The power of building genuine relationships in wealth management is significant. But this kind of approach takes time, and many advisors already struggle with a lack of margin. How can advisors create the space to develop meaningful relationships while also delivering the best outcomes for their clients?

In this episode of Connected, we talk with Steve Zuschin, Chief Revenue Officer at Mammoth. Steve shares his insights on how advisors can better prioritize their time and build genuine relationships with their clients. By being more approachable and understanding the unique value they bring to the table, advisors can create a team-based mentality that leads to better outcomes across the board.

We also explore the trend of outsourcing executive roles and the benefits of fractional work for RIAs. Steve emphasizes the importance of integrating behavioral finance expertise and building long-term partnerships with service providers and technology platforms. Additionally, we discuss the challenges faced by advisors managing alternative investments for their clients, from scalability to technology to tax management. 

Steve also introduces us to Rally for Rangers, a nonprofit dedicated to empowering park rangers around the world to preserve our most special places.
