With an enhanced Web site, we can be the tri-county area s clearinghouse of information, Maghan said. We plan to roll out more programs and services in the next few months, Maghan said. We recently initiated a referral program, Metro Business Savers, that has worked very well, especially for small businesses. Based on a similar program in Clearwater, Fla., Metro Business Savers generates sales leads and saves time for business owners by connecting businesses. It is then faxed to members that sell that particular product.
Immediate contact is made, and members stay within the network.
It s much easier than flipping through a phone book, Maghan said. MJCC is promoting its newly enhanced Web site with a variety of promotional materials, such as a mouse pad featuring art by Clinton artist Wyatt Waters. It s not enough for chambers to have Web sites, said Maghan. It s very time-consuming, but important, to keep them updated. Until July 10, numbered movie-type countdowns will tease users prior to launching.
