FPPad surpasses a milestone with its 500th post

Posted on June 23, 2012 by in General

Advisers, like all human beings, love round numbers; increments of 1,000 in the Dow Jones Index, 100 in the Nasdaq and S&P 500, and $100 million in AUM.

So when FPPad hits a round number, it’s cause for some celebration.

Friday’s Bits & Bytes update marked a minor milestone as the 500th post to FPPad. It seems like only yesterday I celebrated 100 posts (for the record, it was December 2008).

To celebrate, I connected with Timothy Welsh, founder of Nexus Strategy and respected colleague during a short visit to Dallas.

Here’s to the next 500 posts!

FPPad is moving to Atlanta!

Atlanta, Georgia twilight

I have exciting news to share today. FPPad is moving to Atlanta in July!

You may have noticed that the frequency of new posts has slowed somewhat, or the disclaimer on my Consulting page that says I’m not taking new clients through the end of July. I’m busy getting ready to move from Dallas, where my business and family have been based since 2009.

I’m looking forward to exploring the Atlanta metro and building on the success FPPad achieved as a Dallas-based company. After July, you should notice an increase in new content at FPPad, including video, podcasts, and a few new secret developments up my sleeve.

What’s New? The FPPad Refresh

Posted on September 20, 2010 by in General

Notice anything different? Visitors to the FPPad.com website should notice a few changes that were rolled out this weekend. So what’s new?

Updated Design

We added a new WordPress theme from WooThemes to refresh the look of the website. The left-hand sidebar is now on the right, placing the content immediately to the left. Behind the scenes, we have better overall management of the content posted here, including better use of menu navigation, sidebar widgets, and user experience.

New E-Newsletter Service

A new item in the right-hand sidebar is a box to sign up for the new FPPad E-Newsletter. Until now, we used FeedBurner to provide e-mail and RSS subscription options to new FPPad posts. FeedBurner works fine, but it doesn’t allow us to distribute a targeted monthly newsletter or deliver exclusive offers to our subscribers.

So please take 10 seconds to enter your name and e-mail to subscribe to our new E-Newsletter. As a thank you for completing the subscription process, we’re offering a free download of our eBook titled 7 Essential Tips For The Productive Advisor. Get seven of our best tips in eighteen pages with over twenty technology resources.

If you subscribed by e-mail to FeedBurner, you will want to unsubscribe from that feed to avoid receiving duplicate e-mails for new blog content (the unsubscribe link is at the bottom of FeedBurner e-mails).

Better Search

There’s a new menu item to search FPPad archives. The old search would show only the titles of posts matching the search results, but not the body of the post showing what matched. We now added Google Search for FPPad that yields better results when you search for words and phrases used on our site.

Welcome!

So welcome to the new and improved site! We hope you enjoy what FPPad has to offer.
