While we find our way through the COVID-19 situation, I loved this wisdom found on my Twitter feed last Tuesday morning.

We remain laser-focused on identifying and delivering the information you need to serve your clients.

All the content that we put forth will be developed based on feedback we gather and analyze, and they will provide you with the information you need so that you and your clients can succeed in this new reality, which is tumultuous and odd.
