What a year it has been! As an industry, we started 2020 optimistic about what the year would bring: growth, product innovation, industry connection, progress toward solving the installation crisis, and much, much more. Sure, we’ve been able to do many of those things, but little did we know that we’d spend most of the year doing them virtually. The coronavirus has presented our industry with several never before seen challenges and roadblocks, but we’ve done what we can to quickly regroup, readjust and reconfigure in order to move our industry forward as best we can.
On a personal note, many of us have faced losses of many types this year: financial hardship, unemployment, illness and isolation. Simply put, 2020 has truly been challenging, to say the least. But we prepare for our December issue, we want to use our platform to celebrate the good things 2020 brought our readers; the bright spots, the blessings, the triumphs, the victories and the silver lining.
