Ribbon Cuttings & Groundbreakings

You can take advantage of a Chamber hosted ribbon cutting, grand opening or groundbreaking ceremony. This is an excellent opportunity to promote your new location or expansion.

Membership dues are determined by both full-time and part-time employees.

Every two part-time employees count as one full-time employee. Please calculate this when determining the total number of full-time equivalents you employ. Please note: Your membership is 90% tax deductable as an ordinary and necessary business expense. It is not a charitable tax deduction. The Chamber is not a charity, but serves as an advocate for area businesses.

EVENT SPONSORSHIP

Creating a quality dialogue between a brand and its potential customers can be achieved by moving away from the traditional forms of advertising and participating in a different and a more effective marketing channel — EVENT SPONSORSHIP.

Event sponsorship allows companies to reach specific audiences and build long-lasting relationships.

For event sponsorship information, please contact Mia Wilken at mwilken@lcoc.com or 402-436-2355.

83% of consumers positively view brands that provide quality event experiences and 78% of respondents admit that engaging with brands that create memorable moments makes them much more likely to buy their product. It is becoming more evident that investing in experiences and building strong relationships is much wiser than spending money on advertising spaces. Being under the same roof and engaging with hundreds or thousands of potential customers offers greater return on investment.
