With a new year, we have seen many of our financial service representatives take great strides in building a strong reputation for MassMutual Carolinas. We are very excited to announce that our firm has received the Crystal Achievement Award for 2018. This award is given to firms who exhibit solid performance and growth over the previous year, as well as a stringent focus on the maintenance of quality business. It’s with utmost excitement and gratefulness for the hard work put in by our advisors that made this possible for all of us.
To celebrate the success we’ve had, we hosted an awards ceremony at Discovery Place. The night was well spent with exciting experiments, virtual reality simulations, and good company. “It was is an inspiring opportunity for our work community to come together in a unique, fun way that honors those who make every day a great day to be part of MassMutual Carolinas!” said Amanda Kramer, Director of Advisor Experience.
