Why Aren't You Doing Online Marketing?

For those that haven't gone down this path yet.  What's holding you back?  The systems available to you right now are very powerful and could build you a huge list of prospects.  Do you have a website?  Are you using it for more then just to say "I've got a website"?

Just curious.

[/quote] The fact that it is a waste of time... The main prospects are 50 and older and although they are getting more internet savvy, most don't troll for financial advisor websites... plus 65+ definitely are not computer literate and hate having anything emailed to them (Prospectuses, statements, etc)...

Squash - you are way off on this. I have many clients over 60, they ALL - I MEAN EVERY ONE OF THEM - are online. In fact they are the ones who check their accounts online TOO often. One of my best clients is 78 , he is online all the time.
