Thoughts on the New Year
by Joelle Kesling, Director of Sales + Marketing
Like many of you, I take the time to reflect each January. I think about where I’ve been over the last year both personally and professionally, and about how I can make positive changes for the coming year. I wouldn’t say these are necessarily New Year’s “resolutions”, because we all know how those generally turn out – but more of a time just to reflect.
What I’m reflecting on right now is you – our customers. I’ve been at MACC 35 years, and have gotten to know many of you very well. We share stories of work and family and all that goes along with both. We work together collaboratively when there are issues, and come out on the other side better than when we started. We continuously learn. We evolve. So my point of writing down all my thoughts on this is just to remind you that we – the entire MACC team – are here for all of you. We want to help, we want to guide, and we want to continue to collaborate so we can make things better for you. Reach out to us for the good, the bad, and everything in between.
I’ve said it a million times and it is most certainly cliché – but it’s not meant to sound insincere: we can’t fix what we don’t know is broken. So if there are things we need to help you through – whether it’s creating a new process for efficiency improvements, revising an old process because there is new functionality, explaining new functionality, helping you with continuing education … no matter WHAT, call us. Talk to us. Tell us what is going on so we can help. Oh, and you can always call when things are good and tell us that, too.
Thank you for trusting us with your business. It truly is important to us, and it’s why we all show up each and every day – we show up for you.
Happy New Year everyone!
