A lot of financial advisors struggle getting clients. They can (usually) keep them once they find them, but finding them is a constant uphill battle.

Why? 

Well, after helping thousands of financial advisors, I’ve realized there are 7 fundamental reasons why financial advisors struggle to get clients. 

If you don’t fix these 7 mistakes, you will struggle to get clients forever. Sounds harsh, but it’s true. 

The good news is, if you listen to—and implement—everything in today’s episode, you’ll never starve for clients again. 

Listen now.
