Connect for Lunch
One Good Connection Is Worth 1,000 Business Cards
When you enroll in your Chamber's Connect 4 Lunch program, you will be invited each week to have lunch with three other business people. For a nominal fee — just a little more than what you'd leave for a tip — you can make up to 100 new personal connections over the course of a year: real connections that can lead to real results for your business.

Here's How It Works
When you join the Salem Chamber's Connect 4 Lunch program, each Wednesday you'll receive an email from Connect 4 Lunch asking you if you'd like to go to lunch the following week. If you click "yes" on the email, the following Monday you'll receive another email with the names of three other business people like yourself with whom you'll be having lunch. The email will also have the name of the restaurant and a link to a map with directions, a link to profiles describing your lunch mates, and their phone numbers (just in case you'll be arriving late).
On the day of your lunch, at noon, when you arrive at the restaurant, you'll find that your reservation has already been made for you in advance. There's nothing for you to do except show up (the cost of your meal is not included). You'll have an hour or more at each lunch to get to know your fellow lunch mates and for them to get to know you and your business. After lunch, you may now have new customers, referrals, and new ideas for your business based on wisdom gained from others at your table.
And, we'll keep track of your contacts for you. You'll have your own private Contact Manager in your personal Connect 4 Lunch account. Connect 4 Lunch is relaxed, comfortable and personal, and it happens at lunch — not after hours, when work is over and most of us would rather be at home.
Benefits You Can Look Forward To:
· Build up to 100 new personal business relationships per year.
· Experience a relaxed way to grow your business in a comfortable social setting.
· Connect 4 Lunch occurs at a convenient time in your schedule — you were probably going to eat lunch anyway.
· We take care of the scheduling and the restaurant reservation — you just show up.
· Your inexpensive subscription pays for itself quickly, with new clients and referrals.
· You'll get out of the office and add variety to your work life — new friends, local restaurants, fresh ideas, great connections and opportunities for new referrals.
Begin enjoying these benefits as soon as possible. Your first two months are free, and you can cancel at anytime.
