you don't pay the mechanic to tell you what's wrong with the car, you pay him to apply the "fix."

but yes, i will check out the phone books. not a bad idea. i know some guys pay google so they can be the first listing under a specific heading in a zip code.


In my case I have gone to mechanic and paid for advice so that I could fix the problem myself.

With that said ... smile

What about expanding the financial services you provide to areas outside of just fee based securities?

Many people have questions about finances where the answer doesn't come in the form of an investment. It's the "advisor" part of being a Financial Advisor.

This might be a way to expand your endeavour and possibly generate a new source of revenue.
