[Text] Meet Crystal and Brad

[Text] Edward Jones | Raleigh, North Carolina

[Text] Brad McRae II – Financial Advisor, Raleigh, North Carolina

[Brad] I wanted a career that I could grow in to as opposed to a career that I had outgrown. And also be with a firm that has stood the test of time.

[Text] Work for Yourself – Not by Yourself

[Text] Crystal Dempsey – Financial Advisor, Raleigh, North Carolina

[Crystal] You’re working for a Fortune 500 company but you have the mentality of a small business owner. So you’re not left to figure it out on your own but your given enough flexibility to make it your own. We only ask for your sweat equity. We don’t ask for a dollar investment into building your brand and your business. We give you all the tools and resources you need to be a great financial advisor and to build a successful business.

[Text] Training and Support – Throughout Your Career

[Brad] The training was just right on time, it was almost like checkpoints the first year of my career. There were literally dozens of individuals at the firm that helped me be successful. That culture is really what permeates at Edward Jones and naturally I want to help those who are behind me.

[Text] The Advantage of Partnership

[Crystal] And that really also comes from our partnership. Because your success in turn contributes to my success. We really rally around together to work as a team, because we’re all working to keep the client center and make sure we’re doing what’s best for the people in our communities.

[Text] Work Life Balance

[Brad] The firm recognizes that the more support that I get for my family the more successful I’ll be.

[Crystal] Anything that’s going on with my family, I can arrange my day because we have a flexible day. Now sometimes that means I have to put in the hours at other times of the week, but I get to choose, no one chooses that for me.

[Brad] One thing that really stands out is your income potential.

[Text] Work Hard – Be Rewarded

[Crystal] There’s no cap. You set your goal as an individual and as a professional and no one can stop you from achieving it only yourself.

[Text] Meaningful Work

[Brad] Every day when I get out of bed the first thing I think about are my clients and how I can better serve them. That is the best thing about my career is the ability to draw individuals out and not only understand what’s important to them but to show them how they can reach those goals.

[Crystal] And for them to look at you and say I couldn’t have done this without you.

[Text] Raleigh-Durham has Room for You to Grow

[Brad] The Raleigh-Durham market has opportunities for new financial advisors. There’s a lot of families that we are still looking to serve.

[Crystal] In order to share this great opportunity with more clients we have to have more great financial advisors to help us share the work.
