A.U.M.™ - Ask Us Marketing Kalli Collective

Unfortunately for most financial advisors, engaging copy makes for a much better siren song than a spreadsheet. Every social media post you make, email you send, and blog you write is either drawing a crowd or sending prospects to your competitors. But your specialties are navigating the numbers and having the intuition to speak into your clients’ financial dreams and fears. Do you really have to go out and get a BA in English just to maintain your edge and win new clients? Not with these tips from Derek Pollard in your back pocket. This poet, editor, literary critic, and founder of Constellar Creative joins us on A.U.M.™ to share his copywriting tips for making your marketing sing thanks to prose worthy of the pros.

What do prospects in your area see when they Google “financial advisor near me”? Does your firm come up?
