CHAIR MESSAGE
Lee Ernst
The Lee Ernst Group at eXp Realty
What do I expect in 2023? I am expecting to have bigger turnouts at our chamber events. We will continue to host our iconic events and add some new ones. Keep an eye out for our newsletters, e-blasts and posts on the Chamber's social media pages for the latest updates and news. Feel free to reach out to the Chamber if you have an idea or want to volunteer for an event.
I am also expecting more leads amongst our members, and to have newfound membership growth for the Lisle Area Chamber. We have momentum and timing on our side. Let me explain, regarding our own personal development, most have found balance living with ovid. This correlates with getting out in public and getting ourselves out there more often than the last few years.
I am not alone with my optimism. Jaime Dimon of JP Morgan Chase has downgraded his original thoughts on the imposing recession. The association of realtors own chief economist sees the demand of housing and low inventory in our market as a fair balance for buyers and sellers.
Regardless of what 2023 brings, when in uncertain times, the motivated small business owners come out and take action. Joining the Lisle Area Chamber of Commerce is one thing they will do to find new business. If you are a small business and looking to expand your reach, join the Lisle Area Chamber now. And for all of you, I hope you find your optimism and make 2023 a great year!
