Testimonials

Hear what our Members are saying…

“Being a member of the Chamber has opened doors that would not have been opened otherwise. The Chamber gives you the opportunity to network with people that normally you would not see. I have been able to meet contacts inside a corporation that normally I wouldn’t have gotten past the gate keeper. I have been able to get business strictly because I was a Chamber member.” -Bob Hecker, Owner of Uniformity.

“The Chamber has provided a vital boost to our employee benefit package which by using the cost savings from the health plan, enabled us to expand our benefits to include dental, vision and life insurance.” -Kenneth H. Zezulka, Owner and President of Telerecovery.

“After the storm(Hurricane Katrina), my office had a tornado take a good part of the roof off and I had to work out of my house for 16 months. During that time the chamber offered me the conference room as a professional place to meet my clients instead of meeting at my house or at their business that could’ve been damaged as well. That was crucial during the transition period in getting back into my office again.  What is that worth? It’s immeasurable.” -Jack L. Sloan, Certified Financial Planner at Sloan Financial Services.

“I meet at least two to three people at every event that I can do business with. I am glad I joined.” -Charles Biondo, President of Security Shield Assurance.

“It was natural to want to get involved with the Jefferson community. Joining the Chamber is a way to get to know other business professionals in the industry. There is no need to reinvent the wheel when you have that resource at your fingertips.” -Charlee Williamson, Executive Vice President of the Brennan Group.

“I received a telephone call from a new potential customer and she mentioned that she heard about us from ShopJeffersonNow.com. Thank you so much for the new lead. Every little bit helps.” -Bonnie G. Rousset, Avondale Self-Storage.

“I wanted to thank everyone at the Jefferson Chamber for helping me receive the SBA Award! It really was a pleasure receiving the award… and going to the Governor’s Mansion. Thanks Again!” -Bob Hartman, LA Workforce Commission and the 2011 Small Business Administration Veterans Business State Champion of the Year.
