We feel very strongly about assisting local business and industry. We receive hundreds of inquiries throughout the year from individuals living in the area, especially from people who have recently relocated here, and businesses looking for a particular product or service and we refer these people to Alliance members only, which is a valuable membership benefit.

Some of the benefits of Alliance membership:

  • Your business will be listed on our website, ashlandalliance.com, in the Membership Directory section
  • As a new member you will receive a coupon for a free ad in The Independent.
  • You will receive a monthly E-newsletter keeping you up to date on upcoming Alliance activities and opportunities.
  • If you have something special going on at your business and need to get the word out, we have an E-business Spotlight that is sent to all Alliance members at a cost of $75.
  • Our Legislative Affairs Committee monitors bills that may affect our business community and we will inform you of their status.
  • Monthly “Business After Hours” are held at and sponsored by member businesses which gives you the opportunity to network with other business leaders in a social setting.
  • There are several advertising opportunities through the Alliance to include: advertising your business on our Profile Display Case, and in Alliance publications such as our area map, magazine and membership directory.

Ashland Alliance has partnered with Infintech to offer an exclusive group rate program that offers much lower rates through combined group buying power. With lower fees across the board, Ashland Alliance members get the savings that maximize their profits.

Power of the Program — Members enrolled in the program will have access to lower fees, utilizing Cost-Plus pricing. This transparent pricing model will expose the true costs for processing electronic payments, thus eliminating the potential for “after-the-fact” rate increases by the processor. The processor rate you’re offered through the program will remain the same for the duration of your membership.

Program Benefits — Here are just a few of the benefits you will realize with Ashland Alliance’s group rate program.

  • Pre-Negotiated Rates
  • Transparent Pricing Model
  • No Unjustified Cost Increases
  • No Long-Term Contracts or Cancellation Penalties
  • Dedicated, Live Customer Service
  • Discounts on Ancillary Products and Services
  • Discount Health Insurance Rate Opportunity for Chamber Members.

The Kentucky Chamber of Commerce is the only business association in the state advocating for companies of all sizes and industries across the Commonwealth. Enjoy membership discounts as Ashland Alliance members.
