It's the 2023 Rockford Buzz Review!

Hey Rockford, this is Jake. And here's our 2023 review in 60 seconds.So first off, thank you so much for all of your love and support throughout the year.It was amazing to see our Facebook page grow to nearly 20,000 followers and our Instagram page to nearly 5000 followers this year. So that's been super awesome. On a personal note, I was able to get my drone pilot certificate this year, and so I've been flying my drone all over the area for local businesses and I'll actually be publishing some work that I did for Embassy Suites here later this week. So that's exciting. I also launched version six of The Rockford Buzz website in the spring, and I'm currently working on the code for version seven. Should be coming here in late January or February. And I launched Rock Buzz Network, which is the first steps in taking this buzz concept and spreading it to other cities around the region to make Rockford the city that exports positivity. So thank you so much, guys, for all the love, and I can't wait to see what 2024 brings. I'll see on the flip side, by.
