In a new episode of the Financial Planning Podcast, financial advisor Eszylfie Taylor explains how he’s building his practice through an app, an upcoming docuseries and a basketball camp.
The founder of Pasadena, California-based Taylor Insurance and Financial Services serves a base of clients that includes professional athletes and Hollywood celebrities after breaking into the industry at 22 years old. Taylor is also the star of a video series called “Mind. Body. Money.” and he has developed a health and wellness app of the same name.
In the podcast, FP Chief Correspondent Tobias Salinger asks Taylor the following five questions about his niche of clients and his interesting array of side projects in addition to his practice.
1. Are you able to share any names of Hollywood celebrities and legendary athletes who are clients of yours? More importantly, how did you find this niche for your practice and what are some of their unique needs and planning challenges?
2. I’ve spoken with many innovative financial advisors but none starring in their own docuseries. When and where is “Mind. Body. Money.” airing and what are your goals for this series?
3. I also see that you launched a lifestyle app of the same name. How does the app work?
4. Let’s talk about LinkedIn and Lululemon. How are you collaborating with these brands and how did you become connected with them?
5. You are also the founder of the Future Stars Basketball Camp. What does this nonprofit do, when did you launch it and how did you get the idea? And how do you think the experience of running this basketball camp is reflected in your practice?
