MEMBERSHIP… a little bit like a gym membership! 😉
You can join, pay your membership fee and admire it from afar… or you can turn up, get involved and make the most of it.
I’ve been a member of the Cambridge Chamber of Commerce NZ for close to 25 years, am incredibly proud to be a Life Member, and through Kaz, a proud Chamber Partner.
And after all those years, I still believe you get out of your membership what you put into it.
Over the past month alone, I’ve had the opportunity to attend a free Business Capabilities training session, learn more about how I can get even more from my Chamber membership, hear about the growth happening within our community and, of course… network, network, network!
But there’s also a huge amount happening behind the scenes.
Our Chamber team are passionate advocates for Cambridge businesses. The advocacy work they undertake on behalf of members – and often the wider business community – is incredible, and I think we’re very fortunate to have such a proactive Chamber batting for Cambridge.
So, if you’re a member, my advice is simple: use it!
Turn up. Attend something you wouldn’t normally attend. Introduce yourself to someone new. Ask what’s available. Have a conversation. Get involved.
Unlike the gym, there’s considerably less Lycra involved… and often coffee. ☕😂
Membership works best when you work your membership.
