Editor’s Letter

PUBLISHER’S LETTER

As this copy hits your hand, 2021 is now in the rearview mirror! 2019 to current day has been a trial for many families! I have a wife and child that have faced various health battles throughout the year, and I just lost my mom in September. I have friends that have lost children, brothers, sister, mothers, fathers, businesses, and jobs over these past years. That reminds me why the rearview mirror is so insignificant compared to the front windshield. We have to look back and remember those challenging times, but if we focus on that small mirror, we will never be able to drive well going forward.

Let us make 2022 the year of focusing on going forward! In this issue we bring you our Top Products & Services for the 2021 Issue. The Top Products Issue contains products & services from your favorite suppliers in the industry and can be extremely helpful for yearly budget planning! Dan Messina’s Insightful Talk on the “Holiday Season,” D.J. Harrington drops some “Fuel for Thought” reminding us that our “Goals Map out our Actions,” and finally our Expert Witness James Lewis asks “Can Doing it Wrong Count for Experience”?

In this issue we will look at service providers: Insurance companies competing in this market and allow them to relay information on how they can help you navigate and choose what works best for your business. Our Feature on Finance also provides us with valuable information on Financing. Jeremy Tsakiris, Vice President of Sales for Alliance Funding explains “Financing Facts: Must Knows before Financing.”

We hope you enjoy this issue, and we appreciate your readership and support over the past 10 + years! Hug your family, stay safe and hope you had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Till the next issue, be safe!
