The holiday shopping season will soon be upon us. Already, there are Black Friday commercials, newspaper flyers and online ads. However, Small Business Saturday (November 25) is just as important to supporting our local communities. It has been a tradition in the United States since 2010.
The hundreds of small businesses in your chamber look to your organization as another vehicle to grow their customer base. A mobile application designed specifically for chambers of commerce is the perfect way to help these local companies increase their sales during this critical holiday season as well as all year long. ChamberLynk is that mobile solution that can help grow businesses thanks to its many features. With this flexible mobile app, certain functionality can be visible to the public, making it a win-win-win situation for the community, your chamber members and your chamber itself. Below are just a few ways that ChamberLynk can benefit everyone:
Advertising Opportunities
To drive further revenue for chamber businesses, ChamberLynk’s deals section and/or online ads can be opened to your entire community. In five minutes members can conveniently create and pay for deals right online. Your chamber members can gain further visibility and new customers at a fraction of the cost of other advertising vehicles. The new business generated from these deals not only means additional revenue for your members, but also for your chamber. When your chamber members use this feature, you will see how this new revenue stream adds up for your chamber, making ChamberLynk not a liability, but a solution that pays for itself and even other programs too!
Online Directory
Another way great way to generate new revenue for your many members is to make your online directory public. Local residents can easily scan for restaurants, shops, hair salons or other businesses in the area. They can even discover if a certain business is running a deal because it will be designated with a flag next to its name, making it the perfect time to try something new!
Events
Holiday time also means an increase in the number of community events. You can make certain events visible to the public too. Watch the number of attendees grow at your next parade, festival or holiday stroll, which is just another way to help increase business for members too.
