Celebrating Longevity in Top Echelon Network
February is the shortest month on the calendar. So it only makes sense that we would have our fewest number of Top Echelon firms with Network anniversaries during that month. Be that as it may, we’re still celebrating longevity in Top Echelon Network!
Celebrating the biggest anniversary this month is Pan American Search, Inc. in El Paso, Texas. Pan American Search joined the Network in February of 1995, making this its 22nd anniversary! Congratulations to Pan American and firm owner Stephanie Caviness!
We must also give a special shout-out to Database Search, Inc. in Amherst, New York. Database Search is somewhat of a special case as far as longevity in the Network is concerned. That’s because the firm’s owner, Colleen Switala, has been with Top Echelon on two separate occasions.
Longevity AND almost $1 million!
Colleen made her first placement in the Network on March 1, 1995. Since that time, she’s made 130 more placements as a Network member. She’s made eight of those since re-joining Top Echelon five years ago.
And get this: Colleen has billed close to $999,900 through the Network all-time. She’s poised to be our next $1 million producer! All she has to do is make one more placement. So if you’ve worked with Colleen in the past, let’s make this happen.
She’s already part of the exclusive Top Echelon Network 100 Placement Club. One more placement, and she’ll join the exclusive Top Echelon Network $1 Million Club.
Congratulations to everybody celebrating an anniversary this month. Let’s make more split placements!
(Editor’s note: Top Echelon recognizes firms celebrating five, 10, 15, and 20-year Network anniversaries, plus any firm celebrating an anniversary in excess of 20 years.)
