LEADS! This is the main purpose behind a Leads Group. Use this great business tool to get to know other businesses and let them get to know you. Each business member is looking for new customers for YOU!

Each lead passed to you can mean more business, and money, coming in your door. The group also puts on and gets involved with community events that are not only fun, but it's more ways to get your business name in front of large groups of people for a minimal amount of time and money.

Making connections with your other leads group members also offers them more insight into your business, opportunities to trade business ideas and approaches. Be our guest and see how the St. Cloud/Osceola Business Connection Leads Group can help you!

What is a Leads Group?

Leads groups are created to help members of the St. Cloud Chamber of Commerce network and grow their businesses. Essentially, a Leads Group is a business referral network that helps businesses interact and network. As a member of our St. Cloud/Osceola Business Connection Leads Group, you will have the opportunity to develop sources and contacts that can help generate sales for your business

Membership in the Leads Group is composed of people and businesses each representing a different trade or profession so that no otter competing business will be present. Dues are to be paid on an annual basis. Any business interested in joining is allowed two free visits before deciding whether or not to join.

Each member is given the opportunity to give the group information on their company, talk about upcoming events and sales that they are running. Each week we host a different ten minute speaker from the group who shares with us an extended informative presentation on their business

Missions and Goals

The objective of the Group is to increase the members' sphere of influence through their daily roles of professional development. Further objectives are to offer business networking opportunities to non-competing businesses; and to foster and promote a feeling of fraternity and good will among its members and to advance on broad and equitable lines the welfare of each member's business.
