ACCE National Chamber Image Campaign 101 August 13, 2005

“Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.” Do these movie quotes sound remind you of your latest membership drive? “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.” “Show me the money!” “You talking to me?” “I’m going to make him an offer he can’t refuse.”

“What we have here is a failure to communicate.” Many businesses and communities fail to understand the evolving role and contributions of today’s Chamber… “What we have here is a failure to communicate.” Well-positioned brands identify and clearly communicate their core essence to their target audiences.

Chamber Executive Leadership Current Situation Paradigm shifts in both businesses and the community are challenging the traditional model and role of the chamber. Chamber Executive Leadership Companies today are increasingly concerned about education, transportation, healthcare, cultural vitality – areas traditionally outside the chamber purview Chambers of Commerce Businesses Community focus continues to shift from simply improving business success to improving quality of life Community

Chamber Executive Leadership Current Situation Paradigm shifts make positioning the chamber both more difficult and more important to remain vital and relevant. As community issues become business issues, the role of the chamber must evolve beyond that of the voice of business. The model today is no longer linear – all issues are seen as interrelated, and all resources must work towards the broader goals of the community. Chamber Executive Leadership Businesses Chamber Politicians Community

The New Model for Success Creating relevance in the new model requires a different Chamber approach: Traditional Model New Model A membership organization A community organization Membership dues Investing in the community Builds relationships with business Business & community-building relationships What does the community need? What do members want? The priorities of business Focused on the top priorities Success = # of members Success = measurable impact

Requires the definition of the Chamber’s “brand” Program Objective Support the following priority found within the ACCE’s Energizing the Chamber World Strategic Plan: Create and roll-out an image campaign emphasizing the value and importance of chambers of commerce and the chamber management profession to the economic future of the nation. Requires the definition of the Chamber’s “brand”

Creating the Chamber “Brand” Research was designed to help identify a compelling Chamber “brand”: Core essence – Of what the Chamber does and why someone should care. Brand value proposition and brand promises – Address the specific needs of the target audience. Key messages – Create clarity and consistency. The outcome will be the definition of the Chamber’s value proposition as well as relevant and meaningful messages.

Research Methodology Internet survey sent to Chamber executives: Designed to measure level of agreement and importance to membership of 20 key messages Chamber executives had option to send similar survey to their membership 499 completed surveys from executives Total of 795 surveys completed by members, allowing breaks for: # of years of membership # of similar organizations that they belong to Company size based on # of total employees

Executives – Net Rankings 3 20 6 18 8 9 13 4 16 19 1 5 7 85.9 14 11 17 2 15 12 10 10 The average level of net importance for the 20 statements was 80.0%, which is lower than the average level of net agreement of 85.9%. This high level of net agreement could be a cause for concern moving forward.

Members - Net Ratings 85.9 9 19 16 6 3 18 5 8 20 13 4 65.6 1 11 7 2 17 14 15 12 10 The average level of net importance for the 20 statements was 79.8%, which is similar to executives. However, net agreement was just 65.6%, or 24% lower than the executives. Increasing awareness and participation can help improve ratings.
