Membership

Member Benefits

Regardless of business size or industry sector, one key to success
in a soft economy is a chamber of commerce membership.

In the past, chambers have been viewed mostly as socializing bodies where business people come together to network. Although still a valuable networking venue, today’s chamber is much more. The Greater Fort Myers Chamber of Commerce provides solutions and serves as a catalyst for growing our local economy.

The impact that local chambers have on business also includes increased consumer confidence and patronage. The Shapiro Group, an Atlanta-based research firm, recently surveyed 2,000 Americans and found that chamber membership causes consumers to see a business in a more positive light and increases the likelihood that they will shop or purchase services from member businesses.
