Sedona Chamber Ambassador Program
The Sedona Chamber of Commerce Ambassador program is part of the Chamber's business outreach efforts. By giving of their time to help businesses grow and achieve successful results, Ambassadors contribute to the overall economic health and growth of the Sedona business community.
Sedona Chamber Ambassadors are goodwill representatives. They are professional liaisons to the business community and strengthen the Chamber's relationship to its members and the community. Because all ambassadors are active members of the Sedona Chamber of Commerce, they provide an important member-to-member link, understanding and responding to member needs as only another member can.
Each month Ambassadors dedicate time to interact with other business entrepreneurs, professionals, volunteers and other individuals on behalf of the Sedona Chamber of Commerce in person and by telephone. Ambassadors encourage members to become involved and help them to learn more about Chamber programs and initiatives. Ambassadors take new members under their wing, foster communication between the chamber staff and members and generally act as the eyes and ears of the Chamber in the community. Ambassadors also represent the Chamber at networking events, business meetings and other functions.
