Boyd Stough from Espy Revenue joins us for this episode as he shares his passion to save small businesses by futureproofing them with the tools that Chambers of Commerce have at their disposal.
As you listen to Boyd talk about this subject, you can feel his energy radiate as he explains how Chambers of Commerce are a hedge against the economy. He believes that Chambers are in the right place to protect and prepare small businesses for the future.
One of the examples that Boyd points to is the ideas of standardizing the expectations, experiences, and outcomes for your members. He points out how every Chamber is different in their areas of focus and value propositions and how that can be confusing to the small business owner who is looking for the experience and outcome he/she had with another Chamber as they are now in a new community and they often find that the experience and outcomes are very different.
Boyd help organizations to create a value management infrastructure that will measure primary success metrics which will lead to a more expected or desired outcome for your members.
The parting thought that Boyd shares is that Chambers are the world’s most powerful business resource. He encourages you to look internally and ask yourself, why is this true?
