FAST Podcast - Financial Advisor Strategy Talks

White Glove, the marketing and events company that helps advisors fill seminar seats, produces this semimonthly podcast focused squarely on practice growth tactics. FAST stands for Financial Advisor Strategy Talks, and the show delivers quick, practical tips on everything from gaining new leads to keeping current clients engaged. With 43 episodes, it's one of the newer and smaller shows in this category, but the focused format makes each episode count. Current co-hosts Dean Thurman and Candace Byrnes took over in April 2024 after the previous host Lara Galloway departed, bringing a fresh energy to the interview-based format. Guests tend to be industry thought leaders and practitioners who share advice on first impressions, mentorship, brand building, content marketing, hiring, technology adoption, and succession planning. The episodes are concise -- designed for advisors who want targeted advice without committing to an hour-plus listen. The connection to White Glove gives the show a natural emphasis on marketing and client acquisition, which makes sense given the company's bread and butter is helping advisors generate leads through educational events. At 5.0 stars from just 1 review, there isn't enough listener data to draw conclusions about reception, but the content quality is solid for what it covers. Best suited for advisors who specifically want marketing and growth strategy in a compact format.
