Business After Hours
Business After Hours are member-exclusive networking events "after normal business hours" that are designed specifically for our small- to medium-size member companies, who want to expand their network of business contacts, generate new business leads and learn the most effective strategies for networking. We host Business After Hours every month (with exception of the Summer months) and sometimes more then once a month. Members pay $5, and non-members pay $10. For people who didn't register, it's $10 at the door.
Business After Hours hosts have the ability to showcase their business(es). These events are flexible and hosts can partner with other members to showcase themselves. As a host, you will be in charge of setting up the event. You get to pick a Non-Profit Spotlight to do a 50/50 raffle at the event, the host(s) get to tell everyone at the event about their business, and have the option to giveaway some of your business swag. There are many opportunities to market your business through hosting (or partnering with) a Business After Hours; spotlighted in our e-newsletter, spotlighted on Facebook & Instagram through event promotion, handing out or doing giveaways that are related to your business, getting to tell attendees about your business during our "thank you" and giveaway section of the night, and MORE.
These events usually are catered with food and drinks. How you want it to look is up to you. You could have an open bar, cash bar, or we've even done a wine tasting. You can have passed apps, buffet style platters, or a mixture of both. To host an event please email events@nantucketchamber.org
