Team Member Testimonials

December 2013

I’ve never been in a company that has been so thoughtful for its employees before. I am very grateful to be working here.
-Betsy Whitney, Appraisal Coordinator

I must say that in all my years in the mortgage industry, I’ve never had a Chairman and CEO thank me and acknowledge my 1-year anniversary! That shows the integrity and compassion of this company. I truly love Cornerstone and feel so very blessed to be here! Thank you for making this the most awesome place I have ever worked.

I want to extend a “Thank you” for allowing me to attend Todd Duncan’s Boot Camp. It was very informative (a little overwhelming right now). It gives me great tools to implement within my business to become successful in your company. I also want to thank you for the wonderful dinner.

Thank you so much for sending me to the Sales Mastery Boot Camp. That was a life-changing week, and I really appreciate your investing in me. I look forward to the ROI for Cornerstone in 2014 and beyond.
-Bridgette Romero, Client Relations Manager/Production Assistant

I want to thank you for building one of the best mortgage companies! I am 23 years old, right out of college, and every, single person I have talked to about Cornerstone has told me that I am working for the best [mortgage company]. I would also like to thank you for the opportunity you gave me to go to Todd Duncan’s Boot Camp this week, investing in my future. I learned more in the last four days than I would have in a lifetime.
-Andrea Olson, Assistant Loan Officer

It is important to me that I send a note to the people involved in the Cornerstone Cares program. My family and I are beyond grateful [for the financial assistance]. The Cornerstone Care program has given us a chance not only to catch up with our payments but also, more importantly, to breathe again. It’s been a long road, and a giant weight has now been lifted. Thank you for keeping my sons in the home they love. I feel blessed and honored to work here. Please know that I am going to sign up right away to participate in the contributions to this program. I have to start small, but I believe in helping in any way I can to keep this program going.

I am on my way back from Todd Duncan's Boot Camp and want to send you a heartfelt “Thank you” for sending me. It was a huge gift and, although I have been exposed to many of the concepts through coaching, I am determined to put these ideas to use and finally build a sustainable, profitable business.
-Mark Townsend, Senior Loan Officer

I just wanted to send a HUGE “Thank you” for investing in my future at Cornerstone. Boot Camp was an eye-opener and is going to challenge me to increase new relationships and deepen current ones. I loved being around so many other eager loan originators from our company. Just seeing so many from our company shows me that you live our vision of growing Cornerstone with our God-given talents. What a blessing this is to see! Cornerstone is a truly amazing place, and I thank God that I have the privilege of working for leaders like you all. You always go above and beyond—it does not go unnoticed by me and others in our company. How great is this and how great is our God (Awesome that I can say this to you)!

It has been a wonderful year [for me at Cornerstone], and an amazing 4 years [that have passed]!
-Erich Hoff, Public Relations

Cornerstone is making a HUGE showing at Sales Mastery Boot Camp (44 out of 122). The dinner was a great opportunity to confer with other Cornerstone folks from other parts of the country on what an incredible organization we are part of. Todd Duncan had some VERY nice things to say as well about our leadership and Marc’s commitment to excellence. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I’m WILDLY excited about 2014 and all of the opportunity that it represents. My commitment to success is my best expression of gratitude.
