At SFA, advisors turn to our firm’s experienced industry leaders and to a supportive community of advisor colleagues to gain counsel and strategy to learn what works best and what new ideas they might pursue. As part of our formal and informal ongoing process of learning, SFA advisors receive consultative and strategic advice on how best to market their practice and effectively channel their passion for delivering outstanding client service. We help our advisors keep their marketing efforts up to date, enabling them to improve their outreach, such as bringing their practices onto social media and mobile platforms.
