We want to take this opportunity to extend our deepest gratitude to Alex Guttman from ACE Janitorial for his recommendation to become a member of IREON, to hold the exclusive cleaning service provider category on its membership roster.

Since joining the organization, Steve the CEO and his management team have been wonderful in setting up hand selected one on one meetings (zoom and teleconferences) with existing members.

The Bi-weekly Zoom Meetings and in person meet and mingle gatherings attended have been excellent. They have fast tracked us to become warmly and personally integrated into the group.

The power of this organization is its exclusive connections. The non-compete format puts you face-to-face, one-on-one, with the biggest names in the industry, and the door is wide open to developing powerful relationships. My hesitation to join was relieved on Day 2, as on Day 1 I presented my company and immediately on Day 2 I had meetings set up with CEOs and Key Decision Makers of some of the most impressive corporations in the real estate industry.

A lot of impressive people that know exactly what they're talking about.

Total Fire Protection rejoined IREON in February 2024, a decision that has proven itself time and again.

IREON is a unique business development group where members truly want to help each other succeed. IREON management provides a “white glove” service that has been incredibly helpful and time efficient. The one on one zoom meetings facilitated by IREON is what sets the group apart from any other.
