In this episode, Steve Fretzin and David Ackert discuss:The importance of strategic networkingLeveraging existing contacts for business growthThe role of influence and prioritization in business developmentThe psychology behind relationship building Key Takeaways:Attendees should prioritize learning about others, finding strategic partners, and providing value instead of aggressively selling, as networking is about relationships, not transactions.Rather than amassing connections, professionals should build a “shortlist” of key clients, dormant contacts, and high-value prospects for deeper, more meaningful engagement.Research shows it takes about 14 interactions from first contact to first contract, so business developers must stay consistent and strategic instead of giving up early.The best strategic partners should be assessed on chemistry (rapport), commerce potential (key contacts), capabilities (competence), and collaboration (willingness to reciprocate). "What we found is that it generally takes our successful users about 14 interactions between first contact and first contract." —  David AckertGot a challenge growing your law practice?

A Minnesota requirement for covered entities to submit data on the costs they pay and the payments they receive for 340B drugs yielded its first annual report this past November. Today's guest, Minnesota Hospital Association Director of State Government Relations Danny Ackert, tells us why the report's findings don't tell the whole story.The Context for the Dollars The first Minnesota report concluded that covered entities received a net of $630 million in payments for 340B drugs in 2023 and paid $120 million to contract pharmacies and third-party administrators. But Ackert notes the figures do not account for what entities would have paid for drugs at non-340B prices, nor what pharmacy administrative costs they would have had if they did not have access to 340B.Where the Money GoesAckert notes that the report does not spell out how hospitals in the state use their 340B savings to stretch resources and provide more care and support to patients. He notes that Minnesota hospitals spend about $15 billion a year providing care. They also face an annual shortfall of about $1.8 billion from Medicare and Medicaid underpayments, a figure that does not even account for charity care, bad debt, and other unreimbursed hospital spending. Some rural hospitals in the state rely on 340B savings just to stay open.What Other States Can LearnAlthough submitting data for the report and countering misconceptions about its findings have been challenging for Minnesota hospitals, Ackert also notes that it has given them an opportunity to educate policymakers about 340B. By learning more about the report and following the state's example, hospitals in other states considering reporting mandates can put themselves in a position to explain to lawmakers why 340B is so vital.Resources:Minnesota 340B Covered Entity ReportEpisode 89: How New 340B Reporting Requirements Are Affecting Hospitals (February 2024)340B Medicare Hospital Pay Cuts Floated as an Option for Congress

  A veteran who became ensnared in a dispute with a local homeowners' association over a patriotic mailbox wrap says the display will get to stay. Retired U.S. Navy Officer John Ackert says the Southwood Residential Community Association is changing its rules and will now allow American flag wraps on mailboxes in the Southwood neighborhood. Ackert says he was informed of the news on Monday and that the rule change is already in effect. The decision came after Ackert received a letter stating that his flag mailbox cover violated HOA rules and would have to be removed. Ackert wrote an appeal and the SCRA held a meeting to review the rules before ultimately deciding on the change.  So Just be cautious prior to moving in… Your Realtor cannot change the restrictive covenants….and even if you read it one way .. like literally, they can still sue you… js. What is LRV? What is Light Reflectance Value?Understanding LRV is crucial when choosing color for the built environment, interior and exterior.  