Synopsis

Today, financial clients are profoundly skeptical. They’ve been burned. Their consultants and advisors talk too much, use too much confusing technical jargon, work from too many boilerplate scripts, repeat too many generic caveats and useless disclaimers. Above all, clients say, their advisors don’t listen well, and don’t link their own needs and views to the recommendations they present. To succeed in today’s radically new environment, financial advisors must first transform the way they communicate. In The Financial Professional’s Guide to Communication, one of the world’s leading experts on the financial client relationship shows them how to do precisely that. Drawing on his experience training elite financial professionals worldwide, Bob Finder shows how to actively listen, speak plainly with precision and passion, and engage clients with uncommon effectiveness. Finder demonstrates how to focus relentlessly on what matters most to each individual client, and then deliver intensely relevant recommendations with clarity and impact, in your own voice. You’ll learn how to bring imagination, creativity, and even entertainment to your presentations and conversations, and use constructive criticism to keep improving with every new client meeting. Using these proven techniques, you can deliver truly extraordinary levels of professionalism and service, gain the powerful new competitive edge you’re desperately searching for – and earn equally powerful rewards for yourself.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

“Bob Finder’s book is a ‘how to’ in effective communication skills for financial advisors. In my opinion, one of the things that separates advisors in the middle of the pack from those who take this business to the end of the rainbow is good communication skills. Those at the top build lifetime relationships with clients. They have a sparkle that others lack. Bob Finder is offering you the tools to develop the sparkle, for it is that, combined with deep knowledge of your craft, that produces great advisors.”
-- Bill Good, Chairman of Bill Good Marketing, Inc., author of Hot Prospects and Prospecting Your Way to Sales Success

“Bob Finder thoroughly and clearly explains the importance of communication between financial advisors and their clients so clients can be better served and meet their investment objectives. Next to marriage and family, the relationship between financial advisors and their clients is one that both investors and advisors should cherish. Bob’s book is a must-read for all financial advisors and serious investors to properly set their investment objectives and follow a clear path to wealth.”
-- Louis Navellier, Chairman and Founder of Navellier & Associates, Inc.
