Prospective members of the Altus Chamber many times ask, “What can the Chamber do for my business?” All membership dollars in the Altus Chamber of Commerce go toward programs and projects that directly affect the Altus economy. The most beneficial program we can engage in is to increase the number of jobs which will in turn increase the population and increase overall business sales. All Altus Chamber of Commerce programs impact the creation of jobs for our community.
Chamber members derive benefits through networking opportunities and being known in chamber circles. The Altus Chamber of Commerce sponsors and works to organize many beneficial programs. Also, the Altus Chamber of Commerce is the information source for our region and community. We take more than 15,000 phone calls from people who are searching for information on the community. We are averaging over 12 hits a day on our Web site, or 5,000 per year. During an average year your chamber will set up 500 meetings and special events. In a given year, the chamber impacts the lives of 96,970 local citizens in our region and will impact more than 300,000 visitors.
