This week Mavidea celebrated it’s 13th birthday.

On each anniversary, I’m reminded of a couple of central themes that stand out over the years.

Thankfulness – man, do we have a lot to be thankful for. To be able to work with each other and do meaningful work in service to customers is more rare than common, and we get to do that every day. I’m so very thankful for all the people that have made this whole journey possible and worthwhile at the same time.

Relationships – we are built for relationships. Business is a conduit to deliver value to others through meaningful relationships. Over the years we’ve seen new children, friendships, and even a marriage. Life has happened in and around Mavidea (both good and bad), but through it all we’ve been able to lean on and into each other.

Mortgage/rent payments – every year on our anniversary I spend a few minutes thinking about how our team has helped each other make all those rent payments, mortgage payments, El Porton dinners, birthday presents, COVID19 toilet paper purchases, and all the other incidentals of life. The money that has come through our business has been spent on making the lives of our employees better. Sure, we could have done better, but we’ve made a lot of life possible for those that matter most to us – our team.

Thank you all for being a part of that journey. Even if it’s been from afar, you have made a difference and will continue to do so.

I’m proud of all the Mavideans and their families who have made it all possible.

The best is yet to come.

Happy Anniversary, Mavidea.

Make it a great day.
