Thanksgiving is a special time of year. It’s a time to break away from all our daily distractions. A time to come together and be close to our loved ones. And perhaps, a time to pause and take inventory of all the things we have to be thankful for in our lives.

 No matter what you have going on in your life this Thanksgiving, I hope you will take this opportunity to give thanks for the good stuff you have going on. There is always something to be thankful for, even if it’s simply being around for one more Thanksgiving.

As the Editor-In-Chief of CarCareCONNECT, I am thankful for you – the first people to discover our new blog and to read our first posts. I hope you will find our articles helpful and gain some fresh perspective for growing your shop through managing your marketing, sales and customer service activities better.

I am also thankful for our growing team of writers, editors, designers and other professionals dedicated to helping us realize our vision of becoming the leading source of marketing content for auto repair marketers – anyone responsible for finding, getting and keeping customers for their shops. We have a long way to go, and a lot of work to do to get there, but we have an incredibly talented team gearing up to make CarCareCONNECT a destination you will visit often in 2017 and beyond.

Outside of my role as the leader of our publishing efforts for you, I too am thankful to have this time to spend with family and friends. Time to give thanks for the gifts I have in my life today. And finally, to enjoy a few days away from work to rest, recharge, and come back ready to do even more to make CarCareCONNECT a valuable resource for helping you grow your shop. Please let us know what information you would be most thankful to see us write about in the coming months.

Please let us know what information you would be most thankful to see us write about in the coming months – or if there is anything else we can do to help you grow your shop. On behalf of the CarCareCONNECT team, I would like to personally wish you a sincere and heartfelt Happy Thanksgiving!
