If you want to know why more than 1,500 Chamber executives throughout the U.S. have chosen VillageProfile.com® as their Publishing Partner...
Just ask them!

Village Profile has been a great partner for the Naperville Area Chamber of Commerce over the years. However, this year that relationship was truly put to the test when our annual publication, which also served as our Centennial Anniversary edition, had to be put together during a transitional time of Chamber leadership. I couldn't think of a better dedicated team of professionals to have worked with on this project! Their committment to our success kept us on track, on time, and focused on a great product being delivered. Trust me, I sure didn't make it easy either! Village Profile was fantastic to work with and I look forward to our partnership for years to come.

Michael A. Evans
President & CEO
Naperville Area Chamber of Commerce

We recently completed our fourth Lifestyle Magazine project with Village Profile. Once again it has been a great pleasure to work with Michael Holmes. Michael truly is the ultimate sales professional. He really enjoys what he is doing, which comes across while he is selling our publications.

The sales results for our Lifestyle Magazine were spectacular, far better than we anticipated. Even though the economy is still sluggish in our community. Michael was able to secure advertising commitments from more than 90 businesses, which was an increase of about 20% from our previous publication.

In addition to his sales success, Michael also brought in EIGHT new members to our organization and provided us with additional membership leads. He is really driven to make each day productive and really looks out for the best interests of our Chamber.

I greatly appreciate his respect towards the relationships that we have built with our members. He always strives to make every interaction with our members a positive experience.

We're grateful that all four Lifestyle Magazines that Michael has worked on have generated tremendous revenues for our organization while receiving a terrific response for their quality from our members and our community. We appreciate his attention to detail and look forward to working with him again on our next chamber publication.

Rose Treml Executive Director
Sycamore Chamber of Commerce

We have been delighted with Village Profile's performance since we switched to them several years ago. Our printed Directories have been delivered on-time and accurately and the artwork is beautiful. The Village Profile staff is very friendly and customer-service oriented, and the on-line product is terrific. I'm always happy to recommend Village Profile to all of my Chamber of Commerce colleages.

Bob Canter, ACE President & CEO
Emeryville Chamber of Commerce

Well I took an hour to look over the Fremont Village Profile magazine and I have to say, I am extremely pleased with the entire piece! The photos, articles, ads, mapping and the print quality all have come together to make this publication one to be very proud of. Our community truly needed this piece.

I am so pleased that the Chamber took the initiative to go forth. I am looking forward to being an instrumental part of the map (the next phase of the agreed project). Please let me know if there is anything I can do to assist with that project. And.please keep me in mind to be the banner advertiser for the piece!

Congrats Ron and Staff - very well done!

Shannon Mullen - Executive Director
Fremont and Dodge County Convention & Visitors Bureau

I wanted to let you know we received the shipment of magazines today. They look great. I appreciate everything you and the VP production team did for us to produce the book. I realize it was a long, uphill process at times, especially on our end, but our collective persistence made it a reality. Thanks so much!

Paul Bendel, CCE
Richardson Chamber of Commerce

I would like to say thanks to Village Profile for joining our Chamber family. I would also like to thank the entire Village Profile team for the professional and quality workmanship that has been put into our Community Profile over the past five years."

George Whitehurst

"We have worked with Village Profile on six issues of our City Guide! The reason we stay with VP is their attention to creativity, fine printing and great people! Here is to another issue together!"

Lisa Batto
President/CEO
Napa Chamber of Commerce

The Joliet Chamber has worked with Dan Greenhouse and Village Profile for the past 15 years for publishing community profile books, city and county maps and lifestyle magazines. We have been nothing but pleased with the sales technique and the end product. Publishing schedules have been met and the quality high.

Russ Slinkard-President CEO
Joliet Chamber of Commerce

Our chamber has been working with Village Profile for quite a few years for our maps and our Lifestyle Magazines. Their publications are first class...real attend-getters. My members are very happy with their ads and with how Village Profile works with them. My sales rep, Eric Zitron, is extremely professional and I know that he treats my members with the respect and courtesy they deserve. It's nice to know that I don’t have to worry about a Village Profile project.

