How to promote an independent stock broker's growing business (besides cold calling)? There are 2 of us recently hired to be executive assistants to an independent stock broker. He seriously is growing business, brand new office, etc. But how could we (assistants) promote his business besides cold calling? How to spread the word about his business face2face w/ people.

We don't tell people quotes or anything as we are not brokerage licensed. Thanks!

The deal doesn't go through and the stock broker loses his job because he gave his clients inside information. After losing his brokers license, his girlfriend runs off with some other latino rich guy. Now he needs money so he takes his ex girlfriends job as a writer; he says that she's sick and can't deliver the articles, so he writes them in her name, and delivers them in person.

Should Walmart/Dollar General get into the adoption brokering business? Where I live there are two of these stores next to each other and I patronized them today because I needed to stock up on toilet paper, paper towels, candy, and laundry detergent.

I need your opinion on an issue raised in a discussion last night.? Last night I was watching the debate with a group of friends and some of their friends. After the debate we drank coffee and discussed the issues. One individual asked this question: (To qualify...this guy has been to prison in the past) He asked: "As an ex-felon, I am not allowed to vote, so why, if I am not entitled to practice the fundemental rights of other citizens, should I have to pay the same taxes as the rest of you?" Now this guy understands and agrees with the fact that he cannot ever own a guy for any purpose and he agrees with and understands that he cannot be employed as a peace officer etc... However he brought up a good point on some issues. He cannot vote, obtain a series 3 or 7 license. (To work as a Stock Broker or to sell Insurance and he cannot get a real-estate license.) Further, he cannot be licensed as a clinical psycologist. I was unaware of this. So, I ask...What is your opinion and further, do you know if this information is indeed factual.

Can a company (LLC) invest, buy stocks to its own name? This question I guess is for someone with some securities regulation knowledge or practical experience in this. Can a company (LLC for example) open a brokerage account to its own name (ABC LLC) and trade its own cash/funds to buy shares in any company on the stock market, as a cash management practice or even one of its main activities? Are there any special regulatory procedures to be followed, like registration, license to do that, or any extra reporting than a regular person will do. If I have to give a practical example case: ABC LLC does general trading and services, at some point ABC opens a brokerage account with ABC Brokers funds the account with company money, then buys stocks in that account. Are there any regulatory, permission, licensing authorization consequences? Need to file, report, get permissions licenses? Any comments from people with some qualification in the field or practical experience will be very welcome and given best answer award.

MBA What school looks better on a resume? I’m hoping that if I attend metropolitan for my MBA, the fact that I have 3 yrs of real estate exp, + 1 1/2 yrs of exp as a Stock broker soon while attending school; should make me an attractive candidate if not more attractive than someone that simply has a MBA from a prestigious school. Is this reasonable? Because once I’m done with school, if being a broker isn’t lucrative then I would look to network and transfer to a major investment firm. Then get my financial consultant license after the degree. Thanks for the help. Does anyone know if Metropolitan has an official MBA program? Which one is sounds and looks better better, St John (AAA Accredited school) – MBA w/ 3 yrs of real estate experience looking for job in consulting. Or I have Metropolitan Alumni (small school) - MBA w/ 3 yrs real estate exp, plus 1yr+ exp as registered stock broker on wall street. Which one sounds or would look better on a resume if I was applying for a consulting firm. Thanks

Help me on this career question!!? So I just grad outta college w/econ and now currently at a job at a small (but growing) online trading company for customer service, but going to sponsor me to take a series 7 and 63. So i am not sponsored to take the test because they think i am good or anything, but the fact they want people to get licensed.....But the pay is quite low, around 14 bucks per hour only. Since I just started, another company, an insurance company, responded back to me about an interview for a position as a Field claims adjuster trainee.... I have no time for the interview really unless i quit my job.... Should I just suck it up, get my license within 6 months or so, then see what happens, then look for that claims adjuster TRAINEE job again? Since a lotta ppl say unless you're handsome / good with talks or sales / cream of the crop, you won't make it as a stock broker (even if you have the credentials). So with that said, 1. should i suck it up, take my tests, hope i pass, then run off with the licenses and look for that claims adjuster trainee job? advantage is, i will now have licenses under my belt disadvantage is: those license have no relation to claims adjuster, and for trainees, they tend to only hire "fresh" college grads... 2. quit now and interview with the insurance company advantage, might get the job, and make a stable 35 -40 k a year disadvantage might not get the job, then i am screwd, cuz i am unemployed for over 5 months already until this job as customer service rep

Starting an Asset Management Company I want to get your opinion about how I can quit my job asap. I read the book “Rich Dad Poor Dad” long time ago and agree that the way to have freedom is to have tangible assets working for you. I am a stock broker (Investment Advisor) in Canada and am pretty happy about my job. The problem is income would stop if I am not in my office. I want to be away from work and still make money. I think one of the ways is to start my own Asset Management Company. This way I can generate funds that could pay me money even if I am not there to manage it. What do you think? Do you have similar thoughts? Do you know where I can get a blue print/business plan of an Asset Management company? Barriers: I have a market neutral trading strategy that works already. The problem is I need to be a licensed portfolio manager to start an Asset Management Company in Canada. I need the securities commission to approve my trading strategy and I need initial start up fund to start it. I think I am looking at around 3 million USD for start up fund. Sorry for not being clear. I am looking to raise 3 million for operation. I'd like to raise at least 50 million for the first fund. Some of my friends ask me to audit my trades first. Hire an experienced management team with my own capital and then look for angel investors.

What determines the commission agreement between the Broker and the salesperson? Coming out of college, or while in college, what can I do to increase my stock in the market without actually having a completed sale under my belt.

I am new to the whole system of real estate, and would really appreciate something to break down the basics, more specifically the career pathway for a college student interested in the career.

My dream job would be to be an equity analyst. My passion is the stock market.? However, I need advice on what path to go on now. Background: studying to be a Catholic priest for six year, picked up a bachelors in philosophy and fundraising experience. Left seminary, started working as a mortgage broker for 2.5 years. Again, more sales experience on top of fundraising. I am now working for a financial representative for a major insurance company. Within in one year I got my Series 6 & 63, insurance producers license, and passed CFA Level 1. I hired someone to write my resume, but am only getting responses from recruiters seeking someone as a support role in another sales environment, possibly more investment focused. Should I start applying for those types of jobs with the hopes that I can move into the analyst/research department of the same company, or stick to applying for analyst/researching jobs? Should I try moving into my current company's planning department? Or will I end up being stuck in a sales support role for the next 10 years?

Will I find a job if I pass by series 7 or series 63? So I am now currently at a job at a small (but growing) online trading company that is going to sponsor me to take a series 7 and 63. But the pay is quite low, around 14 bucks per hour only. If i pass the series 7 and 63 test, I have a couple of questions: 1. Will I be then an "official" stock broker? 1a. If not, what am I? 2. I went on careerbuilder.com, and search under stock broker, I see not many jobs at all available as "stock broker"....so is it even worth the trouble to go through all these and end up making 15 bucks an hour? 2b. With those licenses, what other jobs can i do with them? 3. I am also considering being a claims adjuster trainee as my secondary option, because at least as a Sr. claims adjuster, they make around 45K per year....what should i do? THANKS SO MUCH! I have BA in economics
