Dear Valued Chamber Member:
Due to your inspirational commitment to your Madison County Chamber of Commerce and your community, we are proud to announce that Chamber membership has increased from 73 members in January 2020 to 300 members strong in July 2022. We celebrate this accomplishment with you, and we hope that you can join us for our Membership Appreciation Celebration on August 30th, 2022 from 6:00-7:00 pm at Boutier Winery!
Likewise, this time of unparalleled membership growth and engagement has challenged Chamber leadership to proactively evaluate how this organization can continue evolving to both meet your needs and exceed your expectations.
In an effort to better serve you, your Chamber’s Membership Development Committee is proud to announce two main organizational changes: 1) membership benefit package enhancements and 2) annual billing cycle. These changes will be effective in January 2023.
1) MEMBERSHIP BENEFIT PACKAGE ENHANCEMENTS
The “Membership Benefit Packages” document is linked to this email for an overview of the core benefits and the value added benefits associated with each membership package moving forward. You will find that that the packages more accurately encompass the significant increase in programming and events that have developed since the current benefit tier package was created in 2020. You’ll also find that these tiers better reflect the value you are receiving from your membership investment accordingly.

Moving forward, all members will be billed each December for the upcoming year. This means that all members will be invoiced in December 2022 for your 2023 membership. You will no longer be renewing on your anniversary month. While there are many advantages to an annual billing system, the main advantage is that an annual billing better complements our tier benefit packages. We can more effectively and efficiently serve members when we know which level you will be renewing at the beginning of the year rather than from month to month
Action Needed by September 20th, 2022
If you currently renew January-July: Your December 2022 invoice for your 2023 membership will be credited. If you currently renew August-December: You will not receive an invoice during those months in addition to the December 2022 invoice for your 2023 membership. Your December 2022 invoice will be prorated to account for your 2023 membership package.
So that we can accurately prepare your December 2022 invoice, we need to know which membership package you prefer for your 2023 membership. Please complete this brief form: https://forms.gle/8bRBfX1zUqv3cbPr7
With your partnership, we are excited to take this organization to the next level. Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions.
Your success is our business,
