What is the Edward Jones policy/stance on social media and advertising? Is it really restrictive? Seems like reps want to use it, but are limited on what they can do.

Jones is always the most restrictive. Lots of green advisors that make the rules unfavorable for their experienced ones.

I’m with LPL and we can make our own posts without having compliance approved first. We use a social media monitoring service that allows us to do it.

Gotcha. I’m sure that is better for client relationship building. I need to post more of that kind of content, so people know we have personalities outside of work and to tell a better story. I think the original thread was talking about real custom marketing on social media to generate interest/leads. I don’t think Jones allows that and it’s a shame because it really works.

Very limited. Everything is pre made or needs to be administrative in nature. I understand why it is that way but I’d say it limits us to 60% of the pie available

Can you all write your own posts without them being approved first?

Hey all I have an opportunity to buy a vacation home as a private sale from my parents (they are buying a new house in that area and need to sell the old one), it is waterfront property in NH 10 minutes from Mt Sunappee. I am concerned that making this purchase may make me a little cash poor in the short term, but still manageable. Would it make more sense to rent out the property through a rental company that included insurance and cleaning or to put it on airbnb?

Hi folks, I recently applied for a new role in EMEA for a Specialist Solutions Architect. Got through n received an offer letter. But seems like the base is a bit lower than what i saw online in a couple of places (not sure of years of experience there though). Is it worth it to bring it up and ask the HM to raise an exception? How much time will this take? Is it a risk? Already the entire process has dragged on cause of delays on recruitment's part etc. Any advice or insight would be helpful!
