I have a weekly newsletter in which I talk about financial advisor lead generation topics which is best described as “fun and irreverent.” So please subscribe!

  • How far you can cut costs and which costs you should and should not cut
  • Two ways to grow your business and how to go about them
  • Profit margin guidelines for advisors who are acquiring other practices
  • How Jim got his business to 80% gross profit margin when he was an advisor
  • The likelihood of local talent meeting the needs of your practice
