In his proclamation from the state capital, Governor Schwarzenegger stated "Since your organization's inception, you have worked to promote high standards of professionalism and offer quality service to your membership. Your networking opportunities help expand your member companies, and you keep them abreast of the latest business tips and leads to assist their enterprises."

"Governor Schwarzenegger has honored us with this proclamation," said Kim Marie Branch-Pettid, president of LeTip International. "It is our belief that small business owners and entrepreneurs are far too often the unsung heroes of the American economy. Our organization creates a successful environment and a proven plan to grow small businesses through our chapter memberships. It is vitally important to inspire and support these heroes of the American economy because when they succeed, the entire country prospers."
