Episode Summary

The intro meeting is the lifeblood of an advisory business.

That 30-60 minute window with a complete stranger is either the most expensive or the most profitable activity you’ll ever engage in.

Yet, I kept hearing advisors complain about these meetings. They would say things like:

-“I never like the way I feel during those meetings.”

-“There has to be a better way.”

-“What I’ve been taught doesn’t work the way I thought it would.”

Since this show began, we’ve had some of the industry’s top experts join the show to talk about meeting with prospects, intro meetings, communication strategies, etc.

So, I went back and listened to those conversations and compiled the best clips into this episode.

It’s a collection of the best insights and wisdom over the last three years of this show to help you conduct the ultimate intro meeting.
