How To Solve 99% Of Your Marketing Probl...

James Pollard
About this episode

As much as 99% of your marketing problems can be summed up in one sentence: 

You’re taking the easy route and doing the bare minimum. 

You might feel like you’re moving mountains, but a closer look would reveal you’re just kicking pebbles into the wind. This mindset is especially rampant in the financial advice space where advisors outsource their unique advantages to robots and quietly fade into irrelevance. 

Worst part?

I see more advisors falling into this irrelevance trap every time I log into LinkedIn. 

And so, I’m going to help you today. In this episode, I’ll show you how to solve 99% of your marketing problems. You might not like what I have to say, but if you want an unfair advantage for the rest of your career, you’ll heed this advice. 

Listen now. 

Show highlights include:

  • The weird human glitch that tricks advisors into crippling an effective marketing campaign long before it compounds like interest (2:15) 
  • If you ask yourself this simple question, you’ll eliminate 99% of your marketing problems for good (3:58) 
  • 4 things your financial advice business must have if you want to prevent other advisors from competing or copying you (7:17) 
  • The dark truth about using AI for marketing (and why it does more harm for financial advisors than other industries) (8:31) 
  • The counterintuitive way making your job harder than it has to be makes your bank account balloon by a few extra 0s (12:55) 
  • Why implementing a “Top Down” business strategy is the single quickest way to grow your business to 7, 8, and even 9 figures (15:34)
