I hope this email finds everyone well and dry!  We have had a slow start in January because of all of this wet weather but that gave us time to retool some of our procedures. 

We recently attended a Strategies for Success seminar in Tampa, FL for a week.  The experience was amazing.  We were able to learn from the most successful companies in our field.  Implementing the processes we were taught have been challenging and beneficial to our company.

The rain has stopped now but might continue later in the week so be ready.  If water damage does involve your property, give us a call so we can help dry you out!

Our new local number is (909) 260-3680.  Give us a call and say hello, just for the fun of it.  Of course, if you have any questions we can answer them too.

We are in homes and businesses on a daily basis which gives us the ability to reach your potential clients directly.  We give out a folder to all our clients, as we finish each job, that has data in it for them.  The folder has their receipt, referral sheets, a newsletter, etc.  Included is an envelope with information about other companies that could benefit our clients.  We would like to put your information in that envelope!  Call us (909) 260-3680, or email us here, Shamrock Cleaning and Restoration, if you are interested.

Here is a great quote from a friend of ours Glen Douglas owner of LA Custom Pools and Spas:

"For every $100 spent at a locally owed business, $45 goes back into the community and our tax base. For every $100 spent at a chain store, only $14 comes back."

Pass this quote around and keep the idea in mind as you spend your money throughout the day.

The Rancho Cucamonga Chamber has been great to us the last two years.  We are going to be the quarterly sponsor again to show you what we can do for you.

Kitty Warrington of SCE Credit Union has been great by giving all the money will can use.  She also loved to give advice and it is usually good too.  Thanks for your help Kitty.

Anna Rhodes of Alpine Paper Supply has helped us out with the
janitorial work we do at the Claremont Chamber of Commerce.  They have so many products, call for anything you need.

Mike Bailey of Ameriprise Financial Services Inc. had us do a little of this and that for him.  Ask him how everything came out.  If he will not tell you I have pictures!  Mike is also a huge resource for any financial questions.  He has been an expert in the field for longer than he will admit.

Kevin and Mirabell Brown at Minuteman Press did a great job with our new business logo.  The staff at Minuteman was great.  They listened to everything we wanted and were very creative based on our needs.  Call Kevin and Mirabell for help for any printing needs.

I personally want to thank Grace Urane of the Coffee Klatch for serving me a great cup of coffee.  I enjoy the scene at Coffee Klatch.  Actually, I saw Anna Rhodes from Alpine Paper and Alice-Faye Peugh of the Cucamonga District Host Lions there last month.  I guess I am not the only one who likes Coffee Klatch.

I sat down for pizza with Dominic Melillo from Novelty Printing last week.  He told me that a NFL football team was coming to the area!  How did I miss that?   Dominic is on the ball.  Call Novelty for shirts, magnets, trophies, anything you could use for your business.

Shirley Patrick is paying the Shamrock team now.  First Team Staffing has great rates and service.  She came out to our business and educated the team about what she will do for them.  Call Shirley for any needs you have.

Cyndi Lee of Distinctive Designs had us come over and clean some carpet for her.  I think we saved her the purchase of new carpet in her home.  She has a great flower shop in the Sunrise Center on Baseline and Carnelian.  She sent an arrangement out for us to Abbey Khoury Servpro who said the flowers were wonderful.

Harry Guevreyan of Harry's Jewelry thought of us last month.  Thanks Harry.  I will be in soon to get my watch battery changed. 

Rich Fletcher of Certified Leasing is a great mailman.  He brings us our mail when ever someone forgets we do not rent an office from him anymore.  If you do need office space give him a call.

Ernie and Juanita Braunwalder of Braunwalder Insurance & Financial Services helped us with health insurance for our company.   Juanita was wonderful answering all the silly questions we had.  I need another degree to understand the in's and out's of insurance.

Ron Sakala of Union Bank is a ham.  Do you see the picture of him on top of this newsletter!  We want to thank him for the referral he gave us.  Ron is the man and he gives great hugs too.

Denise Lutz of The Entrepreneur's Source has also been a help to our business.  She suggested reading the E Myth Revisited, by Michael Gerber.  The book was great and we are basing everything we do on the principles presented.  Eric even met Michael Gerber at the Success Seminar.

Ashley of Daisy I. T. Supplies Sales & Service supplied me with some great toner last week.  Those guys are great at Daisy, call them for any office need and they will be able to help you.
