Frequently Asked Questions

 

From membership to services and events, here are the answers to the questions we hear most often.

The Chamber does a lot to support businesses across Greater Manchester - from networking and training to international trade and policy advocacy. This FAQ covers some of the questions we’re most often asked, but if you can’t find what you’re looking for, our team is always happy to help. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch for more information or personalised support.

 

Do I have to be a member of the Chamber to get involved?

No. It's the Chamber's duty to support all businesses in the region, and we are committed to that. We do offer a free community membership for businesses wanting to engage with the Chamber. If businesses want to upgrade to corporate membership, then they will get access to the full suite of events, membership services and opportunities.

How can I upload my own news and events to the Chamber's website?

It's super simple, you just need to log in to your account (or create one) and you can follow the process in the Member area. The upload process is fairly straight forward, the listing will then go to the Chamber team to approve and it will be live. You can edit and delete your own posts too.

How can I maximise the ROI of membership?

Membership supports each business differently. We'd really recommend getting in touch, and booking a meeting with your Account Manager. They are here to better understand your business, your objectives and challenges, they will then present you with opportunities and services which align with your goals.

Where can I find a list of members?

We don't actually publish a list of members to protect the network, but there's loads of ways we encourage connecting with each other - we've got a LinkedIn group, you get a delegates list from any event you attend and we do offer member to member introductions. We'll help you get connected in a more holistic way.

I think my business is a member, how can I find out?

Just create an account on the website, and we'll flag to you if your business is a member making the sign up process super quick and easy.

Who in my business can use the membership?

Membership is for all members of staff - the more employees that use the membership, the more value you'll get. It's important to engage your team early on, to embed the services in your plan. If you want a 1 to many session from one of our team, just let us know.

How can I cancel my membership?

If you're not happy with your membership, we'd like to understand why and would love the opportunity to fix things.

If you're thinking about cancelling, please let us know, and we can process this for you.

My account has been frozen - why?

If your account has been frozen, it usually means your membership payment is overdue. To get you back up and running, please give us a call on 0161 393 4321 or re-join online.
