Matt Ackermann
Matt Ackermann is chief brand officer at Integrated Partners, where he works to shine a spotlight on the firm’s growing network of more than 225 financial advisors and 250 CPAs. He hosts the Perfectly Integrated podcast and co-authored the book Center Stage: How to Become the Star of Your Practice.
A veteran of the wealth management industry for more than 25 years who loves building community at industry events, Matt has spent the majority of his career at a variety of wealth management media outlets creating content that stands out. Before joining Integrated in 2020, he was director of multimedia at InvestmentNews, where he was honored with 15 ASPBE awards for digital content creation, including Practice Makeover, a reality series about helping advisors jumpstart their business, and a documentary on impact investing that debuted at the United Nations in 2019. Before InvestmentNews, he worked at Financial Planning, JCPR, American Banker, and the New Jersey Law Journal, where he was honored with the New Jersey Press Association’s “Rookie of the Year” Award in 1997.
People would be surprised to discover Matt has coached semi-pro baseball for the past 30 years, accumulating more than 600 wins, three New Jersey state titles, and the 2019 Metropolitan Baseball League title. When he’s not coaching baseball or basketball, Matt is spending time with his wife, Marisa, and their two sons, CJ and Ryan. CJ is a star of the stage in New Jersey (and now Manhattan where he attends Regis High School) and has already joined Matt conducting video interviews at industry events. Ryan, who spends most of his time in gyms and on the field with Matt, hopes to someday play catcher for the Baltimore Orioles.
