The Charlotte Chamber of Commerce has improved and streamlined the After Hour Mixers for the upcoming years. These events that have been occurring on a monthly bases have been reduced to a quarterly event. This change took place to allow for each mixer event to better highlight the hosting business. With these improvements a guideline has been established. Below you will find the best practices suggested by the Chamber of Commerce. The launch of these new and improved mixers will take place in April. If your business is interested in hosting an event please contact the office.
Networking Mixer Best Practices
We Suggest:
Invite business associates, top customers and employees to the event.
Offer an incentive, this will encourage attendees to come back for products or services.
Plan a short presentation that will feature your business and/or product.
Offer your choice of food and beverages. An open bar has a positive impact if acceptable in the location.
Please contact the chamber office for suggested and pre-approved catering/bar services available.
Provide a welcoming area for the chamber to use. A chamber associate will provide name tags and collect business cards. These business cards will be used to send thank you emails after the mixer. The cards can also be used if you wish to has a raffle at your event.
