We get some great interns here at New Harbor Group, and we give them meaningful, important work to do. Recently our interns Amy Belhumeur (University of Rhode Island, Class of 2014) and Rachael Yeardon (Providence College, Class of 2015) completed two such projects. 
The second offered a window into how active and effective the Rhode Island business community is in the elections process.

To learn more, take a look at my analysis of the findings in the most recent edition of "What Counts", the on-line e-newsletter of the R.I. Society of CPAs.

I'd be interested in your thoughts on these issues - feel free to give me a call, or e-mail me.

Best,

 

Breaking: 21st Century Now Underway


It's amazing, but we're still receiving printed newsletters, sent via U.S. Mail, in the Year 2014.  Please click here to read about a much better way to tell your story, and how we help ease people into the 21st Century.

There aren't many better ways to establish your credentials than getting articles under your byline placed in print or digital publications. 

For instance, local businessman Charlie Townsend is one of the pioneers of the cellular phone industry. Recently, we worked with him to get a piece published in the Wall Street Journal about the 30th anniversary of the first cellular phone call (placed by Alexander Graham Bell's grandson!) and what's ahead for the industry. A few weeks later, we helped Charlie place a piece in the Huffington Post about how the industry can overcome the challenges it will face as it continues its explosive growth.

After you read Charlie's pieces - here and here - think about areas where you are an expert, and how we can help you use vehicles like these to get noticed by prospective clients, customers and partners.
 
A Rhode Island Success Story
 
During the recent recession both the local economy and the banking sector nationally have struggled. But one local bank defied those trends.

Since 2009, Coastway Bank has undergone a complete transformation, made possible by the bank's ability to thrive, despite the lagging economy. In the past four years the bank has grown by almost 30 percent. Recently, under the leadership of President and CEO Bill White, Coastway "went public," with an initial public offering of stock (IPO) on the NASDAQ exchange.

It's been a real pleasure to provide Coastway with communications counsel over the past several years - first during their conversion from a credit union to a bank, then for their transition to a mutual bank and then to a publicly traded company.

The capital from the IPO will allow the Coastway team to do what they have done, regardless of outside forces, for many years - continue to grow and meet the needs of their customers.

The bottom line?  Coastway is a real Rhode Island success story.

Nice Ink!

If a picture is worth a thousand words, a picture on the cover or front page of a publication may be worth a million. Recently, our clients were the subject of two great pictures - one on the front page of the Providence Journal, the other on the cover of the SO Rhode Island.  Take a look!
