Update from the President and CEO of Top Class Actions

Good morning! We’ve been busy this week switching mailing list providers. We were using InfusionSoft, but frankly, our experience was a terrible one when it comes to mass emails. Now that our newsletter goes out to more than 140,000 people every week, having a solid mass email provider is critical. Unfortunately, InfusionSoftdoesn’t seem to be able to reliably send out this type of newsletter well. We are still using them for some other functionality but I wouldn’t recommend them.

 

On the home front, we had a great week with friends and movies. It’s great that the girls can sit through a movie in a theater, even when they have friends next to them, and MOSTLY stay quiet and enjoy it. We took them to see Book of Life and everyone really enjoyed it. I thought it would be a bit much for them since it’s a Guillermo del Toro movie but it wasn’t. They liked it so much they want to see it again! I’m happy they had such a good time. It capped off a great family weekend.

 

That’s what’s happened around here. Now on to the latest lawsuit and settlement updates!

Warm Regards,

Scott Hardy

President
