Business After Hours is the perfect networking event. It’s a great way to familiarize more people with your establishment. The Programs Committee can help you plan the event if you wish.

Benefits to Hosting an After Hours

– Exposure: Get 20 – 50 people through your doors
– Free publicity: Announcements go out to the Windsor Journal, the Chamber News email newsletter, the Chamber online community calendar, the Metro Hartford online events calendar, etc.

Chamber members and their guests arrive around 5:30 PM and network over hors d’oeuvres provided by the host. The Chamber’s Program Committee chairperson then calls the event to order and attendees introduce themselves and briefly describe their business affiliation. The hosts offer a presentation about their business and guests tour the facility if appropriate. Winning raffle tickets are drawn and the networking continues. Don’t forget to have your brochures and business cards ready.
