Be a Better Advisor This Year Introduction What does being a better advisor mean? -

To you being a better advisor may mean more clients, more

money, or more job satisfaction. -

Your clients perceive you as being a better advisor when you

serve their needs. You are responsive, informed, and know what is best for them. -

The fundamental job description for a financial advisor is a

person who provides financial advice or guidance to others for compensation. -

You would agree you are better than that!

-

This course gives you some ideas based on products and

services you can provide that will easily move you beyond the fundamental description towards being the better advisor clients and prospects reward with their business. -

Being better at your job does not mean learning about a slew of

new products or services. It does mean applying what you know about what already exists to each client situation. -

Align your knowledge with circumstances and needs. Fit the

square peg to the square hole. -

We will review the following:


o

How the most basic know-your-client information can be

crucially important; o How to help seniors manage their finances; o Why segregated funds deserve your attention; o The four RRSP maturity options; o The need for life insurance to cover the mortgage; o The reasons travel health insurance should not be provided by credit cards and via group insurance; o Whether fraud may be an issue to your clients; o The consequences of a breach of privacy; o How to leverage your hard-acquired learning.
