Creating local commerce!

Owensboro Buys It! is a Greater Owensboro Chamber of Commerce program designed to connect smaller Chamber of Commerce members that sell products and/or services with the purchasing decision-makers at larger local companies/industry/organizations. There is no cost to Chamber members, only lots of opportunity! Thousands of dollars of business have been created through Owensboro Buys It!.

- The 2012 “Owensboro Buys It!” expo will be held on Thursday, October 25th from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Hines Center.

- “Elevator pitch” training for “sellers” will be held in June. Businesses that have qualified as a “seller” in the past DO NOT need to attend an “elevator pitch” training session. Chamber members that have not participated in the past two years must attend at least one session.

RSVP for June 12 training at noon here.

- Make a Business Connections will be held from 7:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. on Thursday May 17th, June 21st, July 19th, August 16th and September 20th. To qualify to attend the expo, all “sellers” must attend at least two of these Make a Business Connection events to practice your “elevator pitch.” This includes members who participated in 2009, 2010 or 2011.
