TESTIMONIALS |

"Considering all the perks, the VIP treatment, and the exposure we receive for our sponsorship dollars, agreeing to serve as a Chattanooga Chamber Champion for a second year, or a third, or a 10th, is an easy decision. The Chattanooga Chamber staff is a dynamite team of perfectionists who exceed expectations and make you feel immediately like you have hired dozens of new employees who measure their successes by your successes. Plus, knowing our level of involvement well in advance makes event and publicity planning on our end a whole lot easier. The Chattanooga Chamber Champions program is a natural fit for any organization that wants positive publicity and a chance to become more involved in the Chattanooga area’s business community. I wholeheartedly recommend it!" | |

"Serving as a Chamber Champion was one of our firm’s best decisions of the year. The exposure we received prior to and during each event was outstanding. Making the entire commitment for events a year in advance benefits our firm and the Chamber. As sponsors, we don’t have to make budget decisions prior to each event. And the Chamber has more lead time to give each sponsor maximum exposure - email blasts, invitations, event signage, advertising. We saw our firm’s name everywhere we looked!" | |

PURPOSE |
|
The purpose of the Chattanooga Area Chamber Champions Sponsorship Program is to eliminate the repetitive solicitation of funds necessary to carry out the five premier events and the scores of networking opportunities we have throughout the year. Members in the Chamber Champions Sponsorship Program are contacted ONLY ONCE. In that way, the Chamber provides you with a comprehensive opportunity to budget and sponsor at three different levels that best match your budget and marketing needs.
Marketing and promoting your company is one of your largest business expenses. By participating in the Chattanooga Chamber Champions you have access to creative and effective promotional opportunities to target your customers.
The full spectrum of Chattanooga business is reflected in the Chamber’s member-investors: manufacturing, service, retail, insurance, financial, health care, education, information technologies, non-profits, government, and more. The scope of Chamber member companies ranges from home-based enterprises with sole proprietors to major international corporations.
The common element among the Chamber’s diverse members is leadership in the business community. By virtue of their membership and participation, these companies and the decision-makers that direct them commit to helping make the Chattanooga area a better place to live, work and do business. At the same time, Chamber member-investors enjoy a host of benefits, including the best business connections around! |
