How a Fee-Only Advisory Firm Replaced 250 Hours of Monthly Sales Work with a $100 System
A regulated fee-only financial advisory firm was spending 250+ hours a month on manual sales calls and onboarding admin. PhotonMan built an automated onboarding system using Zapier, a compliant e-signing platform, and a payment gateway. Webinar-to-client conversion went from 8% to over 20%. The entire system cost under $100 a month.