Lynne Schneider
Executive Director
Buffalo Grove Area Chamber of Commerce

We received the books yesterday and I think they are the best we have ever done. They look great!

Melanie Anaya

Just want to let Village Profile™ know that our community profile book has been a great hit here. Everyone has been impressed with the quality, layout and content. It will be a tremendous asset for Wapakoneta.

Dan Graf, Director

Thanks so much for this morning and the opportunity to promote our Chamber. I really appreciate it. You sound great on the station. Great job you are doing helping our local Chambers.

We just received our shipment of our Membership Directory... FABULOUS!!!!

You guys did an incredible job.

I have already given out our directories to the businesses at the airport and the hotels have come by to pick up copies. We could not have planned it better. Today marks the beginning of the Omelette Festival...so plenty of tourist here in town.

Either way, twist open the cap and pop the champagne for another year successfully completed! Thanks Jodie to you and your fabulous team!

I would like to begin this project in 2010.  The City of Monticello is working with North Star on a brand, and we'll be ready to roll that out early next year.  

We're looking forward to working on another project with Village Profile.  

I just researched our projects with you.  Our relationship with VP began in 1997-1998...we did our first Profile Book.  This will be our third Profile Book and we've completed four map projects with VP.  And they have all been great!!!

Thank you for all you do to help us promote Monticello!!!  We'll be in touch.

Janet Dold
Executive Director
Monticello, Indiana Chamber of Commerce

I took copies of the new mag with me to Orlando for the CoreNet show. It was a hit! People at trade shows normally do not like to take anything that weighs a lot back home with them, but they wanted this publication. They could not believe we produced this!

Angie Baber
Director, Marketing
Greater Omaha (NE) Chamber of Commerce

"What really impressed me about working with {sales representative} Michael Holmes is that he understands the dynamics of the Chamber.... His 'soft' sales approach was very appropriate for our membership.

"Through his sales efforts we increased the number of advertisers from 26 to 60. Needless to say, we are thrilled that our royalty check from Village Profile™ will more than double."

Kathy Dyrdahl, Executive Director
Roscoe Area (IL) Chamber of Commerce

I would like to take this opportunity to express my thanks for the R.S.V.P.™ Scholarship Program that Village Profile™ has implemented.

Your program has allowed me to finish my last year at WACE in Sacramento next week. This Chamber, which only has 250 members, could not have afforded to send me this year and because of Village Profile™, I will be leaving Sunday for the conference. WACE is a great refresher for those of us who have been a part of Chambers for numerous years and I thank you for your support of this fantastic learning experience.

Ruth Finholt, CEO
Indian Wells Chamber of Commerce

Michael Holmes recently completed the sales campaign for the Mason City/Clear Lake, Iowa community reference guide. I described his success in 2010 by saying he sold his socks off. This year, as I'm sure your aware, he surpassed those results! More importantly, he accomplished this with an informative and creative sales style that was extremely appropriate for dealing with our membership. I am impressed with the manner in which Michael kept in touch with me throughout the campaign, and the consideration he showed our office staff.

This publication marks the fourth project we have completed with Village Profile, and the third project that Michael has sold the advertisements for us. He nearly has me convinced to do a map project with your firm, simply so he could do the dales. I wish we could work with him on every project!

We're looking forward to a continued successful relationship with Village Profile.

Robin Anderson, Executive Director
Mason City Chamber of Commerce

"Let me take this opportunity to express my gratitude to Village Profile™ for such a successful campaign on the fourth edition of our membership directory.... Mary and Neil Walker exhibited great professionalism and salesmanship; thus we far exceeded our revenue goal."

Wanda Whitus, President
Farmville Area (VA) Chamber of Commerce

The book arrived today and looks fantastic - the phone is ringing with positive comments. I must say it literally LEAPS off the pages!

All part of the master plan to continue bringing the Laurentian Chamber to the forefront of our communities. Please pass along.

