New Year, Same Mission, New Goals
Hello 2021! I know I speak for not only myself, but my entire team at Guarantee Restoration Services when I say we are happy to see a new year. Last year certainly brought its challenges for everyone. Not a single individual was not in some way affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, which, of course, continues to greatly impact our world.
Although 2020 brought many adversities, our team adjusted its “normal” practices and pivoted our services in order to surpass many of last year’s goals. It set the foundation to improve even more upon our goals for this new year. We are look forward to expanding our service areas soon, moving into our new corporate facility, further educating our team members, among other objectives this year.
STARTING THIS NEW YEAR OFF ON THE RIGHT FOOT, MONTHLY MEETINGS IN BATON ROUGE & KENNER
If you missed it, our marketing team shared our “GRS Year in Review” during the last week of the year. Check them out on our Facebook page!
NEW YEAR: GROWING GUARANTEE
In 2019, our company purchased land on Perkins Road near Pecue Lane in Baton Rouge. Once the land was cleared, the construction started. In April 2020, we started following the construction and updating our friends and partners on the building progress. A couple months later, we dubbed the series “Growing Guarantee,” and we share these videos to our social media pages monthly. Currently, the walls are going up and the electrical wiring is being installed. At the earliest, our Baton Rouge team members will move to the new facility in May or June 2021. We are so thrilled for the big move!
NEW YEAR: OUR TEAM’S RESOLUTIONS
Have you ever seen the phrase, “New Year, New Me”? It safe to say that everyone expects to see this statement ad nauseam when a new year rolls around. At this point, it has even become a cliché. Instead, focusing on goals and resolutions that will better what you have done to improve in the past is more important than changing completely. Oftentimes, resolutions are made, but actions are left out or fall to wayside. This year, our team will strive to put actions behind our goals to fully achieve them.
To end the aforementioned GRS Year in Review, our marketing staff asked our team members across our four branches to submit videos of their aspirations for 2021. Here is a snippet of their responses!
Our Team’s Resolutions:
- Mine – To continue on this great company my parents started over 47 years ago. Personally, I’d like to work a little harder at balancing my personal time and business time, so I have more time to spend with my family.
- Shelby C. (New Orleans) – To learn how to handle stress better and to work on her fitness every single day (and not flake out on it!)
