Our Experience
Prior to uniting forces to create www.RetirementConnection.com we were individually known as: a marketing director, a graphic artist, a web master, a family care giver and a teacher. Our collaborative skills are a living example that the sum is greater than the individual parts. Our initial team met while working on a project in the Spring 2000 and continued to refer to the others' services. While building our team, we have added members that share a common vision of providing consistent direction and focused marketing services to a specific audience. Our collective experience and passion has been concentrated within the senior industry for more than 20 years and we recognize that it is best to - "do what you love, and love what you do".
Our Mission
To provide a comprehensive community resource for boomers, older adults, individuals with disabilities, caregivers and service providers, to easily access information about retirement and aging. To provide a gateway for professionals within the retirement industry to share and access information, announcements, networking and community events more effectively. To offer providers a unique and affordable venue to promote their services and products.
Our Vision
To be the primary resource for older adults, caregivers and providers within the local community.
