    Top 5 Ways an EAC Membership Can Help You Grow Your Business


  • Gain Credibility

    Did you know a Chamber membership can boost your business' reputation by 57%? And, if consumers know that a small business is a member of its local chamber, the business enjoys a 49% increase in its consumer favorability rating, a 73% increase in consumer awareness, a 68% increase in its local reputation, and an 80% increase in the likelihood that consumers will patronize the business in the future.


  • In-Depth Marketing Data

    Data drives business decisions, and the Chamber can provide information for your business, including demographics, labor availability, transportation, taxes, cost of living comparisons, education, and much more. The Chamber's economic development professionals can streamline the demographic reporting for you and connect you with our partner resources to assist in your planning for your business. 


  • Confidential Project Management & Site Selection Assistance

    We understand the importance of confidentiality when it comes to mapping out a strategy for expansion or for a new location. We help companies evaluate locations within our region in a confidential, objective manner, and serve as our region’s single point of contact for business location or expansion. The Chamber stays on top of current real estate availability and can help companies narrow their location selection for everything from a manufacturing operation to the perfect site for the latest biotech research facility.


  • High-Quality Business Network

    The Elgin Area Chamber is the heart of the Elgin area business community - there is no greater local resource for connecting with business, community, and government. The Chamber can facilitate introductions to key government, education, ultilities and private partners at the local and state level.


  • Business Support

    We’re here to help. Whether you’ve been in business for a few years or you’re nurturing an idea for a new venture, the Chamber connects you with the resources we find helpful to spark your next step through tips, ideas, insights and through our partners.
