Happy New Year! I can't believe we are coming to the end of another decade. This decade will always hold importance to me as I graduated college, got married and started our agency all in the last 10 years.
The last year has been particularly busy here at Stormfront Productions. It seemed just like yesterday we were getting moved into our new building at 424 Main Street. It's hard to imagine that was last year this time already.
We were fortunate to have a great 2009 here at Stormfront Productions. With the economy the way it is I did have to personally put in longer hours and try new things to keep growing our agency, but in the end we had a solid year. Many thanks to all our clients and supporters!
We were also once again lucky enough to reward our employees with a net profit sharing bonus. Stormfront employees shared a percentage-based bonus taken from this year's profit margin in addition to the yearly raises.
In 2009, we added additional full and part-time staff, saw increased revenues for a sixth straight year and expanded our physical facilities by more than 400%.
Most importantly, because we were in a good position, we were able to give back to the local community in 2009 more than ever. Stormfront Productions donated to several great causes in the area including the Burton D. Morgan Business Plan Competition at Purdue University, the Purdue Center for Cancer Research 5K Walk / Run, a local Cystic Fibrosis Community Drive and the Downtown Development Task Force Committee. Additionally, the agency provided over $20,000 in charitable work this year for non-profits, charities and good causes including the Shelter Plus Weed and Seed initiative, LafCal.com and the Lafayette Symphony Orchestra.
The staff and I would like to wish everybody a safe and happy New Year. Best of luck in 2010!
