Chamber Introduction
Hello and Welcome!
Allow me to introduce you to the Gateway Regional
Chamber of Commerce,
the largest chamber in the New York Metro Area. I
think you’ll be very interested in the kinds of
benefits others have obtained for their businesses.
Companies that join the Chamber cite 2 major
benefits:
1)
Customer acquisition – especially valuable to
companies who want to grow, who want to make sure
they are getting their fair share, or more than
their fair share of opportunity.
2) Cost reduction – for companies who want to
confirm they are shopping effectively.
Most companies are looking for more business. We
have chamber members, who made a commitment to
participate, and are now enjoying greater
visibility, personal introductions to other members,
and 50% or greater increases in sales.
We have a series of panels and committees for
special business interests, manufacturing, shipping,
etc., which help businesses meet and/or solve common
challenges, including sales, marketing, strategy,
etc. We have a series of Affinity Programs that
give the lowest cost to Chamber members, in areas
including telecom, office supplies, conference
calls, and payroll.
Most members have found that the savings are in
excess of their membership dues, which really makes
our Chamber valuable to them.
In addition to the cost-savings initiatives, we hold
approximately 150 events throughout the year.
Our numerous local chamber and
networking groups all have very full calendars from
the Taste of Kenilworth to the Central Jersey Art in
the Park to Linden’s Annual Awards Dinner. The
events range from very big, like the IBA’s Annual
Dinner to the very intimate like our introductory
New Member Breakfasts.
In addition, Gateway itself hosts and sponsors
events throughout the year like our Annual
Business-to-Business Expo in October to the Annual
Mayor’s Dinner in March to the Annual Golf outing in
May.
Ultimately, by providing our members with
significant, tangible benefits while concurrently
offering them both large and small venues for
networking and relationship building, the Gateway
Chamber has been able to consistently offer business
owners much, much more than your average chamber.
If you’re interested in further details, please
don’t hesitate in calling the Chamber office at
908-352-0900.
All the best,
Jim Coyle
President
