With the Thanksgiving holiday right around the corner, I’ve been thinking a lot about all I have to be thankful for. A loving wife and family, the success of our content marketing agency, a talented and hardworking staff, fantastic clients here in Colorado Springs, across the state, and around the country… and the list goes on and on.

On our wedding anniversary this year we checked into the downtown Hyatt Regency Hotel in Denver. A beautiful hotel, the service is always exceptional. In fact, after making the reservation online, I was very impressed that they not only sent us a confirmation email, but also followed up the day before with a thank you letter, directions for getting settled in, and announcements for the goings-on for the Independence Day celebrations.
