The Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE) has awarded Effingham County Chamber Membership Director, Becky Brown, the Dana Ketterling Lifetime Sales Achievement Award. The award recognizes career sales achievement, with awards based on the total number or total dollar amount of chamber membership sales. Brown earned recognition in the Silver category for achieving 750 transactions or $300,000 in sales in chamber memberships throughout her career.

Brown was recognized for her achievement at the 2025 ACCE Annual Convention, presented by Comcast Business, in Philadelphia on Wednesday, July 23.

ACCE annually presents this award in memory of Dana Ketterling, ACCE’s resource development officer, who was a gifted membership professional and champion of chambers of commerce and the communities they serve.
