Happy Belated 2014!
It’s mid-January! How did this happen? The holidays this year were a blur — a good blur, but a blur nonetheless. We started 2014 on a very positive note adding a new client to our current list, and one we are hopeful will become another great long-term partnership further solidifying Monarch’s place in the small-business world. So, before we roll into February, we want to take a look back at 2013 and say THANK YOU to the clients we worked with last year. Without you, we wouldn’t be the success we are today!

Has it been more rewarding than we expected? Absolutely! We’ve met incredible people along the way, learned from them, worked with them and grew our company because of them. To our clients, both past, present and future –...

We’re getting ready for the 2013 Women Communicators of Austin (WCA) Get Smart Conference on September 13th where our own Chellie Thompson is speaking at one of the break-out sessions! The theme of the conference, Fail Forward, means not being afraid to fail but instead to focus on how you can learn and grow if you do. Chellie is delving into the topic of “Missing Your ROI” and giving some examples of personal, hard-taught lessons on how to recover the project should you miss your ROI. She’s ready with tactical advice and steps to identify when the investment is not paying off. WCA’s Maria Cammack caught up with Chellie last week to ask her...
