“The Chamber has allowed me to tap into the knowledge base of some of the leading business minds of Tallahassee. Most young businesses incorrectly focus their membership on the amount of sales they get; the wealth of the Chamber lies in the friendships and mentors you gain. This will help grow your business in ways you can’t imagine.”
“Comcast’s membership with the Greater Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce is extremely beneficial for us in a number of ways. Involvement with the Chamber and its events allows us to network with fellow members and share information about our Comcast Business services. We are also able to connect with local residents who may ultimately become customers of our residential Xfinity television, internet, digital voice or home security and automation services.”
“Through the Chamber I’ve had the opportunity to establish new relationships with business and community partners. I’ve been able to develop strategic partnerships for my volunteer work and my professional growth. The Chamber is an outstanding resource and the programs they offer to learn new business skills have been invaluable.”
“I enjoy Chamber events because there’s been something for me at every stage of my career. Just getting started? Access. Expanding my network? Business After Hours, Chamber Breakfasts, etc. Honing my leadership skills? That’s LT all the way. I don’t know of anywhere else in town that focuses so singularly on improving all aspects of the business community in Tallahassee, and it’s been a great place for me to be.”
“When Earl Bacon founded his own insurance agency in 1963, one of the first things he did was join the Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce. Our commitment to local economic development has not wavered in the 55 years since. The Chamber’s great programs – the Professional Women’s Forum, the CEO Series, the Annual Conference, and others – are the best way to interact with other local business owners and keep abreast of what is happening in the local community.”
“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.”
“The Chamber offers many great programs, yet my favorite by far is Leadership Tallahassee. Not only do you meet new people, you also experience parts of Tallahassee that expand your knowledge of our community. I am a better citizen because I participated in Leadership Tallahassee”
“AMWAT Moving Warehousing & Storage value its relationship and membership with the Greater Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce greatly.

We owe much of our growth and success to the Greater Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce; but like any membership, it is up to the member to access the many programs offered by the Chamber and get involved.”
“The Tallahassee Chamber was one of the first organizations that showed a genuine interest in helping me get CPS23 Marketing/The Current Agency started, and more importantly, the Chamber played an active role at helping me establish relationships throughout the Tallahassee community.”
“Target Print & Mail has been in business in Tallahassee for more than 35 years, and we’ve been a proud Chamber member since day one. Over the years our business has grown and changed quite a bit, and the Chamber has played a key role along the way. Among other things our Chamber membership has helped us meet new customers, build relationships with existing partners, share ideas with fellow business owners, and learn from thought leaders through events like Lunch & Learns, CEO Breakfasts and the Chamber Conference. There is no question that Tallahassee and Target Print & Mail are better off thanks to the Chamber! ”
