“We are excited to be welcoming our Members and friends back to our networking events. Networking is so much more than just gathering. It is about connecting, sharing information, and supporting one another. This is important now more than ever. For 2021, our hosts will be those we have rescheduled from 2020 as were not able to host networking events after February. If a Member is interested in hosting a future event, please contact us at the Chamber to ensure we have you on the list, stated Erin Mullen – TACC Member Service & Event Manager.
The Chamber’s “After Business Mixers” provide a networking forum for Chamber Members and area business people in addition to showcasing the site of the host as well as promoting the door prize sponsors. Networking and connecting with other Chamber Members is a key component of Chamber membership and marketing your business.
Chamber members, area businesses, and organizations are encouraged to take advantage of this and all networking opportunities. Join the Chamber to reconnect with area businesses and organizations, meet new people, and take advantage of the opportunity to hear from the hosts. In addition, use this opportunity to share information with the Chamber and get to know other local businesses and organizations.
“We invite you to join us for the April Networking event as we reconnect and support one another. You will have a chance to hear from our hosts, connect with fellow Chamber Members, businesses, and organizations, and of course support another Chamber Member. Together we will continue to move the Ticonderoga Area forward. We were happy to be able to host virtual and some aspects of our events during the pandemic but are excited to be welcoming back our Members to in-person opportunities. We look forward to seeing you and connecting not virtually but face to face. A big thank you to the Knights of Columbus for hosting us,” shared Matthew Courtright – TACC President & CEO.
The Knights of Columbus is a fraternal community-focused organization that supports many local projects, St. Marys Church and School, and the community as a whole. The work of the organization is made possible by all volunteers. For more information contact the Knights of Columbus at 518-585-6520.
3 Myths about After Business Mixers & Networking Events BUSTED!
Myth: I don’t have time to go to After Business Mixers.
Busted: You don’t have to be there from 5:30 – 7:00. Stop by for 15 or 20 minutes and make some great new contacts.
Myth: It’s awkward…I won’t know anybody there.
Busted: Ask for a Chamber Ambassador or Board Member when you arrive. These outgoing volunteers will introduce you to the crowd and then you will know lots of people. You can also connect with an Ambassador, Board Member, or TACC Staff Member ahead of time.
Myth: I don’t need to go – I’m on social media.
Busted: There is no substitute for face-to-face networking. People do business with people they know…so come to After Hours and get to know more people.
No excuses – we’ll see you at the next After Business Mixer/Networking Opportunity!
