Quick question for you: what percentage of advisors are retirement plan advisors in the United States?
Less than 3%. 2.3% to be precise. But the retirement plan market is booming, with assets expected to double by 2033, and 2.5 million new plans starting soon. This translates to 51 million new retirement savers and huge potential for advisors who can capture a piece of the pie.
In this episode, influence expert Matt Halloran welcomes Rebecca Hourihan — Founder and CMO of 401(k) Marketing — to explore the opportunities for advisors within the 401(k) market, and the strategies to enhance market share.
