Visibility
As a member of the Ozona Chamber of Commerce, you will have multiple opportunities to introduce yourself and tell fellow Chamber members about your business, including luncheons, banquets, Chamber events and training. These events allow you a chance to spread the word about your business through interaction and networking as well as sharing your business cards with potential clients.
Your company name, address, phone, fax, email, website, social media links, products and services will be listed in the Membership Directory on the Chamber’s website as well as the printed directory, which is available upon request. New businesses and new residents often turn to the Chamber first for recommendations and referrals. With over 40,000 visitors to our website each year, your business listing in our online directory provides an opportunity to reach a global audience.
New Chamber members are listed in the Chamber Dialogue, a monthly newsletter sent to all members. Several businesses are featured each year in the newsletter through our Business of the Month and Business of the Year recognitions.
A section of the display area in the Visitor Center is reserved for Chamber members. Displaying your brochures or flyers will give you exposure to the thousands of visitors and new residents who pass through our Visitor Center each year.
Your Membership Plaque offers visibility and credibility to your business. Your customers will instantly recognize that you support your community.
The Chamber distributes Relocation/Information packets and brochures to anyone requesting information about Ozona. Whether it is one of the millions who find out about Ozona through the Tour Texas advertising program or just plain word of mouth, the Chamber makes sure that all requests for information are filled and continually promotes our community to a state and world-wide audience. Through our website, mailings and other advertising venues, the Chamber works hard to help you get your business information in front of the public.
Local and county maps are available at the Visitor center, making it easier for people to find and visit your business.
