Informed Choice chartered financial planner Martin Bamford was quoted today in an article in FT Adviser, looking at how social media including Twitter is being adopted in the retail financial services sector.
The article, called How I learned to love Twitter, sees Martin explaining that Twitter and LinkedIn are both becoming big contenders in the IFA’s embrace of social media.
Here at Informed Choice, it is fair to say that we have embraced a range of social media. After becoming the first IFA firm to publish a podcast, we have been regular bloggers and early adopters of new technology including Twitter.
