Businesses join the Thurston County Chamber for a variety of reasons.  Whether you are looking to grow your business, increase sales, pay less for business services, or have a voice in community issues that are affecting your bottom line, the Thurston County Chamber is on your side.  Here are a few examples of how we work for you:

 

WORD OF MOUTH ADVERTISING

The Chamber offers three monthly networking events:

  • Forum: Luncheon Program held the 2nd Wednesday of each month at Saint Martin's Worthington Center

  • Business After Hours: Hosted by Chamber members at their location, this event takes place the 3rd Thursday of each month.

  • Your Morning MIXXer: Like Business After Hours, but for early birds, this event is hosted by members on the 1st Tuesday of the month.

In addition to our monthly events, our annual Business Showcase provides members with an excellent way to promote their products and services to the community at large.

 

REFERRALS

Chambers of Commerce around the world are known as the community resource and business referral center. The Thurston County Chamber is no different. We receive thousands of calls each year from people looking for local products and services, as well as general information on our area.

In addition, we publish an annual Buyer's Guide and Community Resource Directory that is distributed to members, visitors, persons looking to relocate, employers for recruitment, Fort Lewis, and the state legislature.

Our online Business Directory refers our members 24/7 to customers seeking services in Thurston County via the world wide web.
