Are you struggling to grow your financial advisory practice by attracting a specific niche? Wondering how to effectively market to attorneys or other professional groups?

In this LIVE "Advice Line" episode, financial advisor Frank Rekas joins us to troubleshoot his marketing strategy. After 30 years in the industry and recently joining an independent firm, Frank wants to transition from an insurance-based model to growing his assets under management by focusing specifically on a niche of attorneys.

Key questions we answer include:

► How can I effectively narrow my niche to attract the right clients?

► What changes should I make to my LinkedIn profile and website to speak directly to my niche?

► How do I create a compelling offer that converts prospects into clients?

Whether you're targeting attorneys or another professional niche, this episode illuminates the power of laser-focused marketing.

You'll learn how to align your messaging across platforms, optimize your LinkedIn strategy, and create a clear path for your ideal clients to work with you.

Tune in as we help Frank build a simplified marketing funnel that cuts unnecessary activities while increasing potential revenue.
