How to work the event

Meet fewer people, follow up with all of them.

Three habits for financial advisors, then the follow-up that turns a badge into a client. The whole playbook is in our guide to digital business cards at events.

  1. Before
    1. Card in Apple Wallet
    2. Five people to meet
  2. At the event
    1. Show your QR
    2. They save you
    3. They can send theirs back
    4. Note one detail
  3. After
    1. Follow up within two days
    2. By name, one detail
    3. Draft and reminder
  • Say what you do in one sentence

    Advisors meet other advisors, custodians and vendors. “Fee-only planner for physicians in Ohio” gets you remembered and referred; “wealth management” does not.

  • Keep compliance in mind

    What you hand out can count as communication with the public. A card with your name, firm, role and the disclosures your firm asks for keeps it simple; check with your compliance team before you add more.

  • Write down the referral, not the pitch

    The useful note after a conversation is who they serve and who they turn away. That is the line that makes a referral possible in six months.

  1. 1They scan your pass
  2. 2They save you
  3. 3They can send theirs back
  4. 4Pro drafts your follow-up

Example · one swap, followed up

Cardr puts your card in Apple Wallet, so it opens with no signal on a crowded show floor. The person you meet scans it with their camera, saves you and can send their details straight back, and each exchange lands in your contact list with a note. For the card itself, see the digital business card for financial advisors page. For the email afterwards, use the conference follow-up templates.

Questions

Financial advisor conferences, answered.

What are the main financial advisor conferences in 2027?

EstateCon (Feb 1–3, 2027, Scottsdale, AZ); T3 Technology Conference (Mar 22–25, 2027, Las Vegas, NV); NAPFA Spring National Conference (May 5–8, 2027, San Diego, CA); MDRT Annual Meeting (Jun 6–9, 2027, Orlando, FL); FPA Gather (Aug 24–26, 2027, Portland, OR). Each date is from the organizer’s own site.

What is the best conference for financial advisors in 2027?

It depends on the job. T3 is the technology show, NAPFA serves fee-only planners, FPA Gather is the Financial Planning Association’s own, and EstateCon is for estate and tax planning. Pick the one whose room holds the people who refer to you.

Do advisor conferences count for CE credit?

Many sessions carry CFP Board or other continuing education credit, but it varies by session and by event. Each event’s own site lists what it offers; check before you register.

Why is the Morningstar Investment Conference not listed?

Morningstar’s site shows a 2027 date, but we could not read the full official page to confirm the dates and city when we checked, so it stays out until we can.

How do I follow up with people I meet at a conference?

Within a day or two, by name, with one thing they said. Our conference follow-up templates have one for each situation, and the trade show versions cover both sides of a booth.
