Behind every small business, there’s a story worth knowing. All the corner shops in our towns and cities, the restaurants, cleaners, gyms, hair salons, hardware stores – these didn’t come out of nowhere. – Paul Ryan

For those of you who don’t know, last night Mavidea hosted the McLean County Chamber of Commerce after hours.

Thank you to everyone who made this event a great success. We have an unbelievable team.

Part of the plan for the night was to send everyone around to different stations so that elves (Mavideans) could tell the story of how we helped a particular customer grow.

Having such a great event reminded me that we have a pretty special story too.

As another year comes to a close I have tried to make a few quick moments the last couple days to remind myself of just how blessed we are and how much we have accomplished this year.

We grew the team and our client base significantly.

We made significant progress on understanding the process for becoming the organization we want to be in the future.

It has been a great privilege to come alongside all of you on this journey.

And the best is yet to come.

Next year will bring more of the same.

More clients to serve, more Mavideans to add to the team, and a better company to work for and with.

I can’t wait to see how this story unfolds, thank you for being a part of it.

Merry Christmas.

Jake

PS – Still need volunteers to send out Daily Attitude Emails next week while I am out.
