idea Decanter presents…

Our approach to creating videos for advisors is much like our approach to delivering presentations – stories matter. Idea Decanter presentations are geared toward training advisors how to successfully script videos that connect with their target audience. And we also believe that learning practical performance tips will make creating videos easier for anyone. Of course, showing videos and getting the audience on their feet for some interaction is a part of the plan. Every moment of your time matters and we’re not about wasting it.

Raymond James Chairman’s Retreat

Who would say no to a few nights at the Ritz? When we were asked to share our best video strategies with the top 100 producers at Raymond James … and we heard it was at the Ritz Carlton in Chicago … it was a pretty easy Yes! What we shared on that stage with some of the best advisors in the country was a strategy that can add the spark you need to light up your lead funnel.

Raymond James Practice Management Workshop

When the Raymond James practice management organizers extended an invitation to train advisors to create marketing videos, we jumped at the chance. Little did they know, Sharon would have them on their feet jumping and hopping around to get rid of those pre-shoot jitters.
