From back-to-school milestones and Charles testing his new Supra, to Christi and Leslie’s VIP experience and Betty’s Books grand opening on 9/20, this issue is packed with fresh stories and ideas. We’re also sharing mid-year reviews and practical strategies to help you navigate change and grow your business with confidence.

Nothing says the end of summer quite like sharpened pencils, fresh backpacks, and first-day smiles. We’re excited to share a special glimpse into our Tzinberg family as some of our favorite student's head back to class!

Photo’d above, from left to right, are Christi’s and Leslie’s children, each starting an exciting new school year. Christi’s daughters are both reaching big milestones—Brooke is beginning her senior year of high school, while Bella heads into 2nd grade. Pictured below them is her son, Logan, who is a junior at Mizzou.

Next are Leslie’s three: Hayden is beginning 7th grade, Peyton is stepping into 8th grade, and little Brecklyn is off to Pre-K to start her school journey.

We’re so proud of all of them and can’t wait to see what they accomplish this year. Here’s to a school year filled with learning, laughter, and lasting memories. From our team to yours, we wish all students, parents, and teachers a wonderful year.

Charles Takes the Supra on the Road Ahead of its Track Debut

Charles’ first time on the track with the new Supra was Saturday, August 30. To help get the car past the break-in period, which mandates no full acceleration, hard braking, or fast turns (all part of racing!), he took a 600-mile trip through the Ozarks, MO, over the weekend. One of the stops was at the Uranus Fudge Factory and General Store. His interest was in the fudge, not the general store!

Last month both Christi & Leslie had the incredible opportunity to attend a Savannah Bananas baseball game — and let’s just say, it was anything but ordinary.



From the moment they walked into the stadium, it was clear this wasn’t your typical ballgame. The energy was electric, the entertainment nonstop, and the attention to detail absolutely world-class. Whether it was the choreographed player entrances, dancing umpires, or fan-first surprises every inning, the Bananas team delivered an unforgettable experience rooted in excellence, creativity, and care.



Just like the Savannah Bananas, we believe top-tier experiences don’t happen by accident. They’re the result of consistent standards, thoughtful planning, and a relentless focus on the people we serve.

At our firm, that means:

• Client-Centered Service: The Bananas put fans first — we put our clients first. Whether it's navigating complex tax law or ensuring accurate and timely financial reporting, your goals are at the heart of our work.
• Consistency With Flair: The Bananas may be known for their wild antics, but their systems are solid. Similarly, we bring dependability and creativity to every engagement — because excellence and enjoyment aren't mutually exclusive.
• Operational Excellence: Behind every thrilling moment at the Bananas game was a finely tuned process — from flawless timing to seamless execution. At our firm, we apply that same behind-the-scenes rigor to our workflows, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and a smooth experience for our clients, no matter how complex the task.

Christi & Leslie walked away with more than laughs and memories. They came back inspired to keep delivering not just good service, but a wow-worthy experience for our clients and colleagues alike. Because at the end of the day, excellence is contagious — and we’re here for it.

We’re excited to celebrate our client, Betty’s Books, as they begin a brand-new chapter with the opening of their new location!

Beyond the bookshelves, Betty’s Books is dedicated to creating experiences that bring people together. They offer membership subscriptions that give readers access to exclusive perks and curated picks, as well as hosting fun and creative parties that make reading and storytelling a celebration.



Their book club provides yet another way for readers to engage, offering thoughtful discussions and a chance to share the joy of reading with others.

This focus on community engagement is what makes Betty’s Books so special. They aren’t just selling books, they’re creating opportunities for connection, learning, and celebration. The new location is an exciting step forward in that mission, blending their curated collection of diverse voices with a warm, welcoming environment where people of all ages can feel at home.

Congratulations to Betty and her team on this milestone! We can’t wait to see the shelves (and the café tables) filled with happy readers, conversation, and plenty of new stories waiting to be discovered.

Be sure to follow Betty’s Books on Facebook for updates, events, and new releases—or better yet, stop by the new store on or after September 20th!
