While your medium is not your message, it's easier for people who are not financial experts to understand complex financial ideas when you use visual aides displayed on a 60-inch TV instead of on a 21-inch computer monitor or 9” tablet screen.
 
So it is wise for advisors to try out Google Chromecast, a $35 device that lets you broadcast content from your tablet, phone, or laptop to a big-screen TV.  
 
Chromecast debuted a couple of months ago and immediately sold out. I ordered one on Amazon two months ago that arrived last week. I ordered another one last week and it was still back-ordered, but I received an email from Amazon today saying t would arrive in two weeks. So you still need to wait about three weeks to get one.
 
Google’s Chromecast plugs into an HDMI port on an HDTV and picks up a wireless signal from your computer.
 
If your big screen TV is on one side of the room and your computer or tablet sits atop your desk or a conference table on the other side of the room, you can broadcast content from your computer, phone, or tablet to the HDTV wirelessly.
 
Chromecast shares any content you can show in a Chrome browser.  So you can display a PowerPoint presentation via SlideShare, Google apps, and other apps using Google’s Chrome browser on an HDTV. (Chromecast also supports Netflix, so can watch TV shows and movies using Chromecast.)
 
Using Chromecast isn’t a game-changing way of making presentations in your office when you have a visitor, but it does make you look smart—like you’re in touch with the latest technology, and that does make an impression on clients and prospects. For $35, it’s a no-brainer.
 
And big-screen HDTVs have plunged in price. You can get this new 58-inch 1080p (high-definition) TV for just $650.  While the brand is unknown, if you’re just using this TV for business purposes and not watching movies, this is 25% to 30% less than the cost of a 120-Hz 55-inch or 60-inch LED Samsung or Sharp HDTV.

A Strategically Focused CE Curriculum

With classes approved for over a decade by the CFP Board, IWI, and NASBA, Advisors4Advisors CE classes are an optimal knowledge stream for CFP®, CIMA®, CPA, CPA/PFS®, CFA®, and other practitioners. It's not a grab bag of speakers willing to sponsor CE content. Nor is it a one-man CE course. It's a group of subject matter experts with amazing communication skills and a history of thought leadership that, together, give advisors a well-rounded knowledge system for running a professional practice ethically and intelligently.

CE Since October 2008

A4A CE classes for financial professionals began in October 2008, the week Lehman Bros. collapsed. Initially billed as “The Financial Crisis Webinar Series,” A4A connects advisors with authoritative sources on investing, tax, and financial planning, chosen by A4A Editor Andrew Gluck, a veteran financial reporter. A4A members get a stream of CE classes for an advisor who: 

  • holds a CFP®, CIMA®, CPA, CPA/PFS, CFA or other designation requiring CE annually 
  • values monthly CE classes by Fritz Meyer, Craig Israelsen, Frank Murtha, or Andrew Gluck
  • diversifies a core of client portfolios in low-expense funds
  • invests based on MPT and economic fundamentals
  • advises on tax and financial planning as well as investing
  • needs financial counseling skills
  • wants the Certified Financial Counselor™ designation 
  • is building a brand as a thought leader locally or in a niche
  • wants the facts when bad news breaks
  • wants CE aligned with a content marketing system
  • wants 24/7 access to CE on-demand
  • insists on objective evidenced-based tax and investment planning analysis

It is not possible for me to overstate the cumulative value that Craig and Fritz have added for over 10 years to my investment advisory practice, as well as for personal and family financial planning. A4A gets my highest recommendation
Lynn Najman, CFP®
I’ve subscribed to A4A since its inception, and always find it intellectually stimulating and on point. It’s one of the few CE solutions out there that doesn’t waste my time by pushing product or talking down to me.

A4A has had a profound effect on my business. Since 2009, I’ve relied on the consistent messaging and updates to run my business successfully. Being able to present the information from Fritz, and Craig's ongoing CE webinars has been a significant benefit.

Fredric Mayerson, MBA, PhD, CFP®
I've been a financial professional and professor of finance for 35 years and find Fritz Meyer to be among the most engaging, incredibly knowledgeable, and experienced presenters I’ve encountered. They deliver an extraordinary amount of information in an extremely interesting way — sequentially and developmentally, utilizing pedagogical tools and techniques that few possess.  A4A to is the most consistently excellent CE program available.  
Ron Roge, MS, CFP®
I’ve been attending A4A many years because the CE classes are outstanding, and my time is valuable. Though I have over 35 years of experience, I’m always learning something new on A4A. I attend fewer conferences now because the CE is generally not advanced. If you want to learn from the best, in a faster, easier, and less expensive way, I highly recommend A4A.

John R. Day, CPA/PFS®

I’ve been a member since 2011 and never miss the monthly webinars with Fritz Meyer. I appreciate Fritz’s independent views on the economy keeps me updated on excellent  planning ideas. A4A is a great value!

I wouldn't miss a Fritz Meyer webinar unless my pants were on fire. I've relied on Andrew Gluck's knowledge systems --client communications and CE -- for two decades. It's simply the best solution for tax, financial, investment, and risk-management professionals.®   

Dan Hawley, CFP® 

A4A, for over a decade, has been a great resource for useful and accurate information and CE. A4A and Advisor Products are bargains for an advisory practice.
