Nixa Chamber highlights business outreach, Nixpo attendance and social reach
Summary
Whitney Ysal of the Nixa Chamber told council that 56% of chamber members have Nixa business addresses, Nixpo drew nearly 4,500 attendees and some ribbon cuttings reached tens of thousands on social media.
Whitney Ysal, speaking for the Nixa Chamber of Commerce on July 28, described the chamber’s partnership with the city and recent outreach activity to local businesses. Ysal said the chamber visited more than half of its businesses in person over the past year and reported membership data showing a local majority.
"Something I thought you might find interesting is 56% of our chamber members have Nixa addresses for their business," Ysal told council, along with other metrics: nearly 4,500 attendees at Nixpo last year and ribbon-cutting videos that reached up to 20,000 views for a single event. She noted constraints on growing events such as Nixpo and Sucker Days because of limited downtown space and school scheduling, and she thanked city staff for collaboration.
