John Kennedy - A US Adviser's perspective on marketing a financial services business - MAF226

My guest this week is John F Kennedy, an adviser from Florida.

As you can imagine, sharing a name with a famous American President makes it difficult for him to rank in search.

We chat about how he's marketed his business, Candorpath, and some of the differences and similarities between UK and US financial services.

Welcome to episode 226 of the Marketing and Finance Podcast.

We chat about:

• The difference between UK and US financial advice markets
• Subscription models and giving a lifetime of value to clients
• Using video to create a client connection even before the first meeting
• Why compliance and regulation shouldn't be a barrier to using video marketing
• Using storytelling to engage clients
