Valued Customers,

I just wanted to share some great news we recently received at The Wilson Group. Our company was recognized by the Pittsburgh Business times as the fastest-growing private company in southwestern Pennsylvania. When asked the secret to our success Derrick Wilson, our President, stated it quite simply: “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” We clearly recognize this achievement would not be possible without you, our valued customer. We truly value our relationship with you and your company.

Thank you for your trust and support over the past three years and for many years to come.

Sincerely,

Douglas Beck, CDIA Director of Business Development, The Wilson Group, LLC
