In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, First Commerce and the TMH Foundation have teamed up to declare Wednesday, October 21, as #PinkPOWER Day! Businesses and individuals are invited to help “paint the town pink” to raise awareness for breast cancer, and raise finds for patients being treated at the Tallahassee Memorial Walker Breast Center. Show your #PinkPOWER support by dressing in pink and decorating your businesses, homes and home offices in pink. www.tmh.org/giving/pinkpower
Why I joined the Chamber
“In my line of work, success is dependent on cultivating relationships, which can be difficult without a common thread on which to build. The Chamber of Commerce has been the common thread that allowed me in the door where I could demonstrate the value I bring to the relationship. I recently began a working relationship with Anna Duren from Walter Green born entirely out of a connection first made by the Chamber. The opportunities afforded by my company’s Chamber membership opened doors for me in ways I have not seen with other business development strategies. In banking, familiarity and trust come first, and that usually has to develop over time. This is why the Chamber works for me – it allows me to dedicate the time and put the relationship before the ask.”
