Last night we had the honor of joining our client Ausco Products for the 2009 Combined Annual Reception & Salute to Business Awards put on by the Cornerstone Alliance the Cornerstone Chamber of Commerce.  They won the Large Business of the Year Award for their successes in 2008.  Ausco increased sales more than 14 percent in 2008 and has grown 80 percent over the past five years. Last year they posted their highest sales numbers in company history.  On top of that Ausco also earned a Platinum Stake Award for making investments of almost $4,000,000 in equipment and services.  We also were able to see two other clients win awards last night, Abonmarche Consultants won a Platinum Stakes Award and our newest client Freedom Screen won a Gold Stake Award.  It is especially pleasing in these times to see so many clients having successes.
