Julie Lovely Walden – Advance Marking & Sign

“I have been a member of the chamber for a couple of months. Signing up was really easy and I have already gained some business as a benefit! The chamber was so gracious to trust me with their awards for the gala they had in May. Zenovia has also referred business to me with another member as well! A couple other things I have also enjoyed is that they have the new member highlight on the newsletter and you can click on the new members business name and it takes you right to their web site. I also feel very well informed on upcoming events and opportunities to get involved, which can also lead to more business and referrals. I cannot express how valuable my membership with Kent Chamber is to me. Our business is local and family run. Referrals are how I receive most of my business, so I am very grateful that is just as important to them as it is to me”.

Thank you Kent Chamber for having me in your organization!

Mike Miller – Valley Bank of Kent Chamber

The Kent business community is one of the most dynamic in the State of Washington. With over 1,800 businesses with sales of $500,000 to $50 Million and over 70,000 workers, the Kent commercial base is equal to both Auburn and Renton combined. The Kent Chamber of Commerce is doing a great job of representing the various interests in our business community with the City of Kent, King County and the State of Washington. That is why every business in Kent should be a member of the Kent Chamber of Commerce!

Membership in this great organization has provided my business with excellent educational and networking opportunities. The friendships formed and business connections gained are priceless. I have found the Chamber staff, and other business owners to be warm and highly supportive. I truly love the Kent Chamber of Commerce!

Christina Palstring – Pegasus Northwest

As a younger professional the Chamber has given me a better perspective of how important it is to get involved and discuss the issues that we are seeing all over Kent, not just in our office of business. Education, Transportation and taxes affect all aspects of what we do and it is nice to know that I have the Kent Chamber as a resource on anything I have questions on. I also know that they will advocate for me when it makes business sense. My experience with the Kent Chamber and networking has proven to be priceless for the two years Pegasus NW have been members.

Lisa Voso – The Voso Impact

My membership with the Kent Chamber has resulted in increased exposure for my business and to learn from other business owners through the ongoing marketing events and other educational seminars.

The networking opportunities are endless. Meeting new members and having the opportunity for continued education through their ongoing seminars has been very rewarding.

Amy Hatcher – Cafe Pacific Catering, Inc.

Since becoming an active member in the Kent Chamber I have been amazed at the amount of referrals from other members through the numerous Chamber events created to get to know and work with other people in the business community. Maintaining a membership has been a fantastic vehicle to become [known] to local businesses and to get involved in worthwhile community events; all while having a great time! The annual membership fee has always more than paid for itself. I have owned and operated my business with my husband and partner, John Hatcher, for twenty years now; and one of the reasons we continue to grow is because of our membership in the Kent Chamber of Commerce.
