By Kristin Jackson, CFO of United Communications
As we step into 2025, all of us, myself included, at United Communications are working harder than ever to bridge the digital divide in our beloved Middle Tennessee. We’re gearing up for another year of expanding our fiber network and upgrading our infrastructure to connect even more underserved communities.
For me, the start of a new year is always a chance to reflect on my goals and renew my focus. This year, one of United’s top priorities is ensuring that more of our neighbors have access to fast, reliable internet. I truly believe in the power of technology to improve lives—whether you’re advancing your career with online certifications, improving your health through telehealth, or staying connected with those who matter most.
At United, we’re here to support you every step of the way, helping you make the most of your digital journey and achieve your goals in the year ahead.
Maintain Your Health with Telehealth Sessions
Healthcare has now become more accessible thanks to telehealth services. Real-time communication with doctors, remote monitoring of health conditions, and faster medical record transfers are just a few ways internet connectivity is transforming healthcare. With United’s reliable fiber internet, we’re helping to bridge the healthcare gap, making these innovations accessible to more Middle Tennesseans every day.
Improve Your Fitness with Online Personal Coaching
If health and fitness are part of your New Year’s resolutions, our internet service allows you to stream workout videos, connect with personal trainers online, and even join live fitness classes from anywhere. This flexibility can help you stay committed to your fitness goals regardless of your schedule or external conditions.
Boost Your Small Business
Supporting small businesses is important to me and is at the heart of our mission at United, particularly in rural areas where high-speed internet access is limited. By investing in local infrastructure and advanced technology, we provide businesses with the tools they need to stay competitive. Small business owners rely on these solutions to streamline operations and engage with customers more effectively. To address the challenges of cost and complexity in network management, we’ve introduced United BizControl—a secure, managed network service designed to support growth and ensure long-term success.
Advance Your Career with Online Certifications
The first step towards career advancement is often education. With United’s ultra-fast internet, you can seamlessly access a plethora of online courses and certification programs that could be pivotal to boosting your career. Whether you’re looking to enter a new industry or climb the ladder in your current field, the ability to stream educational content without interruptions can provide a smooth and enriching learning experience.
Connect More Meaningfully with Family and Friends
In our increasingly globalized world, staying connected with loved ones is more important than ever. With United Communications, video calls and virtual family gatherings can be smoother, reducing frustrating service interruptions or poor video quality. Reliable technology helps foster stronger relationships despite physical distances, bringing you closer to your family and friends through crystal-clear audio and video.
Make the Most of The New Year
United Communications is more than just your internet service provider—we are your partner. By choosing United, you’re also embracing a community-focused approach that aims to improve your quality of life through technology. As Michael R., one of our valued customers, puts it:
“I have been on a Cloud Nine ride. Services have been great, and their expansion to reach people with quality internet has been phenomenal. Thank you, United team, for your great service.” – Michael Reese, United Customer
