The Journey to RIA Success: From Cold Calling Cowboy to Independent Innovator

In this episode of the Kick It Open podcast, host Shelby Nicholl interviews Chuck Failla, a financial advisor with over 25 years of experience.

The conversation covers Chuck's career milestones, the advantages of the RIA model, and the resources and community support available for advisors considering going independent. They also discuss the impact of client demand for fiduciary services and transparency, as well as the importance of attending conferences to stay updated with industry innovations.