Jim Currie, Executive Director
Laurentian Chamber of Commerce

I wanted to let you know how pleased I was with the sales campaign for the 2008 publication. {Our VP sales representative} Patrick is enthusiastic, industrious, efficient,  professional, energetic, and extremely savvy. Not only did he achieve a dramatic sales increase in a remarkably short amount of time (finishing the project ahead of schedule), but he also made new friends in our community. The Chamber received only positive comments regarding Patrick. He is a tremendous asset to Village Profile™, and a great ambassador of the collaborative relationship between Chambers and Village Profile™.

Robin Raney, Executive Director
Graham Chamber of Commerce

Rob Arenz was our sales person and the feedback regarding his presentations were awesome. I was told he was "a delight, personable, not pushy, easy to work with and just a nice guy." He made a great impression and one you should be proud of. You have a great salesman in Rob and I look forward to working with him on our next project.

Jane Hove
Bloomingdale (IL) Chamber of Commerce

I would like to say thank you for sending us David & MarceliND, our sales reps – they were fantastic. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed having them here! They were so professional and a joy to work with. The whole experience with Village Profile™ has exceeded my expectations.

Thank you for all your hard work!

Kathy Martinez, Executive Director
Kingsville (TX) Chamber of Commerce

I just read the first issue of Homer Glen Lifestyle magazine. I was very impressed and thoroughly enjoyed it – I read it from cover to cover! I have worked in Homer Glen almost 10 years (as a Marketing Assistant for a retirement community) and so I especially appreciated your accurate and balanced portrayal of the community... It's an outstanding publication!

Chris Pieczonka, Marketing Assistant
Marian Village

Just received our maps and are very pleased. Working with your staff is a pleasure; everyone is very professional and most accommodating with dates, delivery and everything we requested. Thanks for producing such a quality product.

Jill Blodgett, Executive Director
Hoffman Estates (IL) Chamber of Commerce

Just wanted to share the rave reviews for our new Village Profile™ magazine. Many people have passed along some very positive comments about it. As always, it's a pleasure working with all of you. Thank you for all your help!

Donna Framke, Marketing Director
Village of Tinley Park (IL)

The response so far to this high quality magazine has been terrific. Employees and elected officials at City Hall have been repeating some of the "50 Fun Facts About Rancho Mirage;" many residents have found our office to pick up an extra copy or two to mail to friends and relatives in other parts of the country.

My goal when we started this was to deliver a Chamber magazine/directory with the basic information (demographics, etc.) along with compelling articles and photos that would appeal to our readers. I believe we have met that goal and would put our magazine up against any other Chamber publication in California in terms of quality and content. Thanks to you and everyone at Village Profile™ for helping us to achieve this goal of delivering the publication I have always dreamed of.

Stuart Ackley, President/CEO
Rancho Mirage (CA) Chamber of Commerce

I do not often take the time from my packed schedule to write a fan letter, but felt I had to when your post-publication Survey arrived on my desk. I know I checked all 5's, which is also very unlike me. I am a hard grader but your team is so excellent, and customer service so outstanding from all aspects. Everyone is a pleasure to work with and all seem to know what is happening in all departments/. If only all companies we work with had the same kind of communication and customer service skills your employees do. I have recommended VP to other Chambers and will continue to do so.

Jan Wight, Executive Director
Duarte (CA) Chamber of Commerce

I would like to take a moment to thank you and your staff for the wonderful map of Mountain Home you printed. Your staff was very professional and helpful throughout the entire process. I look forward to our next project and would highly recommend your company.

Debra Shoemaker, Executive Director
Mountain Home (ID) Chamber of Commerce

WOW!! You guys really know how to provide the “wow factor”! Customer service and a superior product are truly your highest priorities.... all the way from our project manager Mark Waligorski who helped expedite publication in time to circulate it at an international conference, sooner that the original target delivery. Great job – Thanks to the entire team. The publication is going to continue to help us put Cloverdale on the map. It's a great marketing tool.

Linda C,. Brown, ACE
President/CEO
Cloverdale (CA) Chamber of Commerce

I wanted to take a minute and tell you how much we love our new profile. What an awesome job you did for us and we very much appreciate you and all the talent your firm brings to each project. Sales exceeded our expectations and the quality of the magazine is superb.

