A new free e-book shows chamber of commerce leaders how to use social media to attract and retain new members. Readers of the book will discover how Frank and his team grew their Chamber of Commerce membership by 100% in the space of 18 months using basic social media practices.

Here’s what Chris Brogan, one of the top bloggers, social media gurus, and new marketers in the world today says about Frank in his excellent foreword to Frank’s book: “Frank here has written up what he feels you need to know as leaders of chambers and associations... He wants you to succeed. He knows the world will be better if you feel educated and ready to take it on. So with that, I say, ‘Learn. Dare to try this stuff. And join the new digital channel.’ There's gold in these here hills.”
Frank shares how to use social media to turn a Chamber into a business funnel that new business will flow into and stay there. He also shares how to use social media to tell a story that resonates with audiences. He discusses how to use social platforms, and a blog to build trust and credibility with potential members.
