why partner with FPA MN?

The FPA of Minnesota offers you the opportunity to partner with our association over the course of an entire year rather than by each single event. Details are available in the 2023 Partnership Packages. The Benefits At A Glance explains quickly the differences between the Diamond, Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze levels.

Profitable Business Network

The financial professionals you’ll meet through the FPA of MN Chapter can help you build long-term business relationships. FPA of MN has more than 800 financial professionals in Minnesota, representing a broad spectrum of specialties including financial planning, broker dealer services, insurance/annuities, mutual funds, banks/thrifts/trust, law, investment management and accounting. Members are a highly targeted market for your product or service.

Qualified Business Leads

The Chapter holds monthly member meetings that provide attendees with continuing education credits. Speaking to this group gives you a targeted audience that is open to hearing your message. Members who attend are there to learn new information and network before and after meetings. It’s an excellent time to collect business cards for follow-up marketing. Members are continually looking for information on new products and services to meet their clients’ needs.

Quality Marketing Options

The Chapter sends its members and prospects (approximately 3,000 financial professionals) a monthly newsletter that contains information about upcoming meetings, Chapter public relations activities, practice management information, national educational opportunities and more. Members tell us it’s the one periodical they are sure to read, which means that your marketing insert and/or advertisement in FPA of MN News will be noticed and read.

Membership Mailings

The Chapter values its membership list highly and does not sell the mailing list to the general public. Therefore, our members are not flooded with marketing mailings related to their Chapter membership.

ASCEND Conference

In addition, partnering and speaking opportunities are also available at the Annual ASCEND Conference. If interested, complete a Call for Speakers form. Speakers are selected six to twelve months in advance. Full details on ASCEND are available by clicking here.
