    Nov 20 2024

    How do you grow an email list for your financial advisory practice?

    In this LIVE "Advice Line" episode, financial advisor Andrew McFadden seeks guidance on expanding his email marketing efforts. We dive deep into Andrew's niche of young physicians, his current marketing strategies, and explore whether email is truly the best next step for his practice.

    Key questions we address include:

    ► Is email marketing the right focus for growing my practice?

    ► How can I leverage my speaking engagements to build my list?

We discuss the power of leaning into what's already working, and why throwing spaghetti at the wall isn't an effective long-term strategy.
