This is good info for newer advisors looking to get into wealth management. I’m an 8 year RICP myself. I agree with Josh on the antiquated “project 200” concept of practically begging your friends/family to meet. You have to get in front of as many people as possible with a solid presentation/process and get business paid. I also agree that while doing that you HAVE TO MARKET yourself in as many ways as possible. I started out doing final expense / burial insurance - buying direct mail leads and seeing people in their homes. Not the sexiest start but I immediately was making $3k-$5k a week. Driving all over and spending lots on leads though. This can be a great way to get paid quickly and immediately without starving while you focus on bigger goals. After 2 years when I had solid renewal commissions I moved into the planning aspects with a big mutual company. Now I focus mainly on retirement income planning. Getting started on insurance or even Medicare, annuities / Disability can be a great way to get into the industry without starving and allows you to meet vets and hear about different avenues you can take. Going straight in to wealth management can be tough since you’re managing assets and you need to build up a big book to have a decent income. I also found that by not going to friends and family early on, that years in as I became more successful my friends and family came to me on their own once they saw I was legit and not going to be in and out of the biz. Good luck to new advisors and great content Josh!

Hey Matt, do you have a service you recommend I am looking into this right now.

Hey Josh. I'm interviewing with a few firms to make a move to an advisor or advisor support role. One of my potential managers put me onto a book that called The Game of Numbers by Nick Murray. I feel like it was written for me, and maybe for many others watching this video. It covers the philosophy behind prospecting and the thought process that goes behind it. I would highly recommend.

The beginning is absolutely brutal. This video was helpful, thanks.

I just came across your video and it’s everything I needed to hear. Will start implementing in the morning. THANK YOU!

Thank you so much! I am finally in a space where I can build my financial boutique agency. Cant keep neglecting the marketing part!!! You've encouraged me to launch my finance in ASL youtube platform!

Thank you so much for this Josh! Helps alot!

You get me really excited about becoming a Financial Advisor

Love the Jack Butcher ‘This is Pointless’ image in the background. It’s my background as well. Love his stuff.

Hey Josh great video! I'm 19 and have a financial advisor internship this summer and your videos really help me prepare me for what to expect. Keep it up man!

Hey brother Josh! Do you have any video about the best courses for becoming the financial advisor. A road map (steps to become a good and succesful financial advisor)

Wow, so much in-depth knowledge in handling Oliver's circumstance!!! $150k "just sitting" in a checking account as an early twenties-something?? 🤯

The ‘great wealth transfer’ is indeed underway ..

great video...faith plus action leads to growth

Im currently finishing up my first full year of advising. Definitely in the seed planting phase and haven’t really seen any fruit at all this first year. Sometimes it’s hard to keep faith because it seems like all the work I do bears no results. Ive been going to every networking event I can attend and have been trying my best to network as much as possible. I haven’t been making any social media content which is where I plan to improve. Surviving this first year has been beyond hard, but videos like this give me hope that things can change. Thanks

Hi Donovan. I'd like to advise you to also look at your network from high school/ university days. We often think people around us won't listen to us but always ask yourself "are they covered adequately (insurance) and can I offer them something better?" People like seeing what they can save and if there are added benefits. Same with investments. Good luck🙏

I love everything about finances and investing.. I want to be a financial advisor to myself.

This is very similar to notary agent.

Starting from the ground up recently allowed us to get started on the hybrid model early. We plug directly into 3rd party asset managers like a TAMP would in the RIA space down south. No active securities license. A ton of independent advisors are migrating this way now.
