Mammoth Lakes Chamber Of Commerce

What Mammoth Lakes Chamber Of Commerce does

Mammoth Lakes Chamber of Commerce is a non-profit membership organization serving the Mammoth Lakes and Mono County business community in California's Eastern Sierra. It operates as the official advocate and primary resource hub for local enterprises, providing business development support, government advocacy, networking events (Power Lunch, Business After Hours, Community Coffee, Women in Business, Delve into DEI), training programs (customer service, HR), and community-building events such as the annual Business Excellence Awards Gala and 4th of July Parade. Its most differentiated programs address the acute workforce housing crisis driven by 59.4% seasonal/vacation housing, including a Workforce Housing matchmaking platform that has registered 1,207 renters and produced 70 successful matches between homeowners and workforce tenants.

The Chamber's business model is subscription-recurring membership dues across six tiers (Non-Profit $174, Essential $289, Classic $575, Premier $1,155, President's Circle $3,465, and Civic for non-business individuals), billed annually with optional monthly/quarterly payment plans. Members gain bundled benefits including Snowcreek Athletic Club discounts, directory listings, e-newsletter advertising, job board postings, Workforce Housing Program access, CalChamber benefits, and eligibility for industry-specific associations (Restaurant, Lodging, Events). Go-to-market is sales-led and event-driven: direct outreach, signature events, and partner channels (Eastern Sierra NOW, Mammoth Lakes Tourism, Town of Mammoth Lakes, Mono County) drive member acquisition and retention. Technology infrastructure consists of GrowthZone membership management software powering the Member Information Center portal, business directory, event registration, and job board — there is no proprietary technology product.

Operationally, the Chamber is a 1-10 employee organization led by President & CEO Brianna Goico (appointed June 2024, succeeding retiring Executive Director Ken Brengle). In September 2024 the team completed a strategic planning retreat producing Strategic Goals 2025-2028 focused on Business Champion, Thriving Community, and Delivering Value pillars. The organization generates revenue primarily from membership dues supplemented by event-related income, advertising packages, and partnership-related value-add programs, and operates from its headquarters at 2520 Main St., Mammoth Lakes, California.
