New clients fuel growth, but without the right team, your firm will always hit a ceiling.
That’s exactly why I wanted to speak with Michael & Laura Lehrhaupt, founders of Strategies for Wealth Management and longtime Triad members, who scaled their firm from $41M to $67M in just three years—without adding more hours to their week.
Their growth didn’t come from just one strategy, it was a combination of TV, webinars, seminars, and educational events, all working together to create an omnipresent brand that positioned them as the go-to firm in their market. They also built a 35,000-person database and implemented a nurturing system that turned cold leads into warm conversations and repeat clients.
But the real game-changer? Relentless advisor development. Their daily 9:30 AM training sessions transformed junior advisors into $20M+ producers, proving that growth isn’t just about marketing, it’s about building a team that can scale the business beyond you.
3 of the biggest insights from Michael & Laura Lehrhaupt …
#1.) The Power of Omnipresence: Marketing that makes you the go-to advisor in your area requires more than one funnel. Learn how Michael & Laura built a brand that follows prospects everywhere—across TV, webinars, seminars, and educational events.
#2.) Why Most Advisors Fail at Hiring & Training: It’s not just about finding talent, it’s about developing it. Discover the daily training framework that transformed their junior advisors into $20M+ producers.
#3.) How a 35,000-Person Database Became a Goldmine: Most advisors ignore their existing audience. Michael & Laura share how they nurture relationships, create re-engagement campaigns, and drive revenue from past clients and prospects.
