Marketing and Sponsorship Opportunities
The Chamber provides a variety of targeted marketing opportunities that allow members to build valuable, long lasting professional networks by meeting other like-minded individuals from the local business community.
To this end, CCFSB organizes events, luncheons, and seminars including the New Member Welcome (free lunch for potential new members) and the Member Appreciation After Five Mixer. We also encourage the use of the Chamber's M2M Special Offers Program (special rates/fees for Chamber businesses by other members).
Your membership dues automatically give you a FREE listing in our online membership directory.
Here are a few other advertising/sponsorship opportunities to consider:
- Enhanced Online Membership Directory Listing

Directory Banner Advertising
Design a banner and have it appear on every page throughout the site! May include one link to a PDF, video or webpage of the advertiser’s choice and hosted on their network. A banner ad is an opportunity to boost your brand visibility within the Saint-Boniface business community. Only three side banner ads appear at a time so your company will have a prominent presence on the CCFSB website.
The Chamber only allows 12 advertisers on a banner at one time.
Ads are rotated randomly; a new ad is displayed per each page visit.
- Rectangle : 122px X 242px
- Square : 122px X 122px
There are three different options available to advertisers(this is for consecutive weeks only):
Rectangle : 122px X 242px
- 13 weeks at $300.00 (one link only)
- 26 weeks at $500.00 (one link change at 13 weeks)
- 52 weeks at $900.00 (two link changes; one at 17 weeks, the other at 34 weeks)
Square : 122px X 122px
- 13 weeks at $200.00 (one link only)
- 26 weeks at $400.00 (one link change at 13 weeks)

Major Annual Events
Each major annual event provides its own unique sponsorship opportunities; the sponsorship tiers for each event are carefully crafted by the Chamber administration. This formula includes consideration of event objectives, size, overall cost to organize, and other specific event needs.
The CCFSB is always interested in partnering with member firms on in-kind sponsorships to the benefit of our fellow members.
Many of our principal sponsors return each year. What better proof that event sponsorship provides a great return on your investment! However, in the case of certain events, the CCFSB Chamber reserves the right to refuse a returning sponsor.
Major Annual Events
• Festival du Voyageur Luncheon, February
• AGM & Extraordinary Meeting for Members, usually May or TBD
• Member Appreciation After Five Mixer (sponsor in the form of hosting the event, date to be determined, 1 or 2 X yr)

Soirée gauloise(annual fundraising event for the CCFSB, supper, dance, silent auction), usually October or November;
See rate card
The evening consists of a night of fun and an opportunity to network at a social event. The event includes supper, live band, silent auction and a few surprises!
This event has been held now for two consecutive years and has been very successful. The CCFSB was created in 1953 and has, since its inception, been solely operated by volunteers. The fundraising event will eventually allow us to hire an executive director to help the Chamber further evolve to better meet its members’ needs.
