Why does this matter?
Due to the average life-time value of a client, first meetings are among advisers’ most profitable activities. Not only that, research shows that clients typically interview only a few advisers before making a decision. This means the stakes are high – it is not the place to be rehearsing and honing skills.
Who is this mentoring programme for?
It’s particularly useful for you if:
You feel reluctant to “sell” yourself, struggle to communicate your value and lack confidence discussing fees.
It’s also useful for you if:
You want more structure to your meetings. Perhaps you tend to “wing” them, find you’re often re-creating the wheel and slowing the momentum.
And it’s for you if:
You have been ghosted one too many times
You aren’t sure how to ask for the business, without sounding salesy
You need to increase your client bank
You want a step-by-step roadmap to follow – without sounding rigid.
You could be part of a boutique financial advice firm. Or in a team looking to improve consistency, client experience and outcomes.
Please book a call so that I can ensure it’s a good fit for you or your team.

What’s involved?
Over six months, you will access:
Self-paced modules (for information and practical application), via a learning platform.
12 x fortnightly group coaching calls (to discuss, rehearse and reflect). These 60 minute sessions are held on Tuesdays at 12pm. They’re recorded so you can watch them again.
Two face-to-face training days to develop your skills in a safe setting (held in Bristol).
These are high impact days. We do lots of conversational practice, we sketch and we fine tune your skills so that you are confident and client ready!

Each face to face day is an additional £200 (plus VAT).
If you’d like your team to join, we can discuss a group price – depending on the size.
Please book a call so that I can ensure it’s a good fit for you or your team.
