Western Association of Chamber Executives (W.A.C.E.)
Strategic Financial Leadership for W.A.C.E. Members
A Strategic Partnership. Two Powerful Benefits.
Greater Value for Your Members. New Non-Dues Revenue for Your Chamber.
Through a strategic partnership with the Western Association of Chamber Executives (WACE), CxORE is helping chambers address two important opportunities: connecting their members with experienced financial leadership and creating a new source of non-dues revenue.
The partnership is built around a simple idea. Chambers have earned the trust of the businesses they serve. CxORE brings experienced financial executives and accounting professionals who can help those businesses navigate challenges, identify opportunities, and grow.
Together, we can help more businesses thrive while creating additional revenue opportunities for the chambers that support them.

Helping Your Members Thrive
Thrive. To Grow or Develop Vigorously.
We love that definition because it captures what we believe every business deserves the opportunity to do.
Not simply survive. Not just maintain the status quo. But grow, develop, and realize its full potential.
Of course, thriving doesn't happen by accident.
Running a business requires leaders to make important decisions every day, often without the financial clarity, perspective, or capacity they need. Even the most experienced executives can benefit from another set of eyes, someone who can ask different questions, identify what may be overlooked, and help illuminate the path forward.
We call this The Missing Lens.
At CxORE, we believe every leader deserves access to experienced financial professionals who can help them see what's ahead, solve problems, and turn opportunities into results.
Through this partnership, chambers can make that expertise available to their members, helping them:
Navigate uncertainty and anticipate financial challenges.
Identify opportunities and constraints to growth.
Strengthen cash flow, profitability, and financial performance.
Gain reliable financial information and strategic foresight.
Make informed decisions with greater confidence.
Reclaim valuable time to work on their business rather than in their business.
Our fractional CFOs have experience supporting organizations ranging from early-stage companies to large enterprises, across industries and stages of growth.
Your relationships. Our expertise. Greater impact for your members.
Create a New Source of Non-Dues Revenue
A Partnership That Creates Value for Everyone.
Your chamber already has the relationships and the trust of its members. CxORE brings the financial expertise and capacity to help those members thrive.
Together, we can create greater value for your members and new revenue opportunities for your chamber, without adding to your team's workload.
Through the WACE partnership, participating chambers earn a one-time referral fee when a business or nonprofit member they introduce engages CxORE.
Referral Partnership Economics
$2,500: For qualifying recurring engagements below $25,000 per month.
$5,000: For qualifying recurring engagements of $25,000 per month or more.
The best partnerships make it easier for everyone to succeed.
Your chamber continues doing what it does best: building relationships, connecting businesses with resources, and strengthening the communities you serve.
CxORE takes responsibility for the financial expertise, client engagement, and service delivery.
How the Partnership Works
Three Simple Steps to Get Started
Step 1: Become a CxORE Chamber Partner
Schedule an introductory conversation with our team. We'll learn more about your chamber, discuss the needs of your members, and walk through the partnership opportunity.
Step 2: Connect Your Members
Introduce CxORE through the communication channels and relationships you've already established, including newsletters, email communications, events, and direct referrals.
We'll provide information and resources to make those introductions easy.
Step 3: Create Value and Generate Revenue
CxORE handles discovery, client engagement, and service delivery. Your members gain access to experienced financial professionals, and your chamber earns a referral fee when a qualifying engagement begins.
It's that simple.
Financial Solutions That Help Businesses Thrive
Financial Foresight. Consistent Execution.
Financial information should do more than tell leaders what happened last month. It should help them understand where they are, anticipate what's ahead, and make informed decisions about where they're going.
That's the perspective and support CxORE brings to every engagement.
Fractional CFO Leadership
Our fractional CFOs bring years of experience helping organizations navigate challenges, strengthen financial performance, and plan for growth.
They work alongside business leaders to improve financial visibility, develop forecasts, evaluate opportunities, and identify the financial and operational factors influencing results.
Whether an organization is navigating a period of uncertainty, preparing for growth, or simply needs more experienced financial leadership, our CFOs help turn financial information into insight and action.
Back Office Accounting
Reliable financial information starts with consistent execution.
Our accounting professionals help organizations manage essential financial operations, including bookkeeping, reconciliations, financial reporting, and accounting processes.
The goal is straightforward: give leaders confidence in their financial information and greater capacity to focus on the future.
We work in it, so your members can work on it.
Strengthen Your Own Chamber
Your Chamber Deserves the Same Financial Advantage.
Chambers spend a great deal of time helping their members solve problems and pursue opportunities. But chamber executives also face financial and operational challenges of their own.
In addition to serving as a referral partner, WACE member chambers can engage CxORE directly for fractional CFO leadership and back office accounting services.
Our professionals become an extension of your team, helping strengthen financial operations, improve visibility, and create more capacity for chamber leadership to focus on serving members and advancing the organization's mission.
An Exclusive WACE Partnership Benefit: Executive Coaching
Investing in the Leaders Behind the Organizations
Great organizations are built and sustained by great leadership.
As part of the WACE and CxORE partnership, WACE member chambers and their business members that engage CxORE receive a complimentary one-on-one executive coaching session each quarter throughout their engagement.
CxORE's executive coaches are highly regarded, experienced C-suite executives who have led for-profit businesses, government agencies, and nonprofit organizations of all sizes.
They bring practical leadership experience, strategic perspective, and a firsthand understanding of the challenges executives face.
These sessions give leaders dedicated time to step away from daily demands, gain fresh perspective, work through challenges, and focus on the opportunities ahead.
Because strengthening an organization also means investing in the leader responsible for its success.
Hear From Leaders We've Supported.
We believe the best measure of our work is the experience and results of the organizations we serve.
Our clients count on us to bring experienced leadership, solve problems, strengthen operations, and help their organizations move forward.
But we'd rather have them tell you about their experience.

Let's Create Greater Impact Together
Stronger Chambers. Stronger Businesses. Thriving Communities.
Every business leader has a vision for what they want to accomplish. Sometimes, what stands between where they are and where they want to go is a perspective they haven't considered, a question they haven't asked, or an opportunity they haven't yet recognized.
That's the value of finding the missing lens.
Through the WACE and CxORE partnership, your chamber can help members gain the financial foresight, experienced leadership, and operational support they need to move forward with confidence.
And while helping your members thrive, your chamber can create an additional source of non-dues revenue.
We believe that's a partnership worth exploring.
Your relationships. Our expertise. Greater impact for everyone.
