Member Testimonials
How do area business leaders put their Chamber membership to work? The answers are as varied as the diverse firms we are privileged to count among our membership.
“Our involvement with The Chamber provides us with a wide variety of resources, professional development opportunities and access to a large network of organizations across our community. I have built incredible relationships through The Chamber, both personally and professionally. The Chamber is an absolutely invaluable asset to me.”
Aaron Hill, Coaches Choice Corporate and Athlectic Apparel
“The Chamber provides excellent opportunities to learn from area leaders and improve your own skills. While The Chamber’s training sessions give people access to skill building and knowledge expanding education, it’s possibly even more important to learn from those with whom we work side-by-side on committees. It’s education in action.”
Leann Wolff, Great Outcomes Consulting, LLC
“The leadership program is one of the best volunteer experiences I have had. I grew up in the Fargo Moorhead West Fargo community and I feel it is incredibly important to give back and be part of the community. The leadership program prompted me to want to stay, volunteer and do more in the community.”
Megal Riegel, Union State Bank
“I became a Chamber member because I knew the benefit of networking with other business members in the community was the best way to get the name of my new practice out there!”
Melissa Erdmann, Stellar Healthcare, our 100th member to join during the 2011 Membership Campaign
“I would like to extend my thanks to The Chamber. I recently became a member and received information on the Virtual Expo. I quickly took some time and created my expo online.
After completing the Expo, about two hours later, I received a phone call from a new prospective client that was interested in my products and services. They clearly stated they had been looking over The Chamber’s Web site and saw my Virtual Expo booth. They stated it was amazing and easy to navigate.
After one week, that prospective client turned into a profit of $2,000 for my business! I am so very thankful at the immediate response I am receiving from this amazing tool. Businesses in The Chamber are missing a great opportunity if they do not yet have their Expo booth completed!”
Jacque Shekore, Aflac – Jacque Shekore

"The Shack on Broadway is doing so well because of the hard work and support of my employees, family, friends and a solid customer base that support their local businesses. Our Chamber ribbon cutting was a wonderful occasion to celebrate our new success and our new membership."

“To be part of a business organization that is working hard to help businesses of all sizes is so important. The Chamber allows me to keep myself in the pulse of what is happening in our business community.”
