Issue 21 – Love is in the air, but so is COVID

Hey Smart Home Pros!


Love is in the air, but so is COVID—so stay inside and don’t hug or kiss anyone! Not even the pet cat you don’t even own. What? Anyways, we’ve got some AWESOME new mini drivers for you to check out. And if you haven’t purchased a Chime Video Doorbell yet, you should! Or, at least, check it out. Also, don’t forget to buy your significant other flowers, chocolates, and a super smart home integrated with everything your hearts desire.

XOXO,

ROSES ARE RED, THE CHIME DOORBELL IS NEW, JUST RING WITH YOUR ELBOW OR YOU’LL CATCH THE FLU

You guys, I spent wayyyyy too much time coming up with this poem. You know how hard it is to put love, a doorbell, and a pandemic all in one poem? It’s not easy. But here we are. I wanted to highlight this bad-ass product, ‘cause if you don’t have one yet, you really should! Makes life a lot easier. Like when the Doordasher has left the porch so it’s safe to go out and get your contactless dinner delivery.
