This week, we’re joined by Ian Dempsey, Independent Financial Planner and Coach at Themoneyman. 🎙️ Ian is passionate about making financial advice simple, accessible, and jargon-free, but he’s also clear on one thing: if advisers aren’t embracing technology and social media, they’re going to get left behind. In this episode, he shares his perspective on why digital tools, AI, and online presence are no longer optional for financial planners—they’re essential. Whether it’s reaching new clients, improving efficiency, or enhancing client engagement, the firms that adapt will be the ones that thrive. 💡 📅 Out today – tune in now! 👇🏼 Links to listen on Amazon, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more in the comments.
