We’re rolling along in the new year here at MILLIE. Our Social Media Coordinator shared her story in our #IamMILLIE series, we offered advice on the VA loan on SpouseLink.org and we share gorgeous photos of San Diego.

We’ve included links (for easy sharing), the copy for the posts (in case you’ve already used up all your creative juices today), the hashtags (for optimal millennial reach) and the MILLIE logos and branding information (in case you want to feature us on your front page or something).

If you’re one of our partners, please send us what’s been happening in your world lately by emailing me at alexis@gomillie.com.
