Tips for avoiding professional burnout [Article]:
“Facing a profession in a state of rapid change, financial advisors are already overburdening their emotions and intellect—but the pressures of Covid-19 have made things even more stressful.

How to optimize your website’s primary and secondary calls-to-action [Article]:
“A common sentiment from advisors is ‘I have a great website, but it just doesn’t produce any leads for our firm.’ While frustrating, this is not uncommon. In fact, 97% of all website visitors do NOT convert on the first visit?
Of course, it makes sense that most people visiting your site for the very first time are not going to be ready to pull the trigger and book a meeting with you. Some are just checking you out, some might be entering via a blog post you wrote on a specific topic, and some might just not be in the place where they think they are ready to start a new relationship with an advisor yet.
But wouldn’t it be nice if you could capture more of these visitors’ information, so you could continue to send them marketing emails and stay in front of them, so that when the time comes that they are ready to engage, you are the first firm they think of?“
