Prospecting young pros

Podcasts and social posts point to high-leverage outreach for young professionals: run short 'financial bootcamps', co-host employer sessions, and use short-form video to drive DMs and appointment bookings. ( )

Socialive ran an on-site “Advisor Video Bootcamp” at Future Proof Citywide from March 8–11, 2026 that guides advisors through 15-minute, coach-led recordings to produce a polished 60‑second introduction video with teleprompter and AI eye-contact correction.
