Chamber of Commerce elections

Dear Residents,

In a few days, I would like to announce the election date for a new chairman of the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, I would like to ask those who wish to run for this office, to send a notecard containing:

• A short introduction about yourself and your business here at Lionheart
• Your ideas and visions for the chamber
• A full permission portrait of your avatar

to the profile of Dirk Klees in Second Life.

The provided information and the portrait will be published as a blog post for allowing everyone to acquaint themselves with the candidates before election day.

Deadline for sending in your notecard is Sunday, August 22th 2010.

What are the responsibilities as chairman?

The chamber of commerce is a resident run organization within Lionheart, with the objective to help one another and do efforts to promote your businesses in order to attract customers to your businesses. As such, every member is asked to actively help and collaborate to bring the cause itself forward. The chairman is keeping this group together, organizes meetings, keeps notes of them, and helps coordinating the efforts the group makes together. He/She is also contact person, specially for new members, to help them to orientate themselves within the organization and learn how they can participate in the chamber.

Requirements to become eligible as candidate

The nomination of a chairman for the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce is for a period of six months. For this reason, you should have real intentions to remain a Lionheart merchant for this period, to be a reliable contact person for other merchants who wish to participate, and to be able to devote part of your time to the CoC founded projects.

How do i become member of the CoC?

As Lionheart Merchant (every resident currently owning at least one commercial parcel at Lionheart) you can request an automatic group invite using your parcel’s terminal. Go: My Account > Groups > Chamber.

Stay tuned for a following update on Monday 🙂
