Listen Later

Video has quickly become one of the most powerful tools for financial advisors looking to grow their business, build trust, and attract new clients online.


In this episode of The Stephen & Kevin Show, we sit down with Colin Day, Wealth Advisor at Mercer Advisors, who has built an engaged audience of nearly 30,000 followers on Instagram by sharing relatable and practical videos about financial planning.


Colin’s content stands out because it’s authentic, personal, and approachable. Instead of overly polished production, he focuses on simple, real conversations about money that connect with everyday people.


We talk about how he got started with video, how his well-known “Tree Saga” content series began, and what financial advisors can learn about using video to build their personal brand and grow their practice.
