  • "5th lead from Here's Chicago this quarter. Listing pays for itself!!"

    Jeff Durocher, President, U.S. Poker & Casino Parties

  • Thank you, Jim Grillo, and Here's Chicago! Our venue, Lakeshore Sport & Fitness, has been listed on the site for a year. We have had a great experience and have generated more leads/revenue events, as a result. Not only has the site led to more business, but we were also proud to play host venue for Hospitality Fest 2016. It was a pleasure working with Jim and his team of professionals. The event was a huge success! We look forward to continuing our partnership with Here's Chicago.

    Jeff Durocher, US Poker & Casino Parties

  • Here’s Chicago is an amazing site and I will definitely tout it to all my fellow event planners and clients who have a need for planning events in the Chicago area. The site really is a planner's dream because not only is it robust but it’s comprehensive and well organized. I would think every credible venue, entertainer, and transportation company would clamor to be a part of your site. Chicago Tourism should be indebted to you for creating such a great tool!

    Gail Orfanos, Freelance Meeting Professional

  • “Hereschicago.com is the best online resource directory for event planners and I think it will be a continued success. Thanks for creating an online tool that helps find the best venue/vendors in the Chicagoland area.”

  • We just booked a $100,000 private event in July from our membership with Hereschicago.com. You saved our month which is typically our slowest month of the year!! Thank you!

  • I have had the pleasure of working with Jim and his team on many different events and have always found them to be professional, detail orientated and the best that the City of Chicago has to offer in hospitality and in the connecting of people from different cultures and businesses. Thanks for all that you do Jim!
