Here's what we are hearing about FSO staff:





Front of House Solutions
“I couldn’t be happier with my decision, when I walk in the door and present this building to my customers.”

"Her smiling personality and professionalism is always shining. She is willing to take the extra step to assist greets our guests and our employees.”

"This young lady clearly takes her job seriously and enjoys what she is doing. She greets me and my colleagues every morning with a smile and "how are you today? Can I do anything for you?

“Anything I’ve needed for my attorneys in the last few weeks, I get an immediate response from the front desk, and a follow up call to make sure everything is taken care off."

“Richard is valuable to the IP group having downloaded and checked over 800 patents.  He keeps the files in order and gets files whenever needed right away.”

"It's well-worth the savings in the long run as opposed to having everything else just tagged and stored offsite needlessly."
