RSVP here: mvcc.chamberofcommerce.me/Calendar/moreinfo.php?eventid=305040  One of the many benefits to joining the Mission Viejo Chamber of Commerce is to enjoy a "warm" marketing appointment via one-on-one business visits. It's during these special visits that you really start to build long-lasting business relationships, become better acquainted with your fellow Chamber member, and clearly identify each other's referral needs and how to help promote one another more fully. Yesterday, John Rodriguez, of iFinance Mortgage, met with Kathy Jimenez, with Rodan & Fields. Kathy is a mover and shaker in her business communities, hard working mother and wife, and a true inspiration for all who are juggling multiple responsibilities. All Chamber members are encouraged to take full advantage of one-on-one business visits - simply "marketing 101"! For more information on Rodan & Fields products and services, please feel free to contact Kathy at (657) 269-0052 or rfkathyj@gmail.com. If you would like more information on today's interest rates or regarding home loan programs, please contact John Rodriguez at 949-456-7056 or jrod@ifminc.com.   The Chamber and the City are co-sponsoring the Oso Fit Community Health Fair & 5k Fun Run on February 23rd and we need your help.
We are collecting $25 gift cards/certificates from businesses within the Chamber and the community to give away as prizes to the first place finishers in each age bracket.
