The "Adam Smith, Esq." Monthly Newsletter: Please Sign Up
You may have noticed that about three months ago I launched a new feature here at "Adam Smith, Esq.:" A free monthly e-mail newsletter, This Month's Best from "Adam Smith, Esq."
I intend it as a concise, pithy summary of a few of the more trenchant, widely-read, controversial, or just plain entertaining entries of the past month. The first few issues have recapped and linked to the leading stories of the past month, and occasionally serendipity has uncovered common themes I was unaware of as I composed each separately.
I guarantee the newsletter will be family-friendly—and suitable for forwarding to colleagues and friends.
So how's it going, and why am I mentioning this now?
First of all, I am pleased to report that in barely 10 weeks' time the subscriber list has grown to over 500 individuals from all corners of the English-speaking legal world. Moreover, it's a remarkably sophisticated and high-caliber group, judging from my quick scans of the names, positions, and firms the subscribers are from: Nearly 10% are Managing Partners or Firm Chairs.
Anecdotally, I was meeting the Executive Director of an AmLaw 50 firm recently, and I happened to have noticed that the Chair of his firm was a subscriber; when I mentioned this to him, his reaction, as a non-subscriber, was memorable.
Second, while the newsletter began life as a handy summary and collection of the "greatest hits" of "Adam Smith, Esq." during the prior month, I plan on introducing new content into the newsletter each month which will not be published on the site and will thus be available only to subscribers. By doing this, am I tipping my hand that I really really want you to sign up? Well, yeah:
- It's free; and
- I will never compromise your information; it will remain confidential.
So what have you got to lose?
Please join this special "Adam Smith, Esq." community today. And, while you'd immediately regret such a rash and impulsive act, you can of course "unsubscribe" through a link at the end of each and every newsletter.
See you next month in your inbox!
