Read time: 1 minute and 41 seconds

Happy New Year!

Here we are, at the start of 2021, the last awful year is behind us and we're looking ahead to newer greener pastures.

Or we were, until, for those of us in the UK, we found ourselves flung into another national lockdown. 

Now, as we review the last 12 months and how well we achieved our goals and as we plan what we aim to achieve over the next year, everything feels a bit tainted by the pandemic. 

And that's okay. It's been a struggle. Whether you've found yourself working from home, struggling to educate the kids or just struggling to keep your business afloat and still going; we're all weathering the same storm. 

But let's take a moment to review the positives, the great things that happened in 2020 (yes, there were some!) and the things we can hope for in 2021. 

Great things that happened around the world in 2020:

• ​​The first COVID-19 vaccine was developed and released.
• The world became a lot more creative. 
• ​Humanity bonded over forced isolation and failed attempts at baking banana bread. 
• Italians blessed us with their beautiful balcony singing. 
• People of the world joined together to show their love for healthcare workers, teachers, writers, artists and nature as they kept us all sane throughout months of isolation. 

The best things to happen to Admin Angels UK in 2020:

• Because of our remote team, we were fortunate to be able to continue helping authors and small business owners throughout the year.
• While we had to understandable say goodbye to some clients, I couldn't be more grateful to those who supported Admin Angels UK in 2020.
• Our £99 per month social media plan continued to be our best-selling service allowing us to help small businesses stand out from the crowd and keep selling! 

What we can look forward to in 2021:

• Increased vaccinations. 
• An end to the pandemic and the re-opening of the hospitality industry.
• More creativity in marketing and productivity.
• Less stigma surrounding flexible working, working from home, home education and working parents!

Things we're looking forward to at Admin Angels UK in 2021:

• In February, I'll be celebrating 9 years in business!
• I've re-hashed our blog schedule and I'll be bringing you a new blog every two weeks, plus a mailing list sign up so you never miss a post. Watch this space!
• I'm currently reviewing our services and planning website updates and new services for 2021!
