2019 By the Numbers: An A+ Member Exclusive

Hello and welcome to your annual report chock-full of numbers and images that represent those numbers! Since 2016 we've been providing this information to our beloved A+ members. We did it in 2017 and then I did it in 2018 and then, believe it or not, I did it again — in 2019.
