The Importance of Women to Your Practice

With the following statistics: women make up 50% of the population - there are more people over the age of 65 than under 15 and women on average live 4-5 years longer than men – last year’s census data shows Canadians in their late 50s are likelier to be divorced than any other age group…..why are women not becoming a target market for advisors? Come and learn why and how you can attract female advisors to your team and how to attract and keep female clients.”