Teri Tomlinson
Business Operations Manager
Bullhead (AZ) Area Chamber of Commerce

We have heard nothing but positive feedback about the directories since we began distributing them. Our interactions with Village Profile™ have been totally satisfying from beginning to end. Your organization treated us with respect throughout the entire process. The directories are beautiful and we thank you very much for your professionalism and proficiency throughout the entire process.

Annie Winterbottom
East Orlando Chamber of Commerce

I thoroughly enjoy working with each and every one of you. I have referred Village Profile™ to six Chambers and other organizations. The new web tools looks great!

Let's do it again in 2007.

Nathan Kirschenbaum, Director of Membership Development
Covina (CA) Chamber of Commerce

Congratulations! Our Community and Business Guide is currently in the process of wide distribution. We are very proud and thankful to you and the Village Profile™ staff for all your kind support. This is our first attempt at providing a professional marketing piece and you were all so gracious and supportive in making it a total success.

Every one in the community has expressed their enthusiasm and thanks.

We received the shipment literally 30 minutes before the start of our annual Board Retreat. What a great way to open our meeting. We had to take a break from our agenda to allow everyone time to “touch and feel”

There is a good chance that we may reorder at a future date. Can you provide us with some reprint pricing at say 2000 and 5000 copies?

Please share with everyone at Village Profile™ our gratitude for your help, patience and professional support.

If you or your staff are in Colorado, please stop to say hello and allow us to express our appreciation in person.

"My name is Dennis Walker and I own Dennis Walker's Fishing Guide Service in Green Lake Wisconsin. I have advertised on the Communities of Green Lake map since 2000 when Green Lake County first hired Village Profile™ to produce their map and wrap. This will be the third time they have produced the map for them and I have advertised each time. Jacklyn Ewerdt is very professional and accommodating to work with and the quality of Village Profile™'s work is exceptional and first class. I know for a fact that I have received numerous phone calls from my ad which has resulted in additional business for my Guide Service. I would recommend doing business with Village Profile™ to anyone."

I wanted to write and let you know how happy I am with the new community guide/business directory that Village Profile™ did for the Monrovia Chamber of Commerce.   After working so closely with you, I now consider you as friends. I thank you for all your personal interest in our project and helping to make it so extraordinary through your suggestions and your patience when I wanted some items changed.

Village Profile™'s easy-to-follow system for putting together a professional looking publication works, and answered many of the questions that came up during the process.   When we did encounter a problem, I knew just who to call, and each item was systematically taken care of.

I will happily recommend Village Profile™ to any organization planning to do a publication with you.

Karin Crehan Executive Director
Monrovia Chamber of Commerce

Just a note to tell you how PLEASED we are with the map that you produced for our Chamber.   They were delivered ahead of schedule – for which we are very thankful.

Your representative, ALLON FISH , (whom I have known for a couple of decades) promised us a good map – but you produced a GREAT map!

We want to also inform you that your sales representatives – STEVE and TERESA GIMBUT – represented your company extremely well and we received fine comments on the way that they conducted themselves and how they represented both Village Profile™ and the Beach Chamber.

Again – we thank you for making us look good.

D.J. Petruccelli, CCE, President
Greater Fort Myers Beach Area Chamber of Commerce

I got my atlases on Friday. They look wonderful! Please pass along my praises to all who were involved. Thanks!

It has been our pleasure to work with you and Village Profile™ for several years in the production of several directories, and now the Arcadia City Map. We are more than pleased with each book your company has done and now are delighted with the new map. The quality of the finished product is excellent. The cartography department always incorporated our suggestions & corrections and the finished product is the most accurate map ever. The quality of the paper used is heavier & tougher than we have had with previous companies. The quality of the printing is excellent and the sales conducted by (Village Profile™) was of the highest caliber.

Thank you for a great 2007-08 city map.

Beth Costanza
Executive Director Arcadia Chamber of Commerce

“I just received my copy of the new Grand Prairie Map, and all I can say is WOW!

Please pass along my thanks to everyone who participated in this project. You all did an outstanding job!”
