  • Is That Your $50 Bill?

    "If you saw a $50 bill on the ground would you stop to pick it up?"

    Paul Gauger explains how asking your clients this simple question could spark their interest in a solution other than a bank CD. 

    October is CD Renewal Month, making right now the optimal time to get in front of as many CD clients as possible.

  • Don't Waste This Question - "How are you doing?"

    Paul Kingsman explains that when clients ask HOW YOU'RE DOING, it's best to describe WHAT YOU'VE BEEN DOING to equip them with words to easily refer you to others.

    • Instead of treating the question, “How are you?” as a throwaway line, determine to respond in a more valuable way.
    • Practice the words to succinctly tell who you’ve been helping.
    • Then, having planted the details of who and how you help in their minds, quickly redirect the conversation to them, so they know you’re genuinely interested in them.

    • TOP 3 CLIENT IDEAS for August

      MAXIMIZING CLIENT OPPORTUNITIES WITHIN THE BRANCH – A concept we hear often with Huddle Sessions, and certainly as important as ever.

      Sometimes looking beyond the “typical” opportunities like Large Deposits, CD Ownership, Bank IRAs, etc., can also create some great conversations.

      Pulling ideas from recent Huddles we’ve been a part of in the field, we wanted to share (3) areas of interest.  Each comes from a place of truly helping to be a resource for clients.

    • THE REAL POWER OF CHOICE, YOUR CLIENTS KNOW WHAT THEY WANT

      Have you ever had to return a gift someone gave you, either it was the wrong size or wrong style?

      Wouldn’t it have been nice to have some input?

      The same is true in selecting a solution for your client.

      Nick Bond explains how Involving your client in the decision making process goes a long way in accomplishing two things…

      1. Avoiding future objections 
      2. Creating longer lasting relationships
      3. Listen and prevent your client from returning what you picked out for them.

      4. YOU'RE NOT THE HERO... and that's okay.

        Natalie Kropuenske shares how understanding this concept is key to getting your clients where they want to be. 

        In your client's story, THEY ARE THE HERO. And they should be. 

        They don't need you to save them, they need you to guide them. 

        They can't do it on their own. 

        Remember...

        • Luke had his Yoda. 
        • Frodo had his Gandalf. 
        • Tommy Boy had his Richard. 
        • They need you to show them the way.

          Whether your client needs Income Now, or Income Later, solutions are available.
