In this episode of "From Busy to Rich," Wes and Justin discuss how financial advisors can effectively answer the question "What do you do?" in a way that engages the listener and leads to meaningful conversations. They emphasize the importance of avoiding generic labels and lengthy explanations, and instead, engaging the listener in a dialogue. They provide a framework for crafting a compelling response, which includes stating the problem or opportunity, associating oneself with a specific solution, and providing an example. The goal is to have a meaningful dialogue and build better client relationships. 

   

In today’s episode we will cover: 

  • The problem of dismissively answering the question  
  • The importance of stating the problem or opportunity  
  • Ways of making connections and finding common ground  
  • How to associate yourself with the solution  
  • How to give an example in transition and next steps to engage in meaningful conversations  
  • We hope you enjoy this episode, and we would love to hear your feedback by having you leave a review. Have a question for us to answer on the podcast? Let us know here!
