In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Bruce La Fetra discuss:The importance of understanding your best clientsMarketing strategy for law firms in a competitive landscapeThe difference between experts and advisorsThe power of client testimonials and validation Key Takeaways:The best clients are not only more profitable but also easier to work with, as they buy faster, pay more, and create fewer headaches, making them essential for long-term business growth.Law firm marketing should shift from highlighting expertise to showcasing the real-world impact of legal services, such as improving business operations, reducing risks, or increasing revenue.Client testimonials are most effective when they emphasize specific, measurable outcomes—like increased working capital or faster contract execution—rather than vague endorsements.A law firm's messaging, from its website to client conversations, should be strategically crafted to reflect what its best clients truly value, ensuring better alignment and stronger relationships. "So, a lot of times, people don't know why their firm is successful. They know they have clients that they love working with, and those clients would go nowhere else, but they don't know why." —  Bruce La Fetra Got a challenge growing your law practice?

In this episode, Chris speaks with Vivek Gandhi, the Portfolio Manager of Putnam International Equity Fund. Based in London, he is responsible for conducting fundamental analysis and valuation of mid-sized and large companies in non- U.S. markets, including Europe, China, and Japan.During the conversation, they touch on many topics, including: Today's international equity landscapeThe opportunities that exist internationallyThe importance of international exposure in portfoliosHow to analyze international stocksStakeholder vs shareholder viewWhy active management is crucial when investing internationallyClick for full disclosureThis material is for informational and educational purposes only.

It is not intended to address the needs, circumstances, and objectives of any specific investor. This information is not meant as tax or legal advice. Investors should consult a professional advisor before making investment and financial decisions and for more information on tax rules and other laws, which are complex and subject to change. Consider these risks before investing: International investing involves currency, economic, and political risks. Emerging market securities carry illiquidity and volatility risks. Investments focused in a single region may be affected by common economic forces and other factors. In addition, events in any one country within the region may impact the other countries or the region as a whole. Because the fund currently, and may in the future, invest significantly in European companies, the fund is particularly susceptible to economic, political, regulatory, or other events or conditions affecting issuers in Europe. European financial markets have in recent years experienced increased volatility due to concerns with some countries' high levels of sovereign debt, budget deficits, and unemployment. Investments in small and/or midsize companies increase the risk of greater price fluctuations. Growth stocks may be more susceptible to earnings disappointments, and value stocks may fail to rebound. The value of investments in the fund's portfolio may fall or fail to rise over extended periods of time for a variety of reasons, including general economic, political, or financial market conditions; investor sentiment and market perceptions; government actions; geopolitical events or changes; and factors related to a specific issuer, geography, industry, or sector.These and other factors may lead to increased volatility and reduced liquidity in the fund's portfolio holdings. Risks associated with derivatives include increased investment exposure (which may be considered leverage) and, in the case of over-the-counter instruments, the potential inability to terminate or sell derivatives positions and the potential failure of the other party to the instrument to meet its obligations. Our investment techniques, analyses, and judgments may not produce the outcome we intend. The investments we select for the fund may not perform as well as other securities that we do not select for the fund. We, or the fund's other service providers, may experience disruptions or operating errors that could have a negative effect on the fund. You can lose money by investing in the fund.

#Bitcoin #Environmental #GoldI'd like to welcome everyone to my new PODCASTDave's Daily Crypto TakeIn this channel I will be providing you with news on a daily basis about cryptocurrency, bitcoin, blockchain, FIAT. My main purpose is to share UNBIASED news and updates. Ultimately I learn and hopefully you learn while I go on this journey.ARTICLES used in today's video:https://www.forbes.com/sites/billybambrough/2021/07/12/leaked-jpmorgan-report-reveals-extreme-bitcoin-price-volatility-warning-as-ethereum-crash-adds-to-100-billion-crypto-rout/Leaked JPMorgan Report Reveals Extreme Bitcoin Price Volatility Warning As Ethereum Crash Adds To $100 Billion Crypto RoutBitcoin has swung wildly through 2021, falling along with the second-largest cryptocurrency ethereum after huge runs and dashing hopes that growing adoption among retail investors and institutions would bring stability to roller coaster crypto markets.The bitcoin price is down around 50% from an April peak that saw it more than double in the first three months of the year (subscribe now to Forbes' CryptoAsset & Blockchain Advisor and beat the market). Ethereum has fallen even further from its May high of well over $4,000 per ether token, today dropping a further 5% and dipping under $2,000 amid a cryptocurrency sell-off that's wiped around $100 billion from the combined crypto market in less than a week.https://www.thestreet.com/crypto/news/fidelity-digital-assets-to-increase-staff-by-70-percentFidelity Commits to Crypto, Increases Digital Assets Staff by 70%Growing demand from institutional investors has pushed Fidelity to increase its Fidelity Digital Assets team by 70%. According to an article from Bloomberg, Fidelity Digital Assets will add around 100 workers to offices in Salt Lake City, Boston and Dublin. