Prior to joining ProEquities, Robbins served as assistant vice president of business development at Lincoln Financial Network and was a founding board member of its initiative to bring female advisors together to share best practices. Before working at Lincoln, Robbins served as vice president and head of advisor recruitment at United Planners Financial Services of America.

In her new role, Robbins will focus on providing advisors with resources that include best practices intended to improve efficiency and boost revenues; product lines and financial planning solutions, software and technology solutions, advisor study groups, and one-on-one coaching opportunities.
She will also lead ProEquities’ advisor acquisition initiatives, focusing in part on creating opportunities for younger advisors to team with more experienced practice leaders and to assume the books of businesses of exiting advisors.
Robbins’ hiring comes after ProEquities recently announced a partnership with The W Source to expand professional networking and business coaching resources for the firm’s women financial advisors.
