The Madera Chamber of Commerce offers great opportunities for business people to invest their time for the purpose of enhancing business connections. It seems that 2010 has brought additional interest in getting involved and a desire to personally network outside the workplace.
Over the next few months the Chamber will be providing additional opportunities for involvement. I am very pleased to start by announcing that the Ambassador Corps is being revived and we are now seeking Chamber members to become an active participant in the Ambassador Corps of the Madera Chamber of Commerce. About the Ambassador Corps… The Corps is a volunteer public relations team made up of business representatives from the membership. Since membership is the lifeblood of the Chamber’s existence, the Corps plays a vital role. The goal of the Ambassador Corps is to enhance and maintain the prosperity of the Madera District Chamber of Commerce through the promotion of goodwill and understanding within the membership and business community of Madera.
The Ambassador Corps maintains a diversity of representation from the business community. Individuals wishing to accept a role with the Ambassador Corps must be willing to make the time to participate. As an Ambassador you will participate in monthly calls to current members, actively work on membership recruitment, and attend grand openings, ribbon cuttings, mixers, civic functions and monthly Ambassador Corps meetings. Attendance at the monthly meeting is critical as this is where the schedule for the month’s activities is provided. Ambassadors may also be requested by the Board of Directors and/or the President/CEO to work on other projects.
Being an Ambassador can be very rewarding but is also time consuming. All activities and participation allow individuals serving on the Corps to maximize their networking with others. Interested candidates should consider the time commitment prior to becoming involved in the Corps. Approximately 3 – 6 hours a month is the average time an Ambassador volunteers. It can be during the work hours as well as before or after normal hours of work.
An informational meeting will be held on Thursday, February 18 at 4:00 p.m. at the Madera District Chamber of Commerce.
