Chamber offers new programming geared toward the first year of membership

The Greater Oklahoma City Chamber recently launched the Chamber Connection program, a multifaceted approach to introducing new members to the organization over a one-year period. Made up of in-person orientation meetings, a monthly email newsletter and a physical membership kit, Chamber Connection helps members learn more about the history, vision and mission of the Chamber while finding their place within the organization.

If you joined the Chamber within the last 18 months, look for the Chamber Connection email in your inbox once a month. This series of 12 emails will introduce you to the Chamber’s senior-level staff members and give an overview of the departments that make up the organization. The monthly newsletter will also include the best tips for networking and promoting your business with the Chamber.

Member Orientation, the Chamber’s longstanding event that explains the Chamber’s key initiatives and allows networking with other members, has also been rebranded as a Chamber Connection event. It takes place every six weeks and is offered virtually at this time. You can register for this free online event at okcchamber.com/events.

New members will also receive their Chamber Connection welcome kit in the mail, which includes their membership log-in information and their membership plaque.

“Our goal is for every member to feel connected to the work of the Chamber and the benefits of joining our organization,” said Sunny Cearley, vice president of membership. “The Chamber Connection program will help us deepen our member engagement like never before.”
