CSTDA Insurance Services Moves Into Fremont Business Park, Joins TEAM Christy

May 25, 2010 by Fremont Business Park

Founded in 1976, CSTDA Insurance Services is a highly successful independent insurance agency, specializing in commercial insurance services for corporate clients and some individual business people. The company provides a variety of business insurance lines, in addition to medical and dental insurance.

CSTDA Insurance was located in Hayward for many years, but most recently was based in Newark — before signing its long-term lease for 42840 Christy Street, Suite 235, in Fremont Business Park. The company will occupy approximately 1,275 square feet of space.

Ideal Location
The biggest attraction for Will Davi of CSTDA was Fremont Business Park’s location off Auto Mall Parkway near the Pacific Commons shopping center. “The offices are in a great part of Fremont,” Davi said. “We serve clients in Silicon Valley as well as the East Bay and around the rest of the Bay Area, so Fremont is ideally situated for us.”

Davi also likes the complex itself. “The buildings are well laid out, and the offices have a nice homey feel to them,” noted Davi. “The other tenants are primarily businesses much like ours, so it’s great to be working side-by-side with like-minded business people.”

Becoming a Part of TEAM Christy
TEAM Christy will also give CSTDA Insurance Services the opportunity to meet monthly with other tenants to discuss common challenges and brainstorm solutions, learn more about each other’s businesses to be able to refer clients to one another, explore joint marketing opportunities in traditional as well as new media such as social networking, and attend informative seminars on topics of broad interest to business people.

TEAM Christy was created by Borelli Investment Company, which manages and markets the complex, and is available at no charge to all tenants.

New Heating/Air Conditioning System Will Be Cool for Tenants

Borelli Investment Company recently installed the control system for a sophisticated new heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system at Fremont Business Park that will ultimately offer numerous benefits to tenants. The solution will help control tenants’ utility expenses, while reducing wasteful energy consumption. Christy Street businesses will also have access to better environmental controls for their individual offices.

In addition, the Christy Street property manager will receive a more comprehensive set of data, so he or she can respond more efficiently to tenant needs. And both the HVAC provider and property manager will be able to troubleshoot, adjust, and repair the system remotely over the Internet — for fastest response.

The next step in the process is to replace a number of coolers that are integral to the air conditioning performance. An upgrade to the heating system will come later. Because it’s late May, it really shouldn’t be needed for a while, if the winter ever ends!

Schedule a Tour

With nicer weather most days, the interest in the available office space at Fremont continues to increase. Brokers or tenants who would like a tour of the complex should contact Anna Mcquillan Rose while the selection of spaces is at its best. Anna can also be reached by phone at (408) 550-4826.

TEAM Christy Takes Exciting First Step

May 11, 2010 by Fremont Business Park

TEAM Christy held its first meeting last Thursday at 4:00 p.m. And judging from the reactions of the great group of people who gathered in the Christy Street conference room, the TEAM concept is going to be a winner at Fremont Business Park!

One-Third of Tenants Attend
The meeting was well-attended, particularly by the newer tenants in the office complex. Approximately one-third of the growing tenant list was on hand. And it soon became obvious why people were there.

It starts with connections — connections that give businesses of any size an edge in an increasingly competitive marketplace.

And a Borelli Investment Company Chairman Ralph Borelli spoke about plans for TEAM Christy, it became clear from the contributions made by group members that the potential was there for much more. TEAM Christy benefits will include:

      •​ Holding monthly meetings to let the attendees discuss common challenges and share strategies that are working

•​ Exploring joint marketing opportunities

•​ Learning about the latest ways to build their companies through options such as social media

•​ Attending educational workshops

•​ Even trying their hand authoring news for this blog — as LNT Solutions already has!

New Ideas Emerge
As individual TEAM Christy members were introduced, innovative new ideas began to flow. One member suggested that future meetings include “field trips” to learn more about member businesses.  That way, all TEAM Christy members would be better able to refer business to one another.

Another person suggested banner advertising on the Fremont Business Park website or blog site. Someone else mentioned the group would be a great place for marketing people in addition to business owners or CEOs. And there was definitely a lot of interest in having access to the TEAM Christy blog.

Let’s Do Lunch
Several members also said it might be better to meet over an extended lunch hour — after any morning crises have been handled, but before end-of-day issues pop up within their companies.

