Navigating the complexities of marketing regulations is a critical challenge for financial advisors, especially in light of the SEC’s updated marketing rules introduced in 2022. These new regulations have opened the door for advisors to use testimonials, endorsements, and other client feedback in their marketing strategies—an opportunity that was previously off-limits.

He breaks down the legal nuances of the 2022 SEC updates, providing practical tips on what you can and cannot do when it comes to client endorsements.

Think about your last sales pitch. How did it go? Did you walk away feeling like you made a deep connection with your prospect, or like you tried to sell them on a service?

As one of only twelve Exactly What to Say Certified Guides, Nicole has built a business designed to help entrepreneurs (like financial advisors!) learn how to take sales calls from pushy to profitable and by using the same relational-based tactics that helped her multiply her conversion rate by 400% in just two years.
