Leads Groups
Building Relationships. Generating Referrals. Growing Local Business.
The Eagle Chamber of Commerce's Leads Groups help Members build trusted business relationships that generate meaningful referrals and long-term business growth.
Two Leads Groups meet monthly, each featuring one Eagle Chamber Member per industry to foster collaboration rather than competition. Meetings provide opportunities to exchange qualified referrals, share business insights, strengthen professional relationships, and learn more about one another's businesses.
Members are encouraged to connect between meetings, knowing that strong relationships lead to stronger referrals. Each meeting also includes a brief Eagle Chamber update to keep Members informed about upcoming programs, evens and opportunities.
Throughout the year, occasional social gatherings bring both Leads Groups together to deepen relationships and expand business development opportunities.
Both Leads Groups are made up of Eagle Chamber Members from different industries in the community. All industries are welcome!
Leads Group Members are available to Eagle Chamber Advantage, Charter, Leadership, Executive, Innovator and Director's Circle Members.
Each of our two Leads Groups meets once a month. Leads Group #1 meets on the second Thursday of the month at 9 am and Leads Group #2 meets on the third Tuesday of the month at 9 am. The meetings last for one hour at the Eagle Chamber Committee Headquarters located on the upper level of the Eagle Information Center at 100 Fairgrounds Rd. in Eagle. Additional social events are outside of this time frame, but are always optional.
1. Be Consistent! Consistency pays off, both for you and the group. Make it a priority to attend every meeting each month. This shows your dedication and dependability to other group members; they need to feel you’ll take care of the referral they’re giving you!
2. Be Patient! Like most prospecting tools, Leads groups take time to develop and to produce results. If you expect to receive a lot of leads (and sales) immediately you may be disappointed. It takes time for other members to get a good feel for you and your business – and to build that trust. Try to keep focus on your long-term results and MOST IMPORTANTLY read #3!
3. Give Referrals: as many referrals as you can! As a general rule, the more referrals you give, the more referrals you will get. Make it a point to listen to family, friends, colleagues and clients for their needs and how to match those needs with someone in your Leads Group. The more referrals you give to others will put you on their radar to provide leads to you! Remember “you must give in order to receive”. It’s a win-win proposition.
Is the Leads Group Right For You?
- You enjoy building long-term business relationships.
- You're committed to giving referrals as well as receiving them.
- You can attend meetings consistently.

Neighbor to Neighbor
A Warm Eagle Welcome
The Neighbor 2 Neighbor Committee rolls out the red carpet for new residents and business owners in Eagle.
Encouraging Community & Inspiring Business Growth
Creating welcome gifts full of local coupons, products and business information, Eagle Chamber committee members go door-to-door to give our new neighbors a friendly Eagle welcome, answer questions and share advice about integrating in the community. Ultimately, the vision of the N2N Committee is that when people move to Eagle they will feel a “warm welcome” upon arrival, that they will want to build a life in our valley, and they can more easily find the resources to do so.
Eagle has an active business community, and we want to help businesses establish local spending habits. One of the best ways to do that is to let our very own residents know what you have to offer! Participation in our N2N program allows businesses to sow those seeds early and continue to grow customer loyalty.
Since 2016, we have delivered hundreds of welcome gifts annually to new Eagle homeowners. If you know of a newcomer to Eagle, if you are interested in meeting your neighbors around town, or including your business in our welcome gifts, please send an email to michelle.morgan@eaglechamber.co and ask how you can get involved.
