Who We AreLIVEOFFICE’S BROKER-DEALER ROSTER EXPANDS
January 10, 2006
TORRANCE, Calif., January 10, 2006 — LiveOffice Corp. (www.liveoffice.com) today announced that its AdvisorSquare division, the nation’s #1 provider of
financial advisor websites, added a record number of independent broker-dealers to its Web Connect partnership program in 2005.
The division's Web Connect program is designed to help broker-dealers deliver comprehensive, high quality and reliable online marketing solutions to their field representatives. The 2005 newcomers, including Securities America, Cadaret, Grant and Investors Capital, join Raymond James and many other broker-dealers already participating in the Web Connect program. With these additions, AdvisorSquare now counts 68%* of the top independent broker-dealers in the country as partners.
AdvisorSquare's 26% increase in broker-dealer partnerships over the last year reveals two interesting trends about how the Internet is altering the landscape of the financial advisory business. First, broker-dealers are validating the effectiveness of the Internet as a marketing tool by aggressively rolling out official website programs to their representatives. Second, today’s financial advisors see websites as a "must have" marketing tool for their practices that helps them connect with today's Internet savvy clients. AdvisorSquare’s Web Connect program is perfectly designed to accommodate the creative needs of financial advisors and the critical regulatory compliance requirements of broker-dealers.
"AdvisorSquare is dedicated to helping every financial advisor across the country use the Internet to build an online presence for their practice," said Michele McGarry, AdvisorSquare’s business development director. "The aggressive growth in our Web Connect program clearly demonstrates that many broker-dealers and their representatives view websites as the most effective way to enhance online marketing efforts. AdvisorSquare is excited to play the lead role in this important and fast-growing trend of using the Internet to connect and communicate with clients."
All representatives that purchase an AdvisorSquare website have access to ongoing education and training programs designed to help them promote their practice online, acquire new clients, improve client services and increase sales with a multitude of web-based tools. In addition, GetHits!, AdvisorSquare’s members-only newsletter, offers monthly tips on how to market a financial website and drive traffic.
AdvisorSquare also offers a variety of website packages and options for registered investment advisors and provides special pricing to financial advisor clients of Fidelity Investments, Schwab and TD Waterhouse.
