Business good, but you want GREAT? Financial businesses can do well without planning, many do. However, at some point in their business cycle, they become stuck. To become a high performing organization, to grow your firm more rapidly, a firm needs a solid foundation which includes a planning and monitoring process. Got yours? I sure do have mine!

Why Get Paid To Speak

2022-08-07T16:15:36-04:00July 8th, 2017|Speaking|0 Comments

Many conferences and some firms expect speakers to speak without payment. I find this is true no matter what industry they're in... but the accounting and finance industries are big culprits of not only asking speakers to speak for free... but some also ask speakers to pay them to speak! After all, "you could get some business". And it does happen sometimes, when you speak for free, that you do gain a client or two. You could be asked to speak at 7 am or 7 pm and it would take you a few hours or a plane ride to get to the event. Worst yet, is when a business doesn't want to pay for a

Advisors: Don’t Let LinkedIn Shut You Down

2022-08-07T16:15:37-04:00May 24th, 2017|Social Media|0 Comments

Don't Violate LinkedIn's User Agreement Terms Even if you don't use LinkedIn, and I'm not sure why you're not using it as a marketing and prospect tool, your LinkedIn profile is working for you. When you search someone's name using Google, Bing, etc.  chances are that the person's LinkedIn profile will appear  on the first page, in the first 3 spots.  Sometimes before their own website. Try it! Because of that, your name, on your LinkedIn profile is very important. I learned just how important when, in 2010, after 6 years of using LinkedIn, my account was suspended without LinkedIn notifying me.  One day I went to my account, and couldn't get in. Last thing I