So that’s the plan: at the next TEAM Christy get-together, you’ll not only be able to chew on some good suggestions — but you’ll also be able to munch some lunch at the same time. Watch this space and your e-mail for upcoming announcements. And if you weren’t at the first meeting, don’t miss another opportunity to join this dynamic group.

TEAM Christy Kickoff This Thursday at 4:00 p.m.

May 5, 2010 by Fremont Business Park

Have you heard about TEAM Christy? If you were at the grand re-opening of the office complex a little over a week ago, you have. Or maybe you’ve bumped into Anna Mcquillan Rose recently, and she’s talked about it.

Here’s your chance to learn more about the group that is open only to Fremont Business Park at Christy Street tenants. And hear why similar groups Borelli Investment Company has started at two other office complexes in San Jose have become critical business enhancement tools for the owners and tenants there.

Introducing TEAM Christy

What is TEAM Christy? Let me start by telling you what it’s not.

  • It’s not a meeting where the building manager asks you if everything connected with building operations is okay (although often the building manager will be there if you need to talk to him afterwards)
  • It’s not a business group that starts out being free, and then you get asked to pay dues of $500 a year to be a part of it.
  • It’s definitely not a waste of your time as you work to make your business successful. In fact, it could be the best hour you spend all week.

TEAM Christy is a new benefit exclusively for the tenants here. The idea behind the TEAM Christy Building Business Network is you can do more as part of a team than on your own. So TEAM Christy will give you a golden opportunity to:

  • Meet your neighbors
  • Build valuable relationships
  • Patronize one another’s products and services
  • Discuss common challenges and brainstorm solutions together
  • Benefit from the additional brainpower provided by TEAM Christy’s support professionals, who are experts in marketing, communications, and design

Most importantly, you’ll learn. In TEAM Christy meetings, you’ll discover ways to make your business better — enhance strategies, marketing approaches, and sales methods. You’ll also learn how to apply new concepts, such as business social networking, more effectively. You’ll even get the opportunity to promote your products and services in this blog. Think of it— your name here!

And you’ll be connected into the TEAMS at other buildings Borelli manages — for additional networking opportunities and invitations to joint seminars on topics you can put to immediate use in your business.

What Are You Waiting For?

Have you registered yet for TEAM Christy’s first meeting? If not, why?

— Kickoff TEAM Christy Meeting, Fremont Business Park, Building 42840 Suite 208

Thursday, May 6th
4:00 p.m.

Your fellow tenants will be there. Will you?

Fremont Business Park at Christy Street Grand Re-Opening Was Definitely the Place to Be

May 3, 2010 by Fremont Business Park

More than 150 people took time out from their workday last Thursday to be a part of the ribbon-cutting for the grand re-opening of Fremont Business Park at Christy Street.

The rainy weather from earlier in the week cooperated by giving way to a warm, sunny day that was perfect for the barbecue lunch and ceremonies commemorating the re-opening of the three-building, 120,000 square foot office complex, following its extensive $2 million renovation.

Too Many People to Namedrop

The turnout included a large group from the Fremont Chamber of Commerce, existing and prospective Christy Street tenants as well as business associates, real estate brokers, plus many of the vendors who worked so hard to upgrade the office space. People enjoyed the food and beverages, had a great opportunity to network, toured the like-new space, and learned more about TEAM Christy — a business networking and marketing co-op group that will be open to every tenant in the complex.

There were also numerous winners in the raffle drawings that were held after lunch. The prizes included:
•    A personal training session with noted trainer Juan Torres of Torres Fitness
•    Fine wine donated by Borelli Motor Sports
•    Three rides at LeMans Karting in Fremont, donated by Rick Gaan of Club Sportiva
•    A $300 retail value vinyl banner donated by Millers Vinyl Graphics
•    A free inspection of a building’s HVAC system, donated by ESI

Christy Street Conference Room Booked Through Google Calendar

One of the newly completed spaces in Building 42840 is the Christy Street conference room — a well-equipped room with the latest audio-visual capabilities and other meeting tools.

To check on room availability and book the conference space for company use, Fremont Business Park tenants will need to go to the Google calendar created for the conference room by clicking here.

What to Do if You Missed Out

All is not lost. You can still tour the available offices and learn more about leasing the space. To set an appointment, e-mail Anna Mcquillan Rose, or call her at (408) 550-4826.
