Why Educating Prospects Is Horrible Marketing Strategy


Listen Later

Most financial advisors have been sold a lie from so-called marketing experts that causes you to waste your time for no results, fills you with frustration, and makes the already tough job of growing your business infinitely more difficult…

The lie?

Educating, teaching, and "giving value" in your marketing. While this might seem like a strategy that works, it collapses immediately when you think about it.

Here's why:

When you're teaching and "giving value," you're activating the logical side of the brain, not the emotional side. But the emotional side is the one that buys and invests in anything.

That's the bad news.

The good news?
