Are your webinars attracting zero attendees despite your marketing efforts? Wondering why your ads aren't converting to actual participants?

In this LIVE "Advice Line" episode, financial advisor Ross Blount asks us to help solve his webinar marketing challenges. Despite running Facebook and LinkedIn ads and sending invitations to his email list, no one is showing up to his retirement planning webinars. We dive deep into his current marketing strategy, budget allocation, and targeting approach to identify where his funnel is breaking down.

Key questions we answer include:

► How can I attract qualified prospects to my webinars?

► Should I continue investing in SEO while building a webinar funnel?

► What webinar topics will actually convert pre-retirees into attendees?

If you're struggling to build an effective marketing funnel or spreading your resources too thin across multiple channels, this episode provides a clear roadmap for focusing your efforts where they'll generate the best results.

Listen in as we help Ross rebuild his marketing strategy to transform his webinar attendance and ultimately grow his practice.
