Why I Value My Chamber Partnership! Donna Beaman, Cheyenne Light, Fuel & Power CREATED FRIENDSHIPS “Being a member of the 2014-2015 Leadership Cheyenne class helped me cultivate relationships with people in businesses I would not have otherwise contacted. My fellow participants offer wonderful support to each other in good times and bad. I have forged friendships with people outside my normal sphere of influence. This has helped me integrate more fully into the Cheyenne community. Interacting casually with industry leaders during Business After Hours and other events has been of tremendous value to me personally, as well as my company. The Greater Cheyenne Chamber of Commerce is truly the voice of business. It can be trusted to advocate for policies that are in the best interest of the business community. Thank you for all you do for Cheyenne and those who do business here.” Raymond & Cindy Mefford, Chick-fil-A Dell Range USED RESOURCES “In 2013 when we had a sales goal we needed to meet, I called the Chamber to see how they could help. The Chamber Staff kindly came out to brainstorm with us. They helped execute the plan and we saw results. The Chamber has been there for support anytime, even when we had the slightest question. They have never made us feel embarrassed or bothered but always ready to help with open arms. Hats off to our wonderful Greater Cheyenne Chamber of Commerce!” PG 44 l Partnership Bob Jensen, RJBC, LLC, “Business Advisory Consultancy” UNDERSTANDS VALUE “One of the first investments I made when I started RJBC was in a Chamber membership.
