You Are Solo, But You Don’t Have To Be Alone: Introducing The Henry Hub(SM)
If you are one of the 31,000 solopreneurs, freelancers, or gig workers in Henry County, you know the struggle. You are the fastest-growing segment of our local economy, yet traditional business support systems often overlook you.
We’ve heard you loud and clear. You told us that “generic networking” feels like a waste of time. You told us that exchanging business cards in a crowded room doesn’t pay the bills. You told us that while you value independence, isolation is a real challenge.
It’s time for a change. It’s time to stop swimming in the competitive “Red Ocean” of standard networking and start building something different.
Introducing The Henry HubSM
The Henry Hub is a new membership tier from the Henry County Chamber of Commerce designed exclusively for the independent professional. For just $25 a month (with no large upfront annual fees), we are moving beyond mixers to provide you with a functional ecosystem designed to power your business.
Here is how The Henry Hub is different:
1. A “Personal Board of Directors” (Not a Sales Pit)
We are launching the Core CollectiveSM—confidential peer advisory boards comprised of 6-8 non-competing peers. These aren’t places to pitch your services; they are safe spaces to problem-solve, find accountability, and fight the isolation of working alone.
2. Real Business, Not Just Business Cards
You asked for ROI, and we are building it. In 2026, we will launch the Gig ConnectorSM, a direct digital pipeline where larger businesses can post short-term projects and contracts exclusively for members. This positions your Chamber membership as a source of revenue, not just an expense.
3. Instant Credibility
Trust is the biggest barrier to hiring a freelancer. As a member, you will receive the “Accredited Solopreneur” digital badge for your website and email, leveraging the Chamber’s reputation to instantly prove your credibility to prospective clients.
4. Tangible Resources
Forget the fluff. Your membership includes access to the Solopreneur’s ToolkitSM (contracts, proposals, and templates), a Skills ShowcaseSM program to highlight your skills and to learn from peers.
Be One of the “Founding 150”
We aren’t just launching a membership; we are co-designing a movement.
Ready to build your business, not just run it?

We are meeting in person to launch this movement on Wednesday, January 7, at 9:00 a.m. at the Henry County Chamber of Commerce. We will cover each component of the membership tier. Members and potential members are invited. Join us to meet your future “personal board of directors” and help build the ecosystem you’ve been waiting for.
