The Predictable Practice Advisor Intensive
Tuesday, January 27
San Antonio, TX
“You Don’t Have to Choose Between a Firm That Knows Your Name… and a Firm That Can Help You Grow”
Discover How Independent Advisors Are Building Predictable, Scalable Practices - Without Losing the Small-Firm Feel
(Registration, travel, and lodging covered by USA Financial)
Dear Independent Advisor,
Let’s be honest.
You didn’t go independent because you wanted a cubicle. You did it because you wanted freedom. You welcomed the challenge of entrepreneurialism.
And you likely chose a smaller firm because you wanted to know the people you work with. Because you wanted to serve clients without the bureaucracy, the corporate suits, and the never-ending rule changes that make bigger firms feel like the IRS with a marketing department.
But here’s the catch -
You also know that small can only take you so far.
You want to stay close to your clients. You want real relationships.
But you also want better tools, sharper systems, smarter marketing, and real practice management support—without giving up your independence.
And deep down, you know this truth:
👉 It’s getting harder to compete without the horsepower of a bigger firm.
That’s exactly why we created The Predictable Practice Advisor Intensive.
What If You Could Have Both?
Imagine a firm that still knows your name…
…but also hands you the technology, systems, and support that rival the biggest players in the industry.
That’s what you’ll experience at our one-day event in San Antonio.
This is not a conference. It’s not a trade show.
It’s a candid, hands-on session built for advisors like you - those who love the relationship-driven feel of a small firm but want access to more leverage, more resources, and more predictability in their business.
Here’s What You’ll Discover
- How to Build Predictability Into Your Practice
No more feast-or-famine months. You’ll learn the systems that create steady, reliable growth - so you can scale without working more hours or gambling on marketing fads.
- How to Keep the “Boutique Feel” While You Scale
You’ll discover how top advisors maintain the personal, high-touch experience their clients love while implementing structure that frees up their time and energy.
- Technology That Actually Works for You
Forget the patchwork tech stack. We’ll show you how to integrate electronic processing, risk management, and client onboarding tools that eliminate bottlenecks, reduce NIGO errors, and impress clients with seamless digital experiences.
- How to Position Yourself as the Experienced Professional in Your Market
You’ll learn how to elevate your brand, attract higher-quality clients, and create an ongoing stream of introductions - without cold calling or begging for referrals.
- The Systems Big Firms Use (That You Can, Too)
You’ll get an inside look at practice management frameworks, appointment protocols, and marketing automation strategies that have helped advisors nationwide grow more efficiently.
You Value Relationships. So Do We.
(In fact…It’s precisely why we’re interested in meeting you.)
Let’s make something clear:
This isn’t about turning your business into a machine.
It’s about giving you the leverage to spend more time on the parts of your business that actually matter - your clients, your team, your family.
We know you value relationships. So do we. That’s why we’re keeping this event small, personal, and interactive.
You’ll have real conversations - not keynote lectures.
You’ll sit across from seasoned advisors and practice management experts who’ve been where you are and built something predictable, profitable, and freeing.
No Cost. No Commitments. Just Clarity.
Let’s remove every excuse.
We’re covering your registration, travel, and lodging.
That’s right - you can attend at no cost.
Your only investment is one day of your time and an open mind.
Is it a recruiting event? Yes, but not like anything you’ve experienced before.
There’s no pressure. No strings. If you’re open to exploring, we simply want a chance to see if there’s a good fit.
We’re not looking for everyone. We’re looking for advisors who want more - without giving up the independence and authenticity that make them who they are.
OUR PROMISE TO YOU:
We’ll treat you how we would want to be treated. We’ll share a BOATLOAD of ideas, many of which you can implement in your practice right away, regardless of whether USA Financial becomes a partner with you in the future.
We simply ask that you be open to a conversation afterwards to discuss whether it makes sense for us to explore something further. Fair enough?
Who Should Attend
This event is for independent advisors who:
✅ Love the personal relationships of a smaller firm but are frustrated by limited resources.
✅ Want the technology, compliance, and marketing horsepower of a larger firm.
✅ Are ready to systematize their practice to create predictability and scale.
✅ Are tired of working harder just to stay in place.
✅ Want to elevate their client experience without losing the human touch.
✅ Believe that the next chapter of their business should be their best one yet.
If that sounds like you, this event was built for you.
Why This Event Matters Now
The advisory landscape is shifting.
Margins are shrinking. Regulations are rising. Competition is fierce.
The advisors who thrive in the next decade will be those who learn how to combine personal connection with professional scalability - those who can deliver boutique service with enterprise-level efficiency.
That’s what we’ll show you in San Antonio.
The Predictable Practice framework isn’t theory. It’s a proven model used by advisors who’ve built sustainable, sellable, and scalable practices - all while keeping their independence intact.
Your Invitation
This is your personal invitation to join us Tuesday, January 27, 2026, in San Antonio, Texas, for an event designed to transform the way you think about your practice, your future, and your freedom.
Space is extremely limited - and it’s intentionally that way.
We’d rather have 10 advisors in the room who are serious about change than 250 who are just browsing.

I look forward to meeting you!
Sincerely,
Mark Mersman
Chief Marketing Officer
