Bill and Todd discuss how:

  • One simple video campaign went viral and generated $20 million in revenue.
  • He and his partner moved from generic seminars to events targeting a large employer in his area, converting 50 percent of the attendees into new clients.
  • They moved from formal presentations and “Death by Powerpoint” into more informal sessions, covering less information and telling more stories. This significantly increased their conversion rate.
  • The concept of “Your Client Focused Why” has helped Todd’s team to differentiate themselves, win new clients, and become super referable, with each advisor sharing their “why” in a video on their website.
  • The team focuses on helping their clients create and act on their own definition of abundance. This creates deeper and super-loyal client relationships.
  • …And more!
