Australia’s answer to the real niche advisory group
Chris Kopittke’s Regional Financial Services is probably the closest thing Australia has to the successful niche advisory business of the future.

Finding the solution is only half the problem, the other half is marketing to the niche and building sufficient scale to reduce overheads.
