Top Reasons for Advisors To Choose a Niche (and How To Get Started) With Natalie Hales (Ep. 421)

Carl Richards

Emotional intelligence includes the ability to spend most of your client meetings listening – not talking. If that sounds like a tall order, consider this:  Emotional intelligence is a muscle that you can train. In this episode, Matt Halloran talks to Carl Richards, a decade-long columnist for The New York Times and creator and author of “The Behavioral Gap,” about ways to practice emotional intelligence to help you connect with and educate your clients. Carl also shares how he finds the “crunchy bits” to inspire emotionally resonant content, and his advice for any advisor who’s still “the best-kept secret” in their area.   Carl discusses:  His trick for helping people solve their problems while barely saying a word  Two rules he used to drastically reduce how much he was talking during client meetings How to narrow down the unique problem you’re interested in solving for your audience The exact steps he would take, as an advisor, to accelerate his influence and grow his business And more  Resources:   PodRocket Influence Academy (Enroll for FREE) How much influence do you have?

John Waldron

If you’re like the advisors we know, you enjoy continuing education because it equips you to help more people. But you don’t love the time-consuming admin work that often comes with it. Or sitting through courses you don’t find valuable.  What if you could satisfy your continuing education requirements on your own terms, and with less time required?  In this episode, Matt Halloran has a thought-provoking discussion with John Waldron, Founder of Learnedly. They talk about more fulfilling ways to learn (unless you prefer pre-recorded webinars?), how the continuing education landscape is changing, and ways to help your clients spot the red flags of bad finfluencer advice. John discusses:  Why the current landscape of continuing education in Canada’s financial services industry is so fragmented – and how this impacts advisors How to help clients recognize and dodge click-hungry finfluencers Ideas for completing your requirements faster, so you can get back to serving your clients Other continuous education options that put you in a better learning environment (because you’re doing something fulfilling!)
