It is with a heart brimming with gratitude that I write this mail ♥
After an exceptionally challenging two years, we were blessed to be saved and healthy to celebrate and recognise the hard work and exceptional achievements of our ERA Top Agents, Brokers and Offices on Friday 19 November at Kleinkaap Boutique Hotel, Centurion.
To those Team Members who could not join us for this beautiful event, we missed you sorely but do understand and know that you were there in soul if not in body.
To the Team members who were there, a heartfelt thank you for taking the time and making the effort, some of you from the other sides of our vast country, to join us in paying tribute to all Top Performers.
You are what makes our ERA SA Team tick!
To the Winners who were not there to accept your prizes, though you could not be on stage with us, your presence was felt in the room with us and your names resounded proudly and loudly!
To Chris Goosen, Top Agent 2019 and Dana Du Toit, Top Agent 2020, Enjoy the cars, safe travels!
To Dirk Myburgh, Top Broker 2019 and Derick Bester, Top Broker 2020, Enjoy the trailers, many happy roadshows with the marketing material inside. May you get many years and many property sales from them!
To my gifted, exceptional Staff Members, Anfre, Jenny and Bongi, you are amazing and I am blessed to work with you everyday. Your efforts, your commitment, your attention to details but most of all, your positive ‘can do’ attitudes and the love and joy with which you go above and beyond doing your jobs, is one of the many reasons I know our ERA Brand will continue to grow and flourish.
THANK YOU ALL!
Please see below the list of all our Category Winners. Should you so wish, reach out to them to congratulate and celebrate their success.
Kind Regards,
Berna Daly (CEO - ERA South Africa)
