From the start, StocksToTrade’s mission has been clear: to break down the barriers that have kept sophisticated trading strategies out of reach for most.
How do we do that? Marketing.
These excerpts are from an interview I did in March with Digital Agency Network on connecting with retail investors. It’s the most important thing we do. Our platform — which we’ve invested literally millions of dollars into — can only make a difference if we first get traders using it.
This interview discusses the hurdles of marketing in the fintech space and the strategies that have propelled StocksToTrade to connect with a dedicated user base of over 30,000 retail traders. Drawing from our 15-plus years in the market, I can share some actionable insights and advice for budding fintech entrepreneurs looking to carve out their niche in this competitive yet rewarding field.

“In the fintech world, the challenge we constantly face is how to rise above the relentless barrage of information and offers bombarding retail investors… It’s a delicate balance between being heard over the din and ensuring that your message is clear, compelling, and concise.”
“Education has emerged as our most potent tool in breaking through the market noise… By translating complex trading concepts into accessible, actionable knowledge, we don’t just attract users; we create a community of informed, empowered investors eager to engage with the market.”
“The community is the cornerstone of our approach, transforming what is often a solitary pursuit into a shared journey of discovery and success… Our platform has become more than just a tool; it’s a gathering place where users support each other, exchange ideas, and grow together.”
“In a sector rife with over-promises and under-delivery, our commitment to authenticity and transparency has been our beacon… By sharing the real stories of our users—their successes, challenges, and lessons learned—we foster a genuine connection that transcends the typical vendor-customer relationship.”
“To my fellow fintech innovators, my advice is straightforward: focus relentlessly on solving real problems for real people… Ensure your product is not only powerful but also approachable and user-friendly. It’s the surest path to making a meaningful impact.”
“As we look ahead, I see a fintech marketing landscape increasingly shaped by personalization, driven by data, and anchored in genuine human connection… The future is about meeting investors where they are, with solutions that resonate on a personal level and technologies that simplify rather than complicate.”
