Dallas Stewart, president of CMIT Solutions in Kirkland, Bellevue and Redmond won the Franchise of the Year award at the company’s recent annual convention and awards ceremony in San Antonio.
CMIT Solutions is an information technology company that utilizes a franchise model to work with businesses of all sizes across multiple industries. Its annual convention brings together home office leadership and owners from across the nation for four days of training, information-sharing and recognition of excellence.
“Dallas’ industry knowledge, passion for serving his clients and commitment to giving back to his community have all led him to have a successful year,” said Jeff Connally, president and CEO of Austin-based CMIT, in a CMIT release. “Since opening his office in 2009, he has been a resource the whole franchise system can rely on. Dallas excels in each area of his business, and we look forward to watching him grow and develop as he continues to push forward.”
Themed “CMIT Elevate,” the convention celebrated several key accomplishments and worked to inspire attendees — franchise partners, local market team members and corporate leadership — to continue to aim high, think big and rise to the occasion day-in and day-out. The four days included extensive sales and marketing training, educational seminars and opportunities to share best practices.
The CMIT Solutions home office completed comprehensive assessments prior to deciding which office would win the Franchise of the Year award. Stewart achieved the recognition because of his office’s client retention rate, sales records and his commitment to helping his clients, his community and the entire franchise system grow in a positive manner, the release states.
“It really is an honor to be recognized by the franchise system for our work in the technology industry and in our community,” Stewart said in the release. “Helping people is what we do best. Whether it is helping our clients work through a major network upgrade, update to newer technologies or helping a nonprofit organization in our community fundraise, we are happy to be involved. This recognition is a testament to the dedication of my whole office. We’re a team, and we look forward to the year ahead as we continue to strengthen our presence in Bellevue, Kirkland and Redmond communities.”
