Testimonials

We’re proud of the trust our clients have in us and our work.

Gord Griffiths certainly has had a significant impact on my career. We have worked together four times – with Quebecor, St. Joseph, Pareto and Cenveo.  Along the way I have learned a number of management lessons from Gord – keep it simple, focus on your people, and lead with a little humour.

Even when the going was tough you knew that Gord had your back and was invested in your success – I’ll always be grateful to call him a colleague, mentor, and a friend.

We are so pleased with CFR’s talent recruitment division. We had two very difficult positions to fill and after several non-successful weeks and hundreds of dollars spent on recruitment platforms, we asked CFR to help and within a month they filled both positions for us. They knew exactly what we were looking for, did not waste our time with unqualified candidates and the entire process was an absolute joy. We will definitely be using them again.

Having watched the evolution of Gord and Bob and their team at Connecting for Results over the last few years, I believe that given the rapidly changing environment within the print and packaging industry, we need an organization like this, now more than ever, that has the years of industry knowledge to navigate the headwinds that our industry is currently facing.

Gord Griffiths and the Connecting For Results (“CFR”) team are an exceptional group to work with. 

When it was time to put our 100+ year old company into the hands of a new steward, the CFR team launched this project with a strategic and thoughtful approach. Screening of prospects took key objectives into account including our desire Maracle continue at its current location maintaining employment for our dedicated crew.

While buy-sell transactions are inherently challenging, CFR’s seasoned team was always available to offer guidance in working through sticking points.  I have no hesitation in strongly recommending the print industry experts at CFR when the time comes to make big decisions.
