Major Events Booked For

(and it is) but now is the time to mark your calendar for next year's
major Chamber events. Our Economic
Forecast is on January 30, the Business Awards Gala is
on May 8, 2008 and our Golf
Tournament is June 19,
2008. Check out all our upcoming events on our newly renovated
online Chamber Events Calendar.
Seminar Series Has Full Slate Of
Topics
The Chamber's popular Lunch &
Learn seminar series has a full slate of topics right to the end of the
year. Topics range from Successful Hiring Strategies to Maximizing the Value of Your Business to Successful Client Retention. For details on these seminars and more visit our
Seminars page
or print this form to register.
Dollar Impact and Energy Saving
Practices
Over half of respondents said the high Canadian dollar will have a negative impact on their
business. Only ten
percent said it will have a positive impact. Our July Quick Poll
asks "Does your office implement energy saving practices in the
summer?" Click here to answer the Quick Poll.
Member Discounts Continue To
Grow
The Chamber's Member-to-Member
discount program continues to grow with several new discounts being added
in the past month. This program benefits Chamber members in two
ways. First, you can save your company money by buying goods and
services at discounted prices. Second, you can increase your sales
by offering a discount and drawing in new customers. Check out all
the discounts on our Member Discount page. Chamber Website Visits Reaches Record
High
The Burlington Chamber website had
over 40,000 visitors in June. While this might seem
low compared to other websites that quote 300,000 or 400,000
HITS each month,
40,000 VISITS is actually a more accurate measure of
website activity. Hits is a measure of the number of files
(pictures, tables) that are opened when a page is visited, (the Burlington
Chamber website registers over 400,000 hits each month) but visits is a
measure of the number of people who open a web page.
The
number of people who have visited the Burlington Chamber website
has increased from 1,800 in June of 2004 to 40,000 in June
2007.
