"It affords us great pleasure to be able to pen these words as it regards to Isabella Laforet. She is an outstanding professional that executes professionalism on a level far above excellent. It is her personal touch that makes the difference; it really is beyond comparison! Every event, i.e., Steve Harvey’s 2011 and 2012 Hoodie Awards and 2012 Circle of Sisters that we have had the pleasure to work on with her has always been a pleasant experience. It was at the 2012 Circle of Sisters event that we expressed to Isabella the passion that we have for Lupus awareness because I (Zenay) am a sufferer of the disease but also a conqueror as it regards the quest for awareness: Isabella developed a plan and a platform that afforded Tichina the opportunity to speak to thousands as it regarded Lupus awareness. She is professional, accommodating, helpful and seems to make ways-out-of-no-way but most of all she is a blessing to work with, she has an uncanny ability "TO MAKE IT HAPPEN FOR YOU!"

"I find that one of the most important things to have in the music business is "above" and "beyond" people around you. "Good" people will give you "good" results. "Above" and "beyond" will exceed your expectations. Isabella is a born "above and beyonder". She's that person who takes the time to learn who you are as an artist and as an individual (even when the band is 7+ deep) which then allows her to do the job at hand with passion...the type that you can only have when you share the vision and are focused on the mission of the client. Being multi-talented and experienced in so many areas is always going to give her the edge in my book. Combined with a beautiful and warm personality, it's a win-win situation for anyone working with her and her company."

Tim Melchor/Comfort Touring

“During the winter of 1996 Outkast, Goodie Mob and I had the good fortune to have Isabella Laforet as our road manager during The Camel Cigarette sponsored tour of Germany. Specifically, Isabella served as liaison between the German tour manager and me. Isabella possesses such an assortment of skills and virtues worthy of praise it would take far too long to list, however here are some of her finer points: Isabella is a professional’s professional, punctual and energetic, always ready to take on the days business with eagerness. Her diplomatic charm and grace coupled with her intellectual prowess makes her a formidable and valued ally. Yet she is intuitive and sensitive to her client’s feelings and thoughts which affords her keen perception and capability in handling delicate matters. She is detail and task oriented without losing sight of the big picture. But most admirable and refreshing is Isabella’s dedication, resourcefulness, and honesty. Even during the most difficult moments on the tour Isabella never surrender her positive disposition, calm and clear sense of purpose while others were lost and losing their heads. It was due to her outstanding demonstration of leadership, multilingual skill set and multicultural sensibilities that transformed a most challenging tour into a successful and pleasant experience for all involved. So valued was Isabella’s insight of German, American and Hip Hop culture that Tim Melchor (Goodie Mob’s T.M.) and I began consulting with her before we made any decision regarding our respective artists. So it is with special distinction and great joy that I author this recommendation for Isabella Laforet, because of her professional acuity she was an ideal host and a superb road manager. Isabella, not only met our requirements, but exceeded all of our expectations. For her noble and extraordinary service Isabella Laforet has my deepest gratitude, highest esteem, support and endorsement for any endeavor she undertakes.”
