By Jim Boyd, Executive Director of the Cook County Chamber of Commerce - September 21, 2020


We know that 2020 has been an extraordinary, difficult, roller coaster of a year for most Cook County businesses. As we now begin the transition to fall and winter, roughly six months into dealing with the Covid pandemic, the Chamber leadership would very much like to understand how each of you is faring. Are you confident heading into the winter, or are you fearful of your ability to survive until next spring? How does your financial situation compare with previous years?

To help us understand how you are doing -- and thus prepare us to be better advocates on your behalf -- we've prepared a short survey that we'd like you to take -- and to share widely with every Cook County business owner and manager, whether members of the Chamber or not. The survey does not ask for specific financial information. We do intend to share the results with county and state officials so they, too, can better understand the financial situation on the ground here in Cook County. 

Survey Monkey says the survey should take about three minutes to complete. We hope you will take it now, and provide the link to other business people you know. Here is the survey link:
