2 Squares Solutions is celebrating its 15th anniversary this month, a milestone we believe is definitely worth celebrating!
"I would like to thank all of our clients and partners, who are committed to our accomplishments and the success of our projects," said Robert J. Pillow, President. "Our ongoing success would be impossible without you. Thank you to all of our customers and partners who continue to believe in our services and people, and who have helped us endure and thrive throughout the years. We celebrate this milestone because of you."
But even as we take a breath to commemorate this achievement, we know this is not the time to sit back and become complacent. We must continue to focus and execute on the things we do well and develop the areas in our business that need improvement. It is time to reflect on the wisdom gained, the successes, and lessons learned along this journey.
