I’m sending you an e-mail with early access to the application because I see that you’re busy with this group, but I just wanted you to match the name and the face.

We’re going to talk about how he provides high value as an hourly financial advisor by saving investors from the “Humpty Dumpty portfolio” and the lessons other advisors can learn about serving clients with simp
