Exhibit A
Financial Advisors work in Charleston
Charleston has a steady base of independent advisory firms, registered investment advisers and insurance licensed planners, and the search demand around retirement planning, rollovers and college saving follows the region's growth. The paid search market for advisory keywords in the metro is competitive enough that firms bid on terms like Charleston financial advisor and retirement planning Charleston, which tells you people are actively looking rather than browsing. The firms doing the searching are mostly owner operators and small practices rather than national franchises, so the local search results are shaped by individual advisers and their websites. That is the demand available to you: a steady stream of people in the metro typing questions about money into a search box.
