Troy Chamber of Commerce

What Troy Chamber of Commerce does

Troy Chamber of Commerce is a 501(c)(6) nonprofit membership organization founded in October 1959 and headquartered in Troy, Michigan. It serves approximately 725 member companies and a broader network of 5,500+ business professionals across Troy, Oakland County, and Southeast Michigan, providing structured networking, marketing visibility, and business-development programming through events, committees, publications, and digital channels.

Its core offerings center on a four-tier annual membership program (Bronze $375, Silver $775, Gold $1,725, Platinum $3,150) that bundles networking access, advertising credits, event discounts, and member-to-member savings. The Chamber's technology footprint consists of a web-based member portal (cca.troychamber.com) and the Troy Chamber App on iOS and Android, which provide directory browsing, event registration, and member deals; supporting content surfaces include the weekly TC Insider eNewsletter, the bi-weekly Members on the Mic and Mission Impactful podcasts, the Inside Corporate Troy video series, and the Focus Troy blog.

The Chamber's revenue model combines recurring membership subscriptions with transactional event revenue, advertising sales, and ancillary fees such as Certificates of Origin processing ($10 per page for members, $25 for non-members). Go-to-market is sales-led, with a small in-house membership team conducting direct outreach to local businesses in Troy and surrounding communities. The Chamber also maintains strategic partnerships — notably with Walsh College (Preferred Educational Partnership), the City of Troy (joint ribbon cuttings and proclamations), and presenting sponsors Trion Solutions, Austin Benefits Group, and DTE Energy — which extend both its programming capacity and its content distribution reach.
