Please provide a list of services and items for sale at your Collinsville business for a database being generated by the Chamber of Commerce. Give your list to Wanda at the Chamber Office (11th & Main) or email to cvillechamber3477@sbcglobal.net. This is for all Collinsville businesses, not just Chamber members. |
A variety of topics were shared Thursday at a meeting dedicated to Chamber self-evaluation. The comments and suggestions came from local business owners (some thriving and others struggling just to pay the rent/payroll each month). Most praised the existing postive aspects of the Collinsville business environment while challenging the Chamber/community to make improvements. Promotion of Collinsville and it's many businesses was a common theme but exactly how to best accomplish that is still in the works. Creating a complete list of services and items available for sale in Collinsville is one of the first set objectives. How that list is most effectively made available is not yet set (some combination of printed and online media).
Suggestions were made for improved newcomer interfacing (welcome wagon, information sheets, etc. for new residents and ribbon cutting, advertising / promotions, evening meetings, etc. for businesses). The discussion and suggestions will continue at the April 3rd noon luncheon meeting which will be held at American Bank of Oklahoma.
