This is a business with independent members. (Examples include: Chamber of commerce, “corporate headquarters”, franchises, trade groups, other associations) Their goal is to further the interests of businesses. Business owners, along with these associations, help to further boost their local or regional business community.
Suggested Options
- Example: ABC Town Chamber of Commerce signs up for their own free Granza networking account, selecting the organization type “chamber of commerce”. They have chosen ABCCHAMBER as their unique promo code. Their goal is to support their existing members and get new ones.
- When creating their viral ad, they limit their ad reach by either distance or zip codes. This will ensure that their ad only shows up within their general service area.
- Within their Granza account, they send a campaign to their members and offer them a free networking account so they can expand their own businesses. Since the ABCCHAMBER promo code is embedded in the signup link, the businesses that sign up will see the chamber’s ad in their dashboard.
- As the chamber businesses use Granza, there is the additional opportunity for the chamber to attract more business owners.
- Existing users should invite new users from anywhere, since they may have customers in your service area. However, your own business ad must only target your actual service area. Example: A single restaurant advertising nationally will generally not be approved. On the other hand, for some businesses, having a statewide or a national presence makes perfect sense. We may provide you with alternate suggestions.
- Know all the ways to invite others to sign up for a free Granza networking account.
