Membership

Chamber membership is profitable for your business!

A national study reveals that membership in a local chamber of commerce significantly boosts a business’s image among consumers and other businesses.

The study by The Schapiro Group, an Atlanta-based market research firm, shows that when consumers know that a business is a member of the local chamber, they are more likely to rate it favorably. Consumers are sixty-three percent more likely to buy goods and services from a company they believe is a member of the chamber of commerce.

The Palos Verdes Peninsula Chamber of Commerce will help you and your employees make money, reduce costs and save time. More than 400 member companies have invested in the Chamber to grow their business and the community. With a wide variety of events and programs to choose from, there are numerous ways to connect in person or virtually. As a Chamber member, you benefit from increased visibility on multiple platforms, including online through our website and social media.
