Membership Services Division
Like most Chambers across the country, the Cleveland County Chamber is comprised mostly of small business members.  In fact, small businesses make significant contributions to our local and national economy.   According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, they employ more than 50 percent of the private work force, generate half of the nation's gross domestic product, and are the principal source of new jobs in the U.S. economy.  The Chamber is committed to providing these member businesses with a variety of opportunities to increase productivity, expand networking prospects, and promote a healthy Cleveland County economy.  Many of these business leaders take full advantage of both their membership in the Chamber and other resources in the community.   The Membership Services Division is charged with member relations and support.  The Vice President of Membership Services is the staff liaison for this division, which is supported by key leadership within the Ambassadors Club, the Special Events committee, the Membership Development Committee, and the Small Business Council.  Recruitment and retention efforts are a function of this division, along with group benefits and monthly networking events.
