What is the amount of fee vs brokerage?

Then yes, what the other person said. 2x3 times revenue some other factors to consider are age of clients and next gen opportunities within existing book. Lots of ways to structure that depending on what firm you are affiliated with and how you want to do business going forward.

I saw some sales managers discussing hiring strategies, especially for entry level roles (e.g. SDR, BDR).

What do you think of this approach? Would be curious to hear from both hiring manager perspectives and from candidate perspectives.

I’ve been in the industry for 23+ years, 16+ of those spent as a Producing Branch Manager. I hold S7, S63, S66, S24 and I’ve completed the education for the CFP (need to pass the exam).

I’d love to find an RIA job, what type of role would be suggested?
