Gillespie, President and CEO, Coldwell Banker Real Estate Corporation
"Dear Connie, I want to recognize and congratulate you on your outstanding
success in your very short real estate career. I am amazed that after
only three years in our industry you have achieved a level in our
company that only a few have attained. You have risen to the top 2%
of all the 126,000 sales associates we have around the world. What
is equally amazing is that you have accomplished this feat in a market
that few have success in. The Beverly Hills market is very competitive
and extremely difficult to break into. What is even more difficult
to accomplish is that when you began selling in this market, you were
new to the area and knew only a handful of people. You are an outstanding
credit to Coldwell Banker. I also wish to congratulate you for the
wonderful job you did on the Fine Living television network show,
“Real Estate Confidential.” The way you handled a most difficult listing
that two previous real estate sales people had failed to sell was
tremendous. I loved how you confronted a delicate situation with professionalism
and gentleness, a needed combination in dealing with a seller’s home
to get the job done. You are a true “Star.” Connie,
it is people like you make Coldwell Banker special. There is nothing
more important than providing outstanding service resulting in a satisfied
experience for our customers. You are a true asset to our great company
and I wish you continued success."

"Connie, I wanted to say hello to you when I visited BH North the
other day, but I missed you. I very much enjoyed your video (Real
Estate Confidential), and I did pass it along to Jeff Culbertson,
the Senior Vice President for NRT in our region. I believe you upheld
the highest principles of ethics in our business in the manner that
you addressed the issues at hand with your clients. Thank you for
making Coldwell Banker look good. All best wishes to you, Connie.
Keep up the good work"

"Connie is not only a colleague but she has also become a friend.
In both her professional and personal life she is loyal and has an
integrity which is hard to find. I have so much confidence in Connie
that I leave my own clients in her care because I always know that
they are in the best of hands. She has energy and a work ethic that
are unmatched. The most important things I can point out about Connie
is that she is honest, hard working, knowledgeable and more importantly,
she really cares which is why she has quickly become a rising star
at Coldwell Banker."
