Hello, my name is Mark Bisaillon.
I am a Master Mason with Twin Peaks Lodge #32 in Midvale, UT and Wheaton Lodge #269 in Wheaton, IL.

I started MasonicReferral as a way to help other Masons help themselves and each other.

One of the benefits of joining a social group of any kind is the community knowledge that gets shared.  Different members have different areas of interest and expertise.  I found this personally very helpful as I reached out to my brothers for referrals for a good mechanic, lawyer, house cleaning service, real estate agent and so on.  I also got a certain satisfaction out of being able to contribute back to those same brothers when they were looking for a recommendation in an area of my particular interests or knowledge.

As I considered this community of knowledge, it occurred to me that it is not always easy to find who owns the specific knowledge you may be looking for at the time.  Invariably we ask someone if they know of a good provider of some service.  They may not, but they recommend checking with another person.  And so on and so on.  It's time consuming simply trying to find a recommendation.

Additionally, all things being equal, I prefer to give my business to a brother Mason.  Doing this helps  support a brother in his endeavor to support his family and I am confident that I'm working with someone I can trust.  Everyone wins.

So, in an effort to help expand the ability of all Masons to help each other, I've started MasonicReferral.com.

Subscribe to the service and post your excellent, or potentially not-so-excellent service, experiences for other Masons to benefit from.  Or, search the postings and find reputable companies referred, not by some stranger, but by a brother.  Someone you can trust.

We are also promoting Masonically owned and operated businesses by advertising those businesses.

But, to create another "win-win" situation, advertising rates will be low in an effort to help a brother Mason get the word out other Masons about his business.  In addition, the advertising brother must make a special offer to his brothers.  e.g.: 10% discount, 1st hour free, etc.

I hope you find this idea as compelling as I do and join us.

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me.

Fraternally,
