Hello, My name is Mel Mattison. I’m the founder of New Broker Dealer Solutions. For over two decades, I’ve operationalized, grown, and led multiple FINRA-registered broker dealers. I’ve taken firms from the recognition that a BD is a necessary part of their business model all the way to profitability of their BD entity. This has included time as the CEO of three different member firms as well as the filing of various New and Continuing Membership Applications with FINRA. I’ve started broker dealers from scratch and also overseen the acquisition process of an established member firm. Whether you’re looking to build your BD (New Member Application) or buy your BD (Continuing Member Application), I have the knowledge, expertise, and connections to help make that vision a reality. Unlike many advisors in this space, I’m an actual operator with boots on the ground experience. I also hold an MBA from Duke University with concentrations in both Investment and Corporate Finance. I can help guide you every step of the way. It’s what I love to do!