LRV – You may have noticed these three letters on manufacturer's color specifications, on the back of paint swatches or noticed an entire column dedicated on precious few square inches of space available in the index of paint fan decks. What do those letters stand for? What does the LRV number mean and how is it used? It is rather simple. Paying attention to a color's LRV can prevent poor color/paint color selections by helping you determine and evaluate certain color characteristics.Keywords: LRV, Light Reflectance Value, brightness, lightness, visual ergonomicsINTRODUCTION LRV is the acronym for Light Reflectance Value. As mentioned, LRV is on the back of most color swatches and in the index of all major brands' fandecks. Value is often confused with the term intensity. Intensity is about vividness or dullness – is the color clear or muted. Value is an important term used in color and it speaks strictly to the lightness or darkness of a color.What is LRV Light Reflectance Value?Light Reflectance Value (LRV) is the total quantity of visible and useable light reflected by a surface in all directions and at all wavelengths when illuminated by a light source. (ref. British Standard BS 8300:2001/A1:2005)  LRV is a measurement that tells you how much light a color reflects, and conversely how much it absorbs. LRV runs on a scale from 0% to 100%. Zero assumed to be an absolute black and 100% being an assumed perfectly reflective white. An absolute black or perfectly reflecting white does not exist in our everyday terms. Approximately speaking, the average blackest black has an LRV of 5% and the whitest white 85%. Some yellows can measure up into the 80's or 90's as well.What are the precautions of LRV Light Reflectance Value of Paint Colors?It is true that LRV Light Reflectance Value communicates a lot about a potential wall color, possibly provides even more of a sense of the color than those very small color chips – and we all know the issues with relying on just the small color chips.LRV refers to the percentage of light reflected by the paint color regardless of how much light is present. The LRV number is a measurement, a piece of data and is one of the few things about a color that is a consistent factor. No matter from what direction the natural light enters a room, no matter what reflection of color you get from the other elements in the room, no matter what other conditions exist that will affect the context in which the wall color is experienced, the LRV is the GARNET & GOLD - This is where we review a local or not so local wine (garnet) beer/bourbon (gold)  Thanks for listening!

Of all of the places future CFOs could have been employed in the late 1990s, the printing division of RR Donnelley might seem to have been among the least likely. However, it's important to note that this period predated the wide deployment of EDGAR, the database system that electronically automates the collection, validation, and acceptance of financial documents by the government's SEC division.   Hence the printing division of marketing communications giant RR Donnelley remained one of the country's largest hubs of activity surrounding the creation, printing, and submittal of financial documents. “For time-sensitive documents, there would be a deadline to be met each afternoon in order to enable documents to be flown and then hand-couriered to the SEC's offices,” recalls Celeste Ackert, who tells us that in order to better accommodate any clients who might drop by, the office space that she occupied with others featured a half-door whose bottom was closed and top always open. For Ackert, who had become an eagle-eyed project manager inside Donnelley's printing bullpen, the endless flow of financial documents served to satisfy a growing operations appetite before morphing into a portal from which to observe future career possibilities. “I would be flipping through these SEC documents and thinking to myself, ‘You know what?—perhaps I'd like to see myself in a prospectus someday,'” remarks Ackert, who after 6 years of serving Donnelley clients segued into a series of corporate finance jobs first by leveraging her printing operations expertise and subsequently by climbing the ranks as an FP&A all-star. Before leaving Donnelley, Ackert—much to her credit—decided to balance her “prospectus ambitions” with some added ballast for the journey ahead: an MBA degree. Comments Ackert: “I wasn't really certain how I was going to get there, but these two things equipped me with some fire.” –Jack Sweeney

Dave Ackert is the Chief Maple Officer of Maple Craft Foods Based out of Sandy Hook CT, Dave & his family began harvesting maple sap from trees at family homes in Connecticut and Vermont in 2001. He did this because he loved maple syrup and wanted kids to develop a healthy connection with natural food and where it comes from. After unthinkable tragedy struck our community in Sandy Hook, CT, he re-prioritized how he wanted to spend his time and energy. Dave & his family decided to start Maple Craft Foods in 2014 to help make people smile and develop healthier connections with food, with nature and with each other, while also supporting survivors and volunteers working to make our communities safer and sweeter. They still tap their own trees, but also use high quality, organic maple syrup supplied by friends who slow boil it traditionally, over an open flame, on a farm in Vermont, giving it its rich caramel color and robust taste. One taste of Maple Craft products will make you smile. Available in Whole Foods, Williams Sonoma and close to 1,000 other stores, Maple Craft Foods is on the rise. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Now is the time to mature those relationships. You need to invest time, not just check a box with a generic newsletter. You need to have real-time, authentic conversations. Business development is relationship development, not a sales transaction alone.  "Business development is the exercise of helping people be their best selves in the context of the relationships that can help their businesses grow." —  David Ackert Connect with David Ackert:  Website: AckertInc.comYouTube: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDc61u78wxY5EU8F4Gw5FY_pDKXnIjSRoLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/ackert-inc. & linkedin.com/in/davidackertTwitter: twitter.com/davidackertFacebook: facebook.com/ackertinc Connect with Steve Fretzin:LinkedIn: Steve FretzinTwitter: @stevefretzinFacebook: Fretzin, Inc.Website: Fretzin.comEmail: Steve@Fretzin.comBook: The Ambitious Attorney: Your Guide to Doubling or Even Tripling Your Book of Business and more!YouTube: Steve FretzinCall Steve directly at 847-602-6911  Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Restrictive Covenants - Covenants, conditions, and restrictions (also called "CC&Rs") are used by many "common interest" developments, including condominiums and co-ops, to regulate the use, appearance, and maintenance of property. If you think 5 years down the road, you might need a shed or a barn or a structure that will be expensive that won’t fit the look of the neighborhood, you might want to think about a different neighborhood… Wrapping your mailbox August 2017 Southwood neighborhood here in Tallahassee, which is an work, play, live.. St Joe designed neighborhood… very uniform A veteran who became ensnared in a dispute with a local homeowners' association over a patriotic mailbox wrap says the display will get to stay. Retired U.S. Navy Officer John Ackert says the Southwood Residential Community Association is changing its rules and will now allow American flag wraps on mailboxes in the Southwood neighborhood. Ackert says he was informed of the news on Monday and that the rule change is already in effect. The decision came after Ackert received a letter stating that his flag mailbox cover violated HOA rules and would have to be removed. Ackert wrote an appeal and the SCRA held a meeting to review the rules before ultimately deciding on the change. So Just be cautious prior to moving in… Your Realtor cannot change the restrictive covenants….and even if you read it one way .. like literally, they can still sue you… js. LRV FROM THE LRV GURU What is LRV? What is Light Reflectance Value?Understanding LRV is crucial when choosing color for the built environment, interior and exterior. LRV – You may have noticed these three letters on manufacturer’s color specifications, on the back of paint swatches or noticed an entire column dedicated on precious few square inches of space available in the index of paint fan decks. What do those letters stand for? What does the LRV number mean and how is it used? It is rather simple. Paying attention to a color’s LRV can prevent poor color/paint color selections by helping you determine and evaluate certain color characteristics.Keywords: LRV, Light Reflectance Value, brightness, lightness, visual ergonomicsINTRODUCTION LRV is the acronym for Light Reflectance Value. As mentioned, LRV is on the back of most color swatches and in the index of all major brands’ fandecks. Value is often confused with the term intensity. Intensity is about vividness or dullness – is the color clear or muted. Value is an important term used in color and it speaks strictly to the lightness or darkness of a color.What is LRV Light Reflectance Value?Light Reflectance Value (LRV) is the total quantity of visible and useable light reflected by a surface in all directions and at all wavelengths when illuminated by a light source. (ref. British Standard BS 8300:2001/A1:2005) LRV is a measurement that tells you how much light a color reflects, and conversely how much it absorbs. LRV runs on a scale from 0% to 100%. Zero assumed to be an absolute black and 100% being an assumed perfectly reflective white. An absolute black or perfectly reflecting white does not exist in our everyday terms. Approximately speaking, the average blackest black has an LRV of 5% and the whitest white 85%. Some yellows can measure up into the 80’s or 90’s as well.METHODS/PROCEDURESHow do color pros use LRV Light Reflectance Value of Paint Colors? Color consultants, architects, and designers use LRV data in several stages of color planning.Many