Sorry, what will joining a national chamber of commerce make me see more clearly?

Please don't take it personally.

Chambers of commerce do not exclude any business people who take themselves seriously.

Are bankers not familiarised with metaphors? Only "jog on" works? That would be rather sad.

Sorry I have no idea what you mean. What are the benefits?

It is not easy to find a book on chambers of commerce. But the benefits are made clear on their website.

Access to information, networking, speed of advice.

Admittedly, it is the big league, it's not simple, it's not cheap. You're there if you want to make money.

We translators have a lot to learn about the business and practical aspects of our activity, about how we can improve, but I have no intention to lecture anyone.

Instead, you might be in a better position.
