic, financial, educational,
medical, and cultural center. Ask yourself, "If the Chamber of
Commerce didn't do all these things, who would?"
- Would you like your business to be larger? The Chamber staff, added
to your staff, will multiply your effectiveness in the community.
- Area businesses succeed, in part, due to the efforts of the Chamber.
Your membership will help to continue development of the economy.
- Your Chamber membership shows your customers that you care about
the future of Wise County and the City of Norton. Your customers, in turn,
care about a business that cares about them!

Membership Does Not Cost-- It Pays!

You don't buy newspapers--you buy news.
You don't buy glasses--you buy vision.
You don't buy awnings--you buy
shade.
And, you don't buy membership in your Chamber of Commerce.
You buy the
cooperation of the ablest men and women in
your local businesses and
professions--men and women
with whom you join hands to achieve those goals and
objectives which you alone cannot attain.
To join the Chamber, click on the
