Our partnership with The Chamber has been a game-changer for our business in Wells
County. Since reconnecting in 2019, we've experienced immense benefits, from valuable
networking and simplified grant processes to essential leadership training. Erin Prible's
onsite Real Colors session added a fun and interactive dimension to our team dynamics.
The Chamber also opened doors to sponsorship opportunities for local events, allowing
us to actively contribute to the community. The impact on our workforce and overall
business health has been remarkable. We are proud to be part of such a well-run and
dynamic team at The Chamber, and we can't thank them enough for the positive
transformation they've brought to our business and the local community.

"I can't express enough how valuable my experience with the Wells County Chamber of
Commerce has been! Erin and Hattie are not just professionals; they have genuine,
immense hearts for our community. Their dedication to local businesses is evident in
everything they do. The events they organize not only promote local businesses but
also provide incredible networking opportunities.
Participating in these events has allowed me to connect with many individuals I
wouldn't have met otherwise. The impact on my business has been substantial, thanks
to the support in marketing, HR, and networking that the Chamber provides. Being part
of an organization that actively supports local small businesses has been not only
beneficial for my own business but also personally rewarding.
If you're looking for comprehensive support in areas like marketing, HR, and
networking, there's no better organization than the Wells County Chamber of
Commerce. I'm grateful for the opportunities it has brought to my business and the
connections I've made!"