examples can be found in the workplace. Careful planning for proper visual ergonomics is paramount in color design. From individual work surfaces to the outside walkways, ramps, hand-railings and everything in between. From a sustainability point of view, a wall color with a higher LRV supports lighting plans by helping to propagate daylight deep into the space. Thereby reducing the standard number of lighting fixtures required to enable employees to efficiently and safely perform their tasks.Find the perfect paint color – How can homeowners use LRV Light Reflectance Value of Paint Colors?Most important for the do-it-yourselfer is to refer to color specifications for exterior products. For example, vinyl siding. Painting vinyl siding with a color that has too low of an LRV, that absorbs too much light and energy and thus retains too much heat, could result in warped siding. Some paint manufacturers have developed special formulations for painting heat-sensitive exterior surfaces. They offer diverse color choices. However, if you do not use one of those specially formulated products, you are limited to a paint color that is within the same LRV range as the original color. Else you risk warping and voiding any warranties.Interior Color: LRV provides a reference as to how light or dark a color could look and feel once up on all the walls. Remember LRV runs on a scale of 0% to 100%, 50% would be a mid-value paint color. Fifty percent LRV is the common guideline for residential interiors.Below the mid-point of 50%, and you know the color will tend to be darker absorbing more light than it will reflect back into the room. Thus, an interior lighting plan that accounts for the darker paint color should be a priority.Colors with LRV higher than 50% will be lighter and will reflect more light back into the room than is absorbed.When sampling paint colors, paying attention to Light Reflectance Values as you try different hues, tints, tones, and shades create benchmarks that can assist you in arriving at color selections quicklyand efficiently. What are the precautions of LRV Light Reflectance Value of Paint Colors?It is true that LRV Light Reflectance Value communicates a lot about a potential wall color, possibly provides even more of a sense of the color than those very small color chips – and we all know the issues with relying on just the small color chips.LRV refers to the percentage of light reflected by the paint color regardless of how much light is present. The LRV number is a measurement, a piece of data and is one of the few things about a color that is a consistent factor. No matter from what direction the natural light enters a room, no matter what reflection of color you get from the other elements in the room, no matter what other conditions exist that will affect the context in which the wall color is experienced, the LRV is the LRV. However. . .LRV can be misleading when it comes to yellow. Yellow is one of the most reflective hues in the spectrum. In addition, the more area it covers it grows more intense exponentially. People err when choosing yellow more than any other color. They end up with a too bright Lemon Chiffon yellow that borders on needing eye protection to enter the room when they really were going for a softer, more muted Buttercream color. There is a difference between Light Reflectance Value or luminance and visual brightness albeit subtle. When choosing yellow wall colors, consideration of visual intensity – how bright or dull the color LOOKS – would be a more prominent consideration than the LRV Light Reflectance Value number.GARNET & GOLD - This is where we review a local or not so local wine (garnet) beer/bourbon (gold) Thanks for listening!

There's no bigger topic surrounding the defending NL champion Mets than the baffling downward spiral of Matt Harvey. The Dark Knight's pitching has fans and media alike scratching their heads. We brought back Daily News Mets beat writer Kristie Ackert on Friday to discuss what's going on with Harvey and all the other key topics surrounding the Mets heading into Memorial Day Weekend. Ackert weighed in on Harvey's decreased velocity, his fight to stay in the rotation and his no-show performance with the media earlier this week. She also gave us her take on what would serve Harvey best going forward.  We also spend time talking about if Steven Matz is actually benefitting from Harvey stealing the spotlight as the Long Islander quietly is putting up an Amazin' season. Ackert filled us in on what it was like to cover Bartolo Colon's home run, how David Wright's new routine is going, if anything can slow down Yoenis Cespedes and the too-long list of injured players.  Oh, yeah, and we also talked about the '86 Mets who are being celebrated this weekend at Citi Field.
