This week we wrapped up our tech series for financial advisors. And while we sure are sad to see it go, it was seriously one for the books. From social media tools to virtual meetings and file sharing we covered virtually every tech tool needed for financial advisors to start and run their businesses successfully.
If you didn’t catch them all we’re rounding them up in a handy infographic to give you a snapshot of the most compelling statistics into four categories: social media, virtual meetings, meeting scheduling and overall marketing spend. Learn just how many financial advisors are using social media for their business (hint: it’s a lot!) and how other advisors are using various tech tools to run their business smoothly and achieve their goals.

4. what’s the best meeting scheduling app for your business?
Keeping up with your daily, weekly, and even monthly schedule can be challenging. Implementing a meeting scheduling app such as Calendly, Timetrade, or ScheduleOnce, can help alleviate the stress of double-bookings and scheduling conflicts.
5. What’s the best file sharing app for your business?
Sharing files through back and forth emails can be a hassle plus it can be problematic in that it’s easy way to lose track of the most recent updates. Implementing a file-sharing tool such as Dropbox, Sharefile, and NetDocuments can take the stress and confusion away.
6. what’s the best archiving solution for your business?
Twenty Over Ten provides a built-in FINRA and SEC-approved archiving and approval process for websites built on our platform.
