25 days to 25 Years

25 years is a long time.  For me, it seems like my entire lifetime.  But in 25 days on July 1, Commonwealth Consultants celebrates its 25^th year.  For someone who has been here since the doors … actually, then it was just 1 door … opened, what is most touching is that we’ve had the opportunity to serve hundreds of clients and have dozens of dedicated employees.  And every single one of you has your own story.

For our clients, I believe we always did 110% on your behalf.  We are passionate about your success and we like working with good people who believe and trust in us as much as we do in you.   

For our employees, what makes me the most happy has been to see you grow in your careers.  I love that.  I hope that we did a good job making certain you knew we would do everything we could to help you become your best and stay and succeed with us, or go on, lead your own story and change the world.  And so many have in fact changed the world. 

My greatest personal satisfaction though has been to watch how our team took our vision to harness our success to help those in need.  We have provided 8 college scholarships to students of poor backgrounds to attend George Mason University, taken over 500 children from homeless shelters and facilities on our fall field trip to the mountains and we have contributed over half a million dollars to support community charities and individuals in need.

Your business, your hard work, your passionate dedication and your trust in us has provided Commonwealth Consultants staff the opportunity to help thousands.  Thank you. 

Unfortunately, I can’t do another 25 years here, lol, but please count me in to keep up the vision to help others through our company.  As we celebrate our 25^th year on July 1, we will be posting photos of many of you who have impacted so many lives.   I hope for those of you who I’ve lost touch that you will email me at and update me on your success.  Because without all of you, we wouldn’t have lived our story here and we wouldn’t have made a difference in our community.  Thank you all again for being the catalyst to get us to this milestone.  And your partnership with us is quite simply … the reason we are here.

I’m Jim, and after almost 25 years, I’m still in Suite 250.
