November is here and there are so many things to be thankful for. These are some of the exciting upcoming events we are thankful for at the Chamber: 1. Women in Leadership: On November 15, our monthly Women in Leadership luncheon will be a speed networking event. These women and men attendee’s lead within our community and within their careers. We are grateful for all the leaders in Chandler that serve as great role models. Come to network, be inspired by leaders in our community, and grow your leadership skills. Any business professional can join us, register at chandlerchamber.com. 2. Chandler 100: State of the Business Community – We are grateful for the continual growth and economic prosperity of our Chandler community. A large amount of this success is contributed to the incredible businesses that build our community. On Wednesday, November 30th we will be showcasing the Top 100 companies that shape Chandler. We will be turning an empty vacant office space managed by Douglas Allred into a high-end event venue featuring the Taste of Chandler, entertainment, and networking opportunities that you will not want to miss. Register at chandlerchamber.com to discover, meet and be inspired by these amazing companies who have made Chandler their home. 3. Support Small Business Season by shopping at Chandler Chamber Member Businesses from November 1st until December 31st - Visiting local shops and restaurants and choosing to spend locally gives you the opportunity to network and befriend your neighbors. Making connections with the people that surround you encourages word-of-mouth marketing and creates the unified community that we all dream of belonging to. Small businesses support our community by creating jobs as well as donating to our nonprofits, our youth organizations, and our local events. Together, let’s help them thrive!

How can you support Chandler Chamber member businesses? It’s easy as ABC: A. Start your shopping early, the holiday is late. B. Spread the word to family and friends. C. Share the Chamber small business content on social media and leave positive reviews.

Chandler small businesses tie our community together: Our local retail, restaurants, boutiques, and entertainment businesses create a venue for people to gather, relax and make memories. Everything has a story to tell – you get to help tell it.

If you make it a point to shop local and show your support at a Chamber member business at least once a week throughout the year, it will change Chandler. So instead of waiting until Small Business Saturday to stop by a local retailer, go today to check out and uncover your new favorite places in town! Visit our Relocation Guide at ChandlerChamber.com and look at the business who are making a difference in our community by supporting each other and the Chandler Chamber of Commerce.
