Reaching out to local business owners and letting them know that they are not in this alone. Having a relationship with a person/ company, that is here to help you as a true partner and to do all the heavy lifting is essential. We know from 2020 that consumers are using the internet more than ever to find local businesses, we want to help them be found and with no contract. 

1] Make sure that all of your standard forms show 2021 rather than 2020.

2] Make sure to download all of your credit card statements and bank statements.

3] Make sure that corporate Annual Report is filed at the beginning of the year rather than as the deadline approaches.  They sometimes get overlooked and the penalty for late filing is not friendly.

4] Gather all of your materials that have to go to the accountant.  Make an appointment to meet with your accountant early in the year rather than later to get the best service.

5] Review your memberships and magazine subscriptions to eliminate those that are no longer relevant.

6] Meet with your attorney to discuss any laws that have changed that pertain to your business structure and your estate planning issues.

I finish strong to start strong! Every day matters, there's no putting things off until the new year. I stay strong as I welcome in the new chapter. My goals continue to expand and I take action steps daily to create the life I choose to live! Practicing yoga, building up my running miles, preparing for a race in June, teaching intenSati - my favorite practice to keep my mind and heart in the game. Lasting sustainable change comes with daily action steps. Remembering 1% improvement 1 day at a time keeps me on track!

I've been prepping for 2021 for 6 months. My greater focus moving forward will be my other love and business for the last 10 years, Dale Gurvis Marketing, Resumes, Coaching and Recruiting. My concerns are few and I'm one who believes in improvise, overcome, adapt. Looking forward to future challenges and working through them on behalf of my clients. Though 2020 was not a good year in so many ways, through proper planning, the end result was not bad. My to-do list hasn't changed, rather just my approach and adjustments given COVID19.

I am taking the time to express gratefulness to my clients.

With each Holiday greeting, I am sending along a fun, quick activity the leader can use in the new year to talk about each other's talents and strengths.

I am more convinced than ever that we have to stop what we are doing with lockdowns, masks, overusing screens and keeping people six feet apart. Those processes have not been successful plus they are hurting people at the same time. I will be teaching about the immune system and how to build it, providing materials about precautions to take with masks and screen use, and reinforcing the real one meter or 3' apart recommendation by the WHO. Another projected year of those four things constitutes abuse, and we all must work together to stop it.

I am extending my 2020 promotional offers into the new year with some added features.  They include a field trip to a local mushroom farm followed by a culinary class Hungry 4 Healing.  Each of the 3 offers target immunity directly which we all need especially after this year.  Please reach out to me here or text Sylvia @(704)650-5767 for more info

With a breath of fresh air and an amazing offering. 

I am bringing a brand new "Got Peace" Series to our local colleges both Colorado Mtn. College right here in Glenwood and Western Colorado Community College in Grand Junction. 

Safe-in person-limited attendance live events. 

Just one workshop per month starting in February through May 2021. Topics will cover creating more centeredness and calm in all areas of your life. This includes food intake, chronic busyness, negative mind chatter and emotional overwhelm. 

Who couldn't use these tools now more than ever? Join me in a safe in person environment. Nothing compares to the exhilarating energy that abounds in the company of like minded individuals.

Look for the college flyers coming out in January 2021. Click here for more information.

This year definitely had its challenges. With that said, Our clients faired remarkably well.  Our no touch payment options & online ordering, really helped salvage and sustain quite a few Restaurants. With 2021 just around the corner, we would like to invite any Business that has questions about how ABM can help with the future growth of their Business to feel free to call. Happy New Year.....

I am planning on doing some virtual classes and zoom presentations. I am also trying new painting techniques.
