Thank you for listening to episode 22 of the Welding Tips & Tricks Podcast. Today we would like to take a look back at 2016 and see what each of us accomplished, wished we could have done and unexpected things that came up. We also look into 2017 and share our goals for next year like what do we want to accomplish business wise, what equipment would we like to add to our shop, what would we like to learn new and maybe finish up goals from 2016. We also dive into becoming better people, Fathers, Husbands and friends. This is the basis of what drives us to succeed in business and the three of us feel it is important to remind ourselves, and the listeners, what is really important and drives us forward. We would really like to hear each listeners review of 2016 and your goals for 2017. The interaction between us and the listeners is what we are looking for and listening to your story really helps push us forward. Please take a few minutes to send us a email, weldingtipsandtrickspodcast@
