January 2020 Recap

The 27th Annual Florida Sheriff's Youth Ranches "BBQ".

"Member Spotlight"
Sue Skirvin
Even after 40+ years with Tupperware, I can honestly say “I Love What I Do”! My goals and my ways of doing business have changed numerous times over the years, but the people and the product and my passion for both have grown over the years!
    Starting out for the product discount and extra income and then having the flexible “work from home” schedule be most important as we were raising our family to now the passion of sharing how to eat healthy while saving time and money be in the forefront. 
Yes, we still do Tupperware parties and that’s the Fun part; when I work, it’s a party!! Hosts still receive Free & Half Priced products that way and the host and guests get to socialize and enjoy themselves for an hour or so. Our business is a lot about relationships! Many of my hosts, guests, and salesforce members became my friends because of Tupperware but have remained my friends because of the relationships we’ve made over the years! 
 I also love to help young moms start their own businesses allowing them to work from home while raising their kids. And today, that feature of our business, work from home, means more than it did 40+ years ago! Tupperware has partnered with the National Parks Foundation and the company Loop which will provide zero waste on products you probably have in your home right now! Anyone can join Tupperware for the product discount, the PT or FT income, or even a career change that comes with a company car! You can take your gig on the road if you like to travel or to meet new people and you can join for as little as $15! Helping others see their potential and be successful entrepreneurs is also something I love about my business! 
 So, in summary, we are not “just plastic bowls”!  Tupperware is celebrating 75 Years this year and some of the innovative products like a Grill for your Microwave coupled with our Lifetime Warranty have helped us to continue changing lives and providing solutions around the world! #tupperware #letsconnect #notimetowaste #lovewhatyoudo #Tware1.com
Dear Members,

Your membership in the Sebastian River Area Chamber of Commerce is greatly appreciated!

We have mailed you the 2021 decal for you to proudly display, indicating that you are an active member of our chamber.

As an added incentive (and for fun) for you to display it prominently, we will have our “Decal Detectives” on assignment in our business community looking for them. When they see your 2021 decal, you will be entered into a drawing for a prize.

If you are a home-based business, we encourage you to stop by the chamber between 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, or show us at one of our events how creatively you have displayed your decal.

Be sure to keep us updated on your information – membership@sebastianchamber.com and your activities – pwilliams@sebastianchamber.com.

Please call us if you have any questions or if we can help you in some way.
Referrals for potential new members are always welcome and if they join you get rewarded!

Thank you for your membership, all you are doing for our chamber, and our community.
 
With gratitude,
 
Nancy C. Johnson
Member Services Coordinator
