Stop calling yourself a broker or adviser
“You are not in the financial business; you are in the relationships business. We need to understand the magic of relationships. Do you have a system to deliver on client experience? What is it that clients can get from you? Uniqueness is critical, you have to be radically different to engage clients. We are living in a digital economy. Are your websites and social media platforms up to date? Clients are checking you out before even engaging with you. The LinkedIn errors we make, for example, include sharing way too much wrong information, not using story or analogy instead of data and financial spam, having a bad profile, not integrating yourself into the content etc.,” said Morris.
“Equip clients with a surfboard and surfing lessons to prevent them from financially drowning in the inevitable realities of the tsunami wave that we currently face,” added Morris.
“No client wakes up and thinks ‘I need another endowment or policy today’, because what we do is generally considered as boring. Your job description it to befriend, intrigue, disturb and offer options. You have to have campaigns. You have to have processes in place. You have to learn how to be intriguing,” emphasised Morris.
“Stop calling yourself a financial adviser or short term agent or broker. People don’t want to hear that in the befriending process… they run. You have to give people an Ooo moment, not an Aaaa moment. This is how the conversation could go, ‘Hi what do you do for a living?’ ‘I re-position family balance sheets (PAUSE), funding for possibility and probability’. Is what you are saying and sending bringing in guaranteed outcomes?” questioned Morris.
He then went on to share a multitude of family, friend and prospect campaigns, highlighting the simple tactics one can use to engage and grab attention.
Power tools
In sharing the basic ground rules to getting your thoughts “read and spread” Morris said,” you should use voice over audio, use pictures, lock your logo and contact details with content into a pdf, always include extra value after the article or content. Send the client a whatsapp 15 second summary alerting them to your email. Deply come power tools.”
The power tools Morris highlighted included:
“Be a product of your product, and evoke emotions,” said Morris.
