We Celebrate Our Women Around Town 2021

We got off to a slow start in 2021 while we waited for a vaccine that would protect us from Covid-19. Even when vaccines became available, months would pass before many of us would emerge from isolation. Nothing, however, could hold back the incredible women we wrote about this past year. They didn’t hit the pause button, but kept moving ahead, doing what they do best. It has been an honor to tell their stories on Woman Around Town and they continue to inspire us.

We include these amazing women in a two-part slide show. Enjoy!

Beyond Blinds: The Dual Functionality of Rolling Shutters

Most business owners spend money on CCTV, alarm systems, roller grilles, padlocks, and still get surprised when a break-in happens, or when they open up on a Tuesday and find their merchandise bleached out and faded from months of direct sunlight sitting behind glass. The problem isn’t your security budget. It’s that you’ve been treating two separate business problems, protection and climate control, as two separate expenses. They don’t have to be.

The Science Behind GLP-1 Supplement Drinks for Managing Sugar Cravings
