We have been using Chris as our insurance agent for a little while now, and are very happy with his service. He and his team are always friendly and professional. He always takes the time to walk you through your options and explain everything thoroughly.

Recommendation for Bradley Behrens with Northwestern Mutual

To whom it may concern:

It is a true pleasure to write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Bradley Behrens with Northwestern Mutual in Normal, Illinois. For over ten years, Bradley has worked with the mission of helping people reach financial security.

Although Bradley’s goal is to help people reach financial security, he knows financial security means different things to everyone, which is why he works with each individual client to determine what it means to them and then create a plan of action to make that happen. His services include a variety of insurance, investments, and planning, such as retirement planning and education funding.

We recently switched our investments to Northwestern Mutual and are very happy with our decision. It’s easy to see that Bradley genuinely loves what he does. He is always a pleasure to deal with and responds to all communication in punctually.

Whether you’re looking to invest, or planning for your retirement, I highly recommend Bradley Behrens at Northwestern Mutual. With Bradley, you will be on your way to achieving your financial goals in no time!

Sincerely,

David Dow

To whom it may concern:

I am more than happy to write this letter of recognition on behalf of a true business professional, Marc Poirier. Based in Central Illinois, Marc Poirier is the highly skilled and talented president and general manger of Abbey Placements.

Founded in 1982, Abbey Placements is a locally founded, second-generation staffing service specializing in hourly skilled labor and administrative jobs.

Recommendation for Kamelia Fisher at the Cuyahoga Falls Chamber of Commerce

To whom it may concern:

It is with great pleasure and deep respect that I write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Kamelia Fisher. Based in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, Kamelia Fisher is the experienced and talented executive director at Cuyahoga Falls Chamber of Commerce.

The Cuyahoga Falls Chamber of Commerce was founded in the fall of 1926 by a group of businessmen and property owners. Over the years, it has grown to include more than 300 business members who all work together to build a healthy economy and improve the quality of life in Cuyahoga Falls.

Kamelia takes a rare approach to chamber directorship – being involved first-hand to help her members make connections with each other. Whether actively mixing at events or referring members to each other through phone calls, she is engaged with her membership and committed to making her chamber a success.

While I have only known Kamelia for a short time, I have quickly come to know her as the true professional and genuinely kind-hearted person she is. She has been an exemplary spokesperson for the chamber and gave me a first-rate experience getting to know how the chamber functions, as well as helping me make personal introductions to members.

I recommend Kamelia Fisher and the Cuyahoga Falls Chamber of Commerce with the utmost confidence to anyone looking to connect with other businesspeople and make a difference in their community. Kamelia and the rest of the organization will go above and beyond to help you build relationships that will help your business reach its full potential.

She is very welcoming when it comes to new members to the chamber and a great source of insight for how to best utilize the chamber’s services. She also has a great understanding of the needs of her business and non-profit members, which is due to her own business ownership experience and time serving non-profits.

I highly recommend Missy McWhorter and the entire Fairlawn Area Chamber of Commerce to anyone looking to get active in the community and connect with other businesses. With Missy and her team, you can count on the direction you need to grow your business and expand your professional network.
