In this episode of the Financial Advisor Marketing Playbook, Mark Mersman breaks down why most advisors don't have a lead problem—they have a follow‑up problem—and how intentional drip sequences can transform dormant prospects into warm opportunities. Mark shares a simple five‑stage framework for creating nurturing campaigns that build trust rather than irritation, explains the difference between a journey and a newsletter, and outlines how to craft cold emails that open conversations without feeling automated or sales‑driven. If you want to strengthen your prospect experience, improve conversions, and communicate more like a human and less like a marketing machine, this episode gives you the blueprint.
