About our sponsors:
Connections Promotional Products
Why did you decide to host a Chamber networking event?
This is a wonderful way to be visible to a large number of businesses, not to mention, these events are always great fun.
What is special about your business?
We work with our customers on an individual basis to help them match product their specific marketing plans. Basically, we care about what works.
What’s your favorite part of being a Chamber member and why?
As a business owner, I love being a part of the Chamber for several reasons. The first of which is that you meet other business owners and representatives of businesses and get to interact with them at various meetings throughout the month. The second reason is that we are now connected to the community as a whole, knowing firsthand what is happening in the area and how we might serve our community.
How does your business make a difference in our community?
I hope we are making a difference in our community by serving on two chamber boards and giving back to our non-profit customers.

Mr. Handyman of Chattanooga
Why did you decide to host a Chamber networking event?
I haven’t had the opportunity to be involved in Chamber events lately, so I thought this would be good exposure.
What is special about your business?
Although there are plenty of handymen out there, Mr. Handyman is different. We are woman-owned and operated, and all technicians are employees, not subcontractors. They are all background-checked and drug-tested to provide peace of mind to our customers that the best technicians possible are in their homes.
What’s your favorite part of being a Chamber member and why?
I think the opportunities to interact with other business owners are the best part of Chamber membership.
How does your business make a difference in our community?
In 2015, my staff and I participated in the National Day of Service on Sept. 11 and spent the day voluntarily making repairs and improvements at the Veterans of Foreign Wars hall in Cleveland. This November, we will all be volunteering our time and materials to the Ronald McDonald House for a day.
Held the third Thursday of every month, After Hours brings business people together for networking and refreshments.
