All you have to do is add the event into to your advisor/team website and communicate the event details to your clients. Even if you don’t have clients attend, this is a great opportunity for a number of reasons:
- Clients see the educational experience as an added value and it helps build your relationship
- By adding the events to your advisor and/or team website, you’ll increase your website completion score and your site will be higher on the list of searches due to updated content
