Subject: Mr. Gramata, Greetings
Jim,
I just wanted to let you know that my girlfriend stumbled onto your Podcast while looking up a song by Chicago. What made it most amusing is that she was working on the computer while I was packing it up at my office and asked aloud, “whose Jim Gramata?”
We listened to the Podcast, and that lead me to your site. Everything looks, and sounds, awesome. I’ve been writing loans for eight years and I’ve never seen a Realtor go to this length to give professional and reliable information.
I just thought of sending this message and congratulating you on your promotions. I hope all is well.
Sincerely,
Javier Perez
