#124 - Leveling Up: Growing Pains to Growing Confidence with Allen Mueller


Listen Later

In this episode, Allen reflects on the pivotal transition his firm has made—from what felt like the teenage years of figuring things out to what now feels like a confident, grown-up business. He talks about raising fees to match his value, navigating rejection, and developing a marketing approach that feels authentic—focusing on LinkedIn, directory listings, and client referrals instead of cold calls.

He also shares the tools that help him run a lean and effective operation, including Guardrails Financial for planning and Quiver CRM for systematizing client service. Whether you're in the early years or looking to refine your existing practice, this episode offers grounded, real-world insights into building a firm with intention and clarity.
