==> CCO Shout Outs
Here are some of the AWESOME things our clients are saying about our motivated, team oriented, passionate people…

Juan Tinch & Ezequiel Martinez, Univision, New York
"I wanted to take just a moment to acknowledge the amazing support of the ETS Team and NYC Mailroom, Cynthia and last but not least Elideth here at Univision provided with getting computers and phones and all the extra equipment situated. The move could not have gone better or smoother."

Brennan Becker, CAPCO
"Definitely one of a kind. Yes the mark of greatness, is when the small things count. Like her name means in Yiddish, 'Fire'."

Team at McCarter & English, LLP 

Marcus Williams & Devon Spencer, McCarter & English, LLP 
"Last Wed. at about 4:30 p.m. I unexpectedly  needed a file for a meeting that had just been called for last Thursday morning.  My secretary was gone, as was Tracy the paralegal, who had to leave earlier than usual because she was worried that her pipes were freezing at home. Marcus and Spencer appeared at my office door at about 5:15, file in hand.  I was able to prepare and go to the meeting the next morning with the papers I needed. It sounds trite, but we truly are a family here and when people go over and above to help someone else, they are worthy of recognition.  Thank you, Marcus and Spencer. You made the firm look good."

Toni Ann Stevens, Unicredit
"Toni Ann is a rockstar's dream! Really wonderful and detail orientated. Even the toughest person to handle within UniCredit has nothing but raves for Toni Ann. I am so grateful she is the person filling in for me while I am away taking my class, I don't have to worry about a thing. Thank you so much for finding her!!"

Julieta Capote, Moses & Singer LLP 
"Julieta came to work on Friday January 3rd, and despite the snow storm and transportation difficulties, she arrived early to handle our bagel breakfast.  She is amazing, has a wealth of talents, and is just a pleasure to have at our site."

The FSO Staff at The Cliffs, New Jersey
"I just wanted to send you a quick email to let you know that two of the staff at the Cliffs went Above & Beyond for me in the last couple days. I caught that awful stomach bug that is going around. I called down to Martin on Friday morning to call the paramedics and he instantly was upstairs to help me. He also went to the store to pick me up a few things that the paramedics recommended. I honestly don't know what I would have done without his help these last few days."

The Team at CAPCO

Gabrial Santant & Roger Rios, CAPCO 
"I have never been more impressed by the way Roger and Gabriel take care of this place! Just the mere fact that I have only been here 3 weeks and their work has made an impression on me speaks for itself."

Not only are they always extremely friendly and helpful, everything under their realm is always in tip top shape - there is never a want for anything because they are always ahead of the game.  Wanted to just share that with you and make sure they get recognized for their hard work because they certainly deserve it!"

Clare Gallagher, CAPCO
"I wanted to formally recognize Clare for the help she has provided over the last few months. I moved to New York in early September, and Clare has consistently worked to ensure that I have settled in with a minimum of fuss. She was particularly helpful in sorting out my company phone, which I had a few bespoke requirements with. She has also been very helpful with numerous room requests and AV requirements."

The FSO Team at Fross Zelnick 
"All of the filing room staff is in the same unique position as a singer's accompanist and is generally taken for granted by the people they help. I cannot survive here without you, without your help, your supportive quick response, your intelligence and know-how - and flexibility (when I know accutely how thin you are spread some days). I know this does NOT make up for all the pressure that I have personally placed you under, but thank you for all of your help. I could not survive without you."

The FSO Team at Schnader, Philadephia, PA
"The secretaries on 34 wanted to thank Drina for helping out and organizing our copy stations.  They look great and are perfectly organized.  We appreciate her going the extra mile! It makes our work easier. We think all of the mail & records staff have been really friendly, pleasant and quite helpful!  Thanks for doing a great job!"

The FSO Team at Schnader 

Brayhan Cuervo, Neuberger Berman
"With Melissa out, Brian's help has been invaluable to us. We have thanked him 100 times :) but thank you to you and Tracie for making this happen and your ongoing support

The FSO Team at Richemont 
"Here at Richemont we just completed about half of several extremely large moves and construction projects with more on the near and far horizon. I could not have managed or completed these without the entire support of my team. Everything went, and is going very smoothly, with these projects, and this is mainly due to the dedication and strength of the team. I have no doubt that with everyone's continued support, all remaining projects, and especially the move of Cartier's offices, will be a huge success."

Kevin Jackson & The FSO Team at ASME
"I can’t say enough, Kevin is on top of it – he teaches, he trains, he cares. The staff are not only helpful but they really know things. Their knowledge has been phenomenal in supporting me and ASME. The team is in harmony, they are so helpful and if I ask for anything they are all over it and so proactive and get it DONE."

Christine Vanhorne, Brookfield Asset Management

Team at New York Times

"I don't know where to begin...you were a dream to work with. From start to finish I was impressed by how professional you handled everything and how everything was flawless. The dinner itself was beautiful.  I am still besides myself at how well everything came together. It was a pleasure working with you and I congratulate you for a job well done!"

The FSO Team at NY Times
"I just ran into Catherine Dolan in the cafeteria this morning and she complemented you and FSO for such a great job that was done in making sure the equipment was delivered as needed for their show this weekend. Catherine praised you personally and FSO as a whole, how professional and committed the company is."




Donald Myers and Jose Hernandez, Shiseido
"They helped the Miami team plan and execute an outstanding seminar. They were always warm, kind, hospitable and willing to help. The Miami team was incredibly gracious and highly complementary of the group and their experience with your team."

The FSO Team at Shiseido

Luis Muniz, Clyde & Co. 
"Thank you very much for helping out on the Office Services project at Clyde & Co. I really appreciate your willingness to help out outside your current position and other locations that you cover for FSO. It is helpful to have someone who has had experience with similar issues on previous projects to offer guidance. I know FSO, Clyde & Co and myself are very happy to have you assisting in this matter."

Team at Clyde & Co.

Candace Britt, GLM 
"I wanted to give Candace recognition for her work with Eva. These past two days Candace has made sure that Eva has not missed a thing. Candace breaks everything down to Eva so that there are no questions and to prevent mistakes. This shows that Candace takes her job seriously. On top of Candace doing her job and helping Eva, Candace has this warm, approachable, “hey I’m here if you need me” attitude. She is kind and never gives you the impression that any of your questions are silly. Candace is an amazing TEAM PLAYER. Always willing to jump in and help."

As we continue to expand our national footprint with a keen focus on hospitality and concierge service, communication remains key. 

Take a moment to realize we are the only company in the industry celebrating every site for their amazing work. 

Cheers to our winners for striving for perfection now and in the future.

Have a GREAT Day. Love Life & let’s keep the energy and passion rolling!!!

I'll be a seeing you soon.

Success - "To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived; this is to have succeeded."
