Ambassador Committee

CCSNJ's Ambassador Committee plays an important role in attracting and retaining Chamber members. Ambassadors supplement the Chamber staff's efforts in outreach to new members, to ensure that all members feel welcomed at Chamber events, and to educate members on how to maximize their memberships.

Barson-Hala-2022

Ambassador Tip

Great networking is relationship building. It requires care, connection, and consistency. Each interaction is an opportunity to connect with and be of service to others and to build your personal and professional brand. Ask questions, be genuine, be willing to be human, and remember that each one of us was the new person in the room (virtual or otherwise) at one time!

Fitzgerald-C-HS

Ambassador Tip

You get out of networking and being a chamber member what you put into it.  If you show up to events, meet people, and build genuine relationships with others you will see the magic happen. It takes time, but be patient, be persistent and be positive. Have fun out there!

R-Horner-HS

Ambassador Tip

I have been a member of this Chamber for 25 years. It is the single most important resource I have for developing new clients in my business. The way it can become that for your business is by taking the time to develop connections here. Go to as many events as you can. I typically attend at least 1 per week. Don’t try to pick what you think will be a good event. They are all potentially events where you might meet your next best client.

Kennedy-Bob-HS

Ambassador Tip

If you have the attitude “Service to others without expectations”, you will have a long and successful career. Be the partner that is always connecting and making the introductions. Networking is all about creating relationships and how to be a resource. Not everyone will be the right fit for what you do, but if you bring value to the table, they will find someone to introduce you to. As an Ambassador of CCSNJ, I hope to make the introductions to help grow your successful network. ABC= Always Be Connecting.

Andy Lindemuth

Ambassador Tip

When I’m working a room at a networking event, I always use the 3 foot rule. Whenever someone is within 3 feet of me, I am required to introduce myself and shake their hand.

J-Martin-HS

Ambassador Tip

Personally and professionally, we are all part of group emails, texts, and chats and sometimes our replies are just intended for the primary sender. Please take the extra few moments to reply back to just that person and read your response just one more time before you hit send. The other recipients may not want multiple replies inundating their inbox and replies that are just meant for the sender can go out to "all" and could cause problems down the road. Even worse, they could be re-posted, re-tweeted on social media without any context or rebuttal. Once something is out there, it is out there! So next "reply"; think, respond, review and send it only to those who you want to read it.

Ambassador Tip

Just say hello and be yourself.  Relationships are initiated one question at a time so be curious and seek opportunities to learn the stories of others.  If you come to an event with a group, sit at different tables so that you have the chance to meet new people each time.

Make quality connections. This means taking the time to get to know a couple of people well at each event and then building on those relationships over time. You develop a stronger network this way.
