I was fortunate enough last week to attend a Dulles Regional Chamber event.  I think it was their monthly mixer for February.  For a while I have been hearing that Dulles is the friendliest chamber to (very) small businesses.

I have to say that they lived up their reputation in every way.  I felt welcomed as a guest and all the ambassadors were super helpful in introducing me to the types of people.  I made some new connections that look like they will turn into lasting business.  That’s what it is all about in the end.

To make a short blog post even shorter I will say that IF I join a chamber this year it will be Dulles.  It is nice to see some one looking out for the (very) small guys in business.  Far too many other organizations have well deserved reputations for looking out only for the big guys and their hefty membership fees.
