The Klamath County Chamber of Commerce is comprised of nearly 500 members and is the most active and influential business organizations in Klamath County. Membership in the Chamber means greater access to local and state leaders, business contacts, and customers.

“When consumers know that a small business is a member of the local chamber of commerce, they are 44% more likely to think favorably of it and 63% more likely to purchase goods or services from the company in the future.”

These are just a couple of the statistics published in ” The Real Value of Joining a Local Chamber of Commerce: A Research Study” (PDF, 225k) by The Schapiro Group.
