Testimonials
"Dear Lisa: I wanted to take a minute or two and thank you for the hard work you and your staff put into the Irwindale Chamber of Commerce.I’ve been a member now for two years and found your chamber to be the most progressive of the many chambers I’ve been around in my career.

Aside from the traditional networking that most chambers exhibit with mixers and events, the Irwindale Chamber goes above and beyond to help me drive in business.
"WOW!!! " What a great golf tournament on Thursday. Jan's Towing was honored to be the Title Sponsor of this awesome golf tourney. We hope that we lived up to your expectations and plan to do the same in the future. You, your staff and all the volunteers worked so hard to make this successful and it is well known throughout the San Gabriel Valley as one of the premier tournaments to participate in. In this economic period of time, to sell out a golf tournament is unheard of. But year after year, you succeed. Once again, thank you and the Irwindale Chamber of Commerce for your support and know that we are there for you.

Jan Qualkenbush, President/Owner Jan's Towing May 2010
“Lisa (she always gives credit to her staff) makes the Irwindale Chamber of Commerce what it is today. Due to Lisa's enthusiastic nature this Chamber continues to grow and that is a direct result of Lisa's talents. She gets the job done and has a special talent of recruiting volunteers for her many commitees. I can truthfully say with all the Chambers I have been associated with this one far exceeds the others.” Placed on Linkedin.com December 22, 2008 Brenda Reuter, Athens Services
"Jan's Towing employees and customers are very much enjoying steaming hot, freshly brewed coffee or hot chocolate right here in our lobby. Alfred Gutierrez has provided a great machine with fresh ground beans and the choices of sweetner, creamer, and different combinations. The machine is maintained and serviced by Alfred himself and, if we need him sooner all we have to do is call. The best thing ......this service is totally free to our company with a low cost per cup of a fresh, hot beverages and absolutely no maintainance. Thank you GRAND SLAM COFFEE for a great service!! "Annette-Jan's Towing, May 27, 2008
“I have worked with many Chamber CEOs, but Lisa easily surpasses them all in her accomplishments, intelligence, vision, & other professional skills. What particularly sets her apart is a sincere desire and genuine ability to listen to the needs of her members & colleagues, and her community. She enthusiastically leads cutting edge projects, and at the same time uses her hands-on, down-to-earth-personality to continually help connect people well, and foster solid business growth. When Lisa is behind something, it will happen!” Placed on Linkedin.com February 16, 2008

"On our trip to India, we visited flower shops that was of real value and interest to my wife Rosi. She brought home many new and interesting designs that are native of India. She still corresponds with a lady whom we met in India. Still exchanging pictures and ideas. If you enjoy traveling these two trips have been a wealth of information and knowledge. Not to mention networking. This is networking at it’s finest. Many of our fellow chamber members still order their flowers from us. I hope and pray that the Irwindale Chamber continues to offer these trips because to me it is a win win situation for everyone involved. And after all this is what a merchant is all about, making contacts!" March 27, 2008 Gene & Rosi Medrano, Rancho Duarte Florist
