These 2 Things Can Make You Unstoppable

James Pollard
About this episode

What’s the difference between an advisor who barely breaks even every month and an advisor who has so many high-quality clients that he has to actively turn away qualified prospects?

It’s not luck, connections, or even intelligence. 

It’s something far more fundamental than that. 

In fact, there are 2 fundamentals that, once mastered, make you virtually unstoppable in business and life. 

Best part?

Once you know about these 2 fundamentals, you can improve at them like any other skill. 

That’s what we’re covering in today’s show. 

Listen now. 

Show highlights include:

  • Why alphabet soup credentials and being a wizard with complex financial strategies can actually hinder your marketing (1:55) 
  • The insidious “Curse of High Competence" that makes your prospects hightail it to your competitor (2:32) 
  • 3 questions you must ask during discovery calls if you want to turn a qualified prospect into a loyal client (6:45) 
  • How to double your fees overnight without sacrificing a single client (8:20) 
  • The “Say Nothing” secret for closing sales and getting paid what you’re worth (11:09) 
  • The weird way higher fees can build more trust than resistance (12:55) 
  • 2 scientifically proven ways to increase your confidence (and earn up to 50% more without working a single extra hour) (13:01) 
  • Why reading biographies can give you a bigger return on investment than perhaps anything else you can do (19:36) 

Financial advisors lose thousands of dollars in profits from their discovery meetings alone. But this doesn’t have to be your story when you go https://www.theadvisorcoach.com/meetings and learn how to conduct more profitable discovery meetings.