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/12/cryptocurrency-trading-volume-plunges-as-interest-wanes-following-bitcoin-price-drop.htmlCryptocurrency trading volume plunges as interest wanes following bitcoin price dropTrading volumes at the largest exchanges, including Coinbase, Kraken, Binance and Bitstamp, fell more than 40% in June, according to CryptoCompareIn June the price of bitcoin hit a monthly low of $28,908; a daily volume maximum of $138.2 billion was down 42.3% from the intra-month high in May.https://ambcrypto.com/is-it-worth-betting-on-sushi-in-the-short-run/Is it worth betting on SUSHI in the short run?SUSHI's price action over the past year has been quite dramatic and the asset has had its share of ups and downs. As a matter of fact, it witnessed a massive spike of over 424% in the aforementioned time period. The alt's uptrend started gaining traction from November last year and within a span of four months, SUSHI recorded its $23.38 ATH.Right after scripting history, the asset was subjected to a downtrend. Earlier in June, SUSHI lost its $9.4 support level and has been trading below that mark since then. What's more, SUSHI that was the sixth-largest DeFi token a couple of months back, is now eighth on the list and its Total Value Locked (TVL) that reflected $4.4 billion in early May plunged to merely $2.76 billion at the time of writing. https://venturebeat.com/2021/07/12/how-gold-backed-cryptocurrency-is-changing-the-modern-investment-landscape/How gold-backed cryptocurrency is changing the modern investment landscapeThe proliferation of online markets and the introduction of new cryptocurrencies has launched a brand-new type of token. Companies are now digitizing the value proposition of gold, one of the oldest, most stable currencies in the world. The result is a liquid crypto asset backed by the benefits of physical gold. Blockchain technology enables financial leverage, liquidity, and monetized physical gold holdings.In 2021, Bitcoin and Ethereum have been the market leaders, posting record highs for investors. But then came the crash in the wake of Elon Musk's offhanded tweets, plus China promising increased regulation. This kind of volatility attracts recreational investors who see big risks as the natural corollary of even bigger gains. But more cautious investors have stayed on the sidelines, unwilling to take those chances.https://www.gobankingrates.com/investing/crypto/environmentally-sustainable-cryptocurrencies/15 Environmentally Sustainable Cryptocurrencies To Invest In Right NowCryptocurrency might be best known for its potential financial risk, but it's increasingly under fire for another less-than-desirable issue. In recent months, concern has swirled around the negative impact that crypto is having on the environment. That impact, in a nutshell, is that as cryptocurrency trading becomes more common, so does energy use as a result of it.The Cost of Mining Coins and Tracking TransactionsEstimating the energy consumption involved with cryptocurrency mining is a complex task, but it's generally understood as the energy used to digitally mine crypto coins and process trading transactions plus the power usage of the hardware devices used to support these efforts. Estimates vary, but some analysts place the annual energy consumption tied to crypto as being on par with a small country.https://alternative.me/crypto/fear-and-greed-index/https://coinmarketcap.com/Please subscribe, like, and share so that more and more people can view this content.DISCLAIMER: I will never give any financial advice.

What does the Turkey from Christmas Vacation have to do with the story of the shepherds from the bible? You'll have to stick around to find out because the answer will get your gizzard! Yes, pun intended :). Love what's happening at Harmony? Help us advance the Kingdom, support our online ministry (harmonychurch.cc/give). Got kids? Check out Harmony Kids online (updated weekly) https://www.harmonychurch.cc/harmony-kids-online/!------------------- Sermon Notes Slide Key: Sermons always start with “OPENING ILLUSTRATION:” and end with “CLOSING ILLUSTRATION:"Red = Scripture slides (reflect formatting of scripture on slides, i.e. - underlines, bold, etc.)All scriptures are NIV unless otherwise notedBold = Slide text“b" or “B” on a line by itself = Slide break/New slideBold ALL CAPS WORDS = heading to be ignored[some text] = programming notes to be paid attention to -----------------------------[MIKE - have someone read Micah 5:2-4 during worship sometime before sermon - can be between songs] OPENING ILLUSTRATION:Years ago, a buddy and I were in Phoenix for a conference, he was a big Phoenix Suns fan and we happened to be like two blocks away from where they played. So, we got tickets in the nose bleed section and started watching the game - they were playing the Houston Rockets back when Yao Ming was playing for them. By half-time Phoenix was getting skunked, it was so bad that almost everyone that had courtside tickets left. I looked at my buddy and was like, “this is our one chance, let's go down and see if we can get in some of those seats…” It was crazy, we sat 4 rows back for the rest of the game and watched these guys play ball. It was crazy to watch Yao Ming lumber across the court, taking one step for every two of lots of the players. It was a crazy moment, it was like it was a basketball game just for us and our closest 400 friends :) Have you ever had one of those moments where you got to experience something special, a once in a lifetime experience? Maybe you got to meet the president or had lunch with Harrison Ford… TAKE THE TURN:I need to take you to one of those moments if I can… BREAKLet's set the scene… [Stage lights go blue - give the sense that it's evening] It's dark out, the middle of the night…You are in Israel, 6 miles south of JerusalemYou are in these fields that are situated on terraced hills, if you can picture it, the edges of each terrace are built up with rock walls, limestone caves dot the landscape-it is an oasis in the middle of a desert landscapeThe only sounds around you are the sounds of the evening with the occasional sound of a bleating sheep… It… is… quiet…Everyone has gone to sleep except for you because it's your watch of the night, to guard the sheep… and that's when it happens…Well, let me read it to you [Don't put scriptures on screen this time, keep camera on Kent] Luke 2:8-208 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them,[I will say, “I said, the glory of the Lord shone around them!” At this point, bring up single spot, bright white on Kent, rest of stage remains blue]and they were terrified. in the Greek, it actually says Megas Phoebos - greatly fearful You don't know this, but as far as these guys know. God has been silent for over 400 years The last thing God had said to the people of Israel was Malachi 4:5-65 “See, I will send the prophet Elijah to you before that great and dreadful day of the Lord comes. 6 He will turn the hearts of the parents to their children, and the hearts of the children to their parents; or else I will come and strike the land with total destruction.” and then….silence… BREAKAND THEN... silence broken. These shepherds, out in a field are the first people to have a public proclamation from God in 400 years…-to help you put that in perspective, the United States is 244 years old-Maybe this helps put into perspective - it was 400 years ago that the Mayflower left England  For 400 years the people of God had been waiting for God to move, to bring the Messiah to free them-they had gone through revolutions and failed attempts to restore the glory of Israel…And then it happens These Shepherds in a field are visited by an Angel and the hillsides are lit up…Let's keep reading…10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people.11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” Listen, you might not know this, but shepherds were not the elite of society - some preachers will make it out like they were religiously unclean, which isn't true - but they certainly weren't considered the high society…-They were likely poor, lower class, they were likely young and didn't have much… They were the guys in the nose bleed section… but it is in this moment that God does something crazy-He brings the nosebleed to center court… God breaks His silence and proclaims that a savior - the Messiah has been born This is huge news-do you understand the word savior? these guys would have been thinking small - Messiah as a King who would rescue Israel from Roman occupation and set up a physical Kingdom that all people would come and worship Yahweh But The Kingdom Jesus came to set up was much more subversive than that. His Kingdom was inside you and it's eternal. He wasn't overthrowing just the Romans, He was overthrowing the sin in the human heart. Making dead things alive. Making lost things found. Making blind things see It is this message that the Shepherds were privy too and then it happens-it's as if Heaven cannot contain itself and rips through the barrier of eternity…[Bring up more white stage lights]13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven,    and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.”16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them.19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told. Heaven bursts through with angels saying, “Glory to God in the highest heaven and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests”-The shepherds blow out of there, and run through the town search for a woman who has just given birth - can you picture as they come up to the manger door finding where Jesus was born.  They pause to take a breathe as the door opens, Joseph and Mary astounded that anyone would be at the door that time of night… The shepherds tell them the story and they are met with the most incredible birth announcement ever… Here's what's crazy to me… No one else knew about it…Everything took place in a field and a manger. For the rest of Bethlehem, they slept through the birth of the savior The only reason people knew what happened  is because the shepherds told them-they spread the word that Heaven had come to earth I believe God is still choosing to use people like those shepherds to spread the message of his love to a sleeping world…The message that a savior has been born into this world a messiah, King - who longs to restore your broken, heal your dead, give site to your blind… And it is us, the normal, the shepherds, the Line workers, the bank tellers, the truckers, the office workers that God has given the message to… CLOSING ILLUSTRATION: One of my favorite scenes from the Movie Christmas Vacation is when they've cooked the Christmas dinner and Chevy Chase goes to cut into the turkey - There's this big build up to the moment, where everything is solemn, the music starts and Chevy stands up to carve  the turkey and he says, “Katherine, if this turkey tastes half as good as it looks, I think we're all in for a very big treat!” As he goes to cut it, the turkey splits apart and it disintegrates…They cooked it so much there's nothing there… Listen, we are living in a time right now that needs hope more than any other.  People are dying, literally, people are depressed, Christmas lights went up earlier than ever this year…  But do you know what most people are going to feast on this year, a fake hope.  It's all going to be plastic reindeers, Santa's behind plexiglass, and pretending like the pain of the year doesn't exist. This Christmas, don't let the narrative be about Santa and Reindeers, if ever there was a  time for real hope, it was now! Church, let's find creative ways this year to tell people the story of Jesus coming to rescue the world…
