Local financial advisor featured on cover of national magazine
article focuses on growing presence of women in industry
(October 16, 2012) – ORLANDO, FL – Rebecca True, president of Ocoee based True Capital Advisors, is featured on the cover of Senior Market Advisor magazine, the financial services industry’s leading publication for advisors specializing in retirement and legacy planning services.
“It was a great honor to be approached about appearing in the magazine,” True said. “I felt as though it was important to tell my story and to continue to promote the advancement of women in a largely male-dominated field.”
True is the co-founder of Orlando’s “Contacts and Cocktails”, a women’s networking group whose goal is to connect professional women and promote stronger business ties throughout the Greater Orlando area. True created the group with Shannon Brouillette, CEO of CFO Strategic Partners and Merrell Bailey, managing partner of Bailey Zobel Pilcher.
“I think that women are really masters at networking and we’re not really all masters at patting ourselves on the back for our accomplishments,” True told Senior Market Advisor Editor Daniel Williams in the October edition. “And I think that kind of obvious lack of self-promotion as a group is somewhat of a weakness as compared to some of our male advisor counterparts.
“But I think we (women) can really play up our networking skills to collaborate with other women professionals. And I think that when we do that, we can accomplish greater things.”
Most recently, True’s “Contacts and Cocktails” networking group held its meeting in Windermere. Additional events are scheduled throughout Central Florida. True said as a woman business owner, she enjoys the opportunity to empower other women in the Orlando community with the tools to make friends with other influential women around the area.
Women executives and business owners interested in learning more or attending upcoming “Contacts and Cocktails” events can contact True Capital Advisors at 407-992-9200.
