Happy Saturday Chicago Southsiders,
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Please enjoy this time with your loved ones. One of the greatest gifts that we all have is time. Use this time to focus on what matters most to you, and to unwrap the beautiful gifts that can't be bought in stores.
Since we launched the Chicago Southsider in August, we've been able to highlight many emerging and experienced entrepreneurs on the South Side of Chicago. We also paid tribute to some of the leaders we lost in 2021. Here are some of our community features:
If you are interested in featuring local entrepreneurs on Chicago's South Side, let us know. Send us your story idea, short bio, and a statement of interest. Let us know why you are interested in being a community contributor and how often you would like to contribute. All emails should be sent to support@ceounlimitedfirm.com.
Thank you again for your support. Cheers to a prosperous 2022! Please consider becoming an annual subscriber today to help us continue to showcase the best of Chicago's Southside.
