Our Proven Sales Process: Driven by Relationships, Built on Trust

At the heart of our business lies one essential truth: prospecting is the lifeblood of everything we do. It’s not just the starting point of our sales cycle, it’s woven through every step. From your first conversation with us to ongoing reviews years down the line, every relationship begins with a simple premise: we’re here to help, and we want to earn the opportunity to do so.

Step 1: Prospecting, The Foundation of Success

We believe that strong relationships begin with strong referrals. That’s why referred lead prospecting is the cornerstone of our growth. Rather than cold calls or purchased leads, we rely on favorable introductions from people who already know and trust us.

Referred lead prospecting is powerful because it:

• Opens doors to warm conversations instead of cold pitches
• Saves time and helps us approach better informed
• Provides a consistent pipeline of quality connections
• Reduces the number of outreach attempts needed to schedule meetings
• Enhances rapport from the first conversation
• Builds mutual confidence and sets a foundation of trust

We don’t just meet new people, we build on every relationship by turning satisfied clients into new introductions, creating a cycle of trust that never ends.

Step 2: Telephoning, Securing the Appointment

Once introduced, we reach out via phone to schedule an appointment. This is typically a follow-up to a personal recommendation, email, or text the prospect has already received.

Our objective? Secure a brief meeting where we can learn more about your goals and show how we might be of service. We know your time is valuable, and our aim is to make these conversations clear, professional, and helpful.

Step 3: The Approach, Building Trust Early

The first face-to-face meeting (or virtual, if preferred) is where we begin to establish credibility. We’re here to listen, not to pitch. Our goal is to explain what we do, how we work, and earn your permission to complete a deeper financial discovery through a structured “factfinder.”

This step bridges the initial contact and the deeper planning process that follows.

Step 4: Factfinding, Understanding What Truly Matters

This is the most important, and unique, part of our process.

We go beyond numbers. We ask about:

• Your goals
• Your dreams
• Your responsibilities
• How you feel about your current financial situation

Our role is to have courageous, honest conversations that uncover not just your financial facts, but your emotional and psychological drivers. It’s here that we begin to design a plan that is truly yours.

Step 5: Case Preparation, Crafting Tailored Recommendations

Armed with insight from our factfinding meeting, we get to work. We build custom solutions aligned with your needs, goals, and budget. This step is a blend of strategic planning and empathetic understanding.

People don’t buy products because they understand the technicalities, they buy because they feel understood. That’s our focus: clarity, alignment, and trust.

Step 6: Closing, Empowering You to Take Action

Our goal in this step is simple: help you confidently move forward. We present our recommendations clearly, answer your questions, and address any concerns with professionalism and transparency.

Objections? We welcome them. They’re often just your way of asking for more reassurance, which we’re happy to provide.

Our job is to help you close the gap between where you are and where you want to be. When we do this well, you not only take action, you begin a long-term relationship with a trusted advisor.

Step 7: Implementation & Ongoing Reviews, The Commitment Begins

After the plan is in place, our real work begins.

We manage paperwork, track progress, and most importantly, stay in touch. Life changes, and your financial plan should evolve with it. That’s why we meet with clients annually (or more often when needed) to:

• Review changes in your life
• Evaluate market and regulatory shifts
• Adjust your strategy as needed

We believe that great financial professionals don’t disappear after the sale, they walk alongside you for the journey ahead.

Relationships Are Everything

We understand the responsibility that comes with the role we play in our clients’ lives. For many, we become one of the most trusted professionals they will ever work with.

Our sales process is about more than making a sale, it’s about building a mutually beneficial, enduring relationship rooted in integrity, empathy, and results.
