Regarding Excellence

Aristotle said “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”  Over the 20+ years we’ve been in business, MCA has always striven towards this goal-- to make sure our clients and project partners can always depend on this attention to detail in every job we undertake.  It is a matter of pride for me to know that my firm can be counted on to deliver a great product, and I hold my clients and business partners to that same standard. 

It has always seemed obvious to me that if you’re not trying to be the best, you’re not really playing the game.  Now, amidst the chaos of the economic crisis, it’s easy to put a finger on the businesses that are (or will soon be) ‘getting off of the field’, as well as those that just continue to prove their firm grasp on excellence.  I’m happy to say that once again our friend Toll Brothers is one of the latter, having just been awarded a number of honors by the homebuilding community.  I’m also thrilled that three of the awards are for work completed by Mary Cook & Associates.

Toll Brothers won an astounding 12 MAME awards from the Raleigh-Wake County Home Builders Association at their recent gala.  Three models merchandised by MCA at The Hills at Southpoint received ‘Best Merchandising’ Awards—The Ellsworth, The Singleton, and The Waterford.  It’s always a pleasure to be a party to our clients’ success, and even nicer to see that success recognized in a larger forum.  Read more about Toll’s fantastic night at the MAME Gala here.

'Spring'-ing into Action

Spring is finally here, thank goodness!  Birds are singing, the sun is shining, baseball season is getting into full swing, and MCA has a couple of 'new additions' to announce, as well.  I'm very proud to say that we have officially joined the Web 2.0 revolution, with new profiles on Facebook and Twitter.  We would love to have you as a fan; visit our profile on Facebook here or follow us on Twitter here.
