Ambassador and Leads Group Members Needed
Now is the time to make a New Year’s resolution to do more networking, and the Chamber’s Ambassador and Leads Groups are a perfect way to meet more people while gaining exposure for your business. Both of these groups found a way to get together in 2020, even if it was on Zoom. Hopefully 2021 will be more normal than 2020! Ambassadors meet for lunch every month, attend Ribbon Cuttings and Chamber events, and represent the Chamber in the community. The Leads Group also meets monthly for lunch to network and exchange leads. If you are interested in joining one of these groups, contact Dianne Mallernee – diannem@tds.net or call 706-632-5680.
