This is what referral marketing looks like after the referral.

PBA member Dino recently trusted fellow member Matt to clean a rug at his home. Matt delivered excellent work and Dino followed through by sharing his experience in a Google review.

That last step matters.

A referral may help a business earn one customer. A thoughtful review helps the business earn the next customer by giving people outside our chapter another reason to trust them.

One of the strengths of Portland Business Advantage is that our members don't just exchange referrals. They use each other's services, experience the quality firsthand, and when someone delivers, they help make that great work visible to others.

✅ Had a great experience with a fellow PBA member? Take a few minutes and leave them a review.

It’s a simple way to practice Givers Gain® and help strengthen another member’s business.

Jolene’s Auto Repair & Tire Pros is more than a new repair shop, it’s the next chapter in a family legacy built on honesty, hard work, and heart.

Our story began with a simple mission: to help people, provide excellent repairs, and create a place where customers could feel confident about who was caring for their vehicle.

Over the years, that mission grew into multiple trusted repair shops serving families throughout the Portland community. Now, we’re proud to continue that story with the opening of our new Jolene’s Auto Repair & Tire Pros location. Named after our daughter Jolene, this shop represents family, growth, and our commitment to serving the next generation of drivers.

We’ve invested in a brand-new 8-bay facility, modern equipment, and an incredible team so we can provide professional automotive care with the honesty, transparency, and personal attention our customers deserve.

When you walk through our doors, you’re not just another repair order. You’re a neighbor, a friend, and part of the community we’re proud to serve.

Come help us celebrate the Grand Opening of Jolene’s Auto Repair & Tire Pros. Tour our new facility, meet our amazing team, enjoy food, prizes, and giveaways, and see one of Portland’s newest state-of-the-art automotive repair shops.

Bring your family and friends. We’d love to meet you, show you around, and welcome you into the Jolene’s Auto Repair family. At Jolene’s, our family is here to take care of yours.

Are YOU having a difficult time finding an honest mechanic? Reach out to Veille, a long time member of our BNI chapter.
