Chamber Referral Program
The Clearview Chamber now has a referral program in place to attract new members. Do you know of a business that isn’t part of the Chamber but could be? If they join the Chamber upon your referral, you can choose a $20 gift certificate from one of our participating member businesses.
Would you like to be a participating member business for the Clearview Chamber Referral Program? It’s free, and anyone wishing to join the program will be put on the list of businesses that the Chamber can purchase a $20 gift certificate from, which goes to the person who has earned the referral. The gift certificates will be purchased through each business's ShopClearview site.
If you are interested in being in the Referral Program for potential gift certificate purchases, please let us know at clearviewchamber@gmail.com.
