Chambers of Commerce are becoming the most trusted source for local information on the internet and through mobile devices like mobile phones and tablets. It’s easy to find information on the internet, but not so much within your close community.
The Richmond Chamber is celebrating the decision of the Board of Directors to move forward with a new program, Displayed Right by ChamberNation, that offers phone apps to our members. Be one of the first 40 to sign up for your phone app and you will be a Founding Investor with the Chamber, receiving excellent perks and publicity.
This coming Tuesday, September 11th, we will be offering a series of FREE 30 minute webinars on how your business can receive a mobile app at a fraction of the cost by being a member of the Richmond Chamber. You can participate from your own home or office, or swing by the Chamber Conference Room to sit in the live webinar.
With your participation, you will provide the Chamber with a brand new way to promote our member businesses and drive more customers and clients your way.

Why Should My Business Have A Mobile App?
- Build customer loyalty: Everyone likes to feel included in something special, so make customers feel like VIPs by offering discounts, coupons, special promotions, electronic punch cards and packaged deals just for using the App.
- Create a viral buzz: Encourage customers to use the mobile App and tell their friends about your business using the built-in sharing capabilities of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, your blog, SMS, newsletters, text messaging and email.
- Grow customer lists: A mobile App can gather names and email addresses from directly within the App and easily export them into the top email marketing campaign services to be used in additional emails.
- Get instant feedback: Mobile Apps allow customers to leave feedback on fan walls, share photos, make restaurant reservations, and send comments in a variety of ways. Create games and contests that engage the public.
