Chamber of Commerce Increases Revenue by 20 Percent With Seamless Mobile Solution

Since 1911, the Bellingham/Whatcom Chamber of Commerce has acted as the voice of the business community in Whatcom County, Washington. It engages in lobbying and advocacy on behalf of its 800 members. The Chamber needed a cost-effective solution to help its employees stay in touch and increase productivity. In 2007, IT solutions provider Hardlines Company encouraged the Chamber to participate in the beta program for Windows Small Business Server 2008, which included using Windows Mobile 5.0 and Windows Mobile 6 devices and upgrading to the 2007 Microsoft Office system.
