The Rundown
Monday closed at $151.9K in revenue across 2,839 orders — steady. Today's loaded: Exec Group at 11, Farhan's FP&A case study at 2 (Emma sent the materials last night), and a call with FUEGO at 4. PearlRock's NDA is signed and Veejay's pushing to lock summer dates. You're pacing at $62.9M annualized. Jiu jitsu first, then go run it.
