Congratulations, and I wish you many more years of reporting excellence, fun and prosperity with RIABiz. I find the articles enormously helpful for the work I do. They are thoughtful, timely, comprehensive, and help educate. I always read your daily publication as soon as it arrives at 7:15 am because I know it contains useful insights that can help me or one of my colleagues.

RIAs are a high-growth distribution channel, which will receive a lot of attention going forward. How nice to be on the ground floor of a growing trend!

Congratulations, Brooke and the RIABiz team, on what you’ve contributed to the business’ understanding of the RIA marketplace over the last year. What you cover, how you cover it and the open source way in which you present it seem to be ideally suited to the new guard.

Continued success in Year 2!

Congratulations Brooke,

You are right, there is no RIA coverage and with regulatory reform under Dodd-Frank, who won’t be considered an adviser.

Next year at this time you will have 50,000 readers with growth accelerating.

A wholehearted congratulations! RIABiz, along with a hot cup of Peet’s coffee, has become an irreplaceable component of my morning ritual.

Well done on establishing yourselves as the source for in depth coverage of our industry. Keep up the great work.

It warms my heart to read such positive words from everyone!

Elizabeth really articulated it perfectly when she said we think of ourselves as a community newspaper. I really like that we’ve been able to do this with a group of people that is spread out all over the country.

Also, I’d like to say once again that if you have any feedback about how the site itself works, don’t hesitate to <a href="mailto:nevin@riabiz.com" rel="nofollow">email me</a>.

I enjoy reading about how you all took a chance and are working hard to make an impact in the RIA industry. I was curious about your story and had a feeling it went something like that. It’s a path that many RIAs, and those serving RIAs (like us at Prima Capital), can relate to. Oh and thanks for your reporting; I have learned a lot from your effort over the past year.
