Eclipse: News and views from Verve

Hi there 👋

 

Hooray! We’re back!!

 

You might’ve noticed a slight hiatus from us for a few weeks (several people have said to me in person, while out and about this week, that they’ve missed Eclipse. Which was lovely to hear!)

 

The reason being, at Verve we’re super busy bringing loads of super stuff to advisers (both clients and not-yet-clients) and we wanted to find a better way to be efficient with our communications. To let you know what was going on, and share all the interesting stuff we’re seeing, without bombarding your inboxes (we know what that feels like to be on the receiving end!)

 

^^ that was just a little interlude from our birthday celebrations, as Verve has turned 16 since our last Eclipse. So grown up now! 😍

 

So here is the all new Eclipse.


It’ll be my general musings (or those of whoever is in the hot seat), plus a round up of everything that’s going on (as you’ll see in the shiny bright sections below).

 

In addition, if you’re a client, you’ll be receiving Total Eclipse (geddit??) instead, which is all the same good stuff but with an extra section for client news. Anything we want to update you on; any freebies that are for clients only etc. This way we’re not doubling up on how many comms you receive, but can still ensure the right stuff goes to the right person.

 

The other change is the frequency. Instead of mandating 2pm every Friday as was previously the case, we’re going to collate the interesting items and, when Eclipse gets pleasantly plump, write some musings and hit send. So the frequency you receive this will depend on how busy we, and the wider world, are at any one time!

 

We hope you love the new format and we hope your inbox appreciates the lower volume of traffic hitting it.

 

Any comments, thoughts and suggestions are always welcome and, in the meantime…

 

Have a wonderful weekend all.

P.s. I’m debating bringing back my regular wine recommendation… let me know if it would be of interest!  🍷
