I continued fostering relationships from the new businesses I generated last fiscal, and continued working with them during this fiscal. I am very grateful for all of my clients' continued business with me.

On top of that, I continued to generate more new business throughout the year while continually making IDG Connect more relevant in this highly competitive business environment.
