Business Tip
Build Community, Not Just Customers
One of the greatest strengths of a small business is the ability to form real, lasting relationships. Don’t just aim to sell ? aim to serve. Get involved in local events, support fellow businesses, and engage authentically with your neighbors. When you invest in your community, your community invests in you.
The Chamber is here to help you make those connections ? because when one of us grows, we all grow.
The Chamber is excited to help promote our business members events! To have your events, sales, specials, and more included in our monthly Chamber Newsletter, simply email us at info@smithvilletx.org. Our newsletter is sent to all members and non-members, and the details may also be shared across our social media platforms.
Let's get the word out and support each other!
Also, be sure to add your events to the Smithville Area Chamber of Commerce event calendar on our website. If you need assistance, contact us at 512-237-2313 or chamber@smithvilletx.org
