089: Everything You've Ever Wanted to Know About Charging for a PROSPECT Meeting with Jamie Shilanksi

How do you feel about charging for a prospect meeting? Yes, literally the first time you ever meet with someone,  having them pay you for your time. I know! It sounds foreign and crazy right? What if I told you that advisors do this ALL THE TIME?! And, there is a way to do it where you deliver immense value in that meeting so you can feel so good about having them pay you right off the bat. 

So much imposter syndrome kicks in. I have to determine if we are a good fit for each other? I need to demonstrate value first? I’m not even sure how I can deliver actionable advice in our very first meeting. I KNOW! All the imposter syndrome and head trash kicks in. and I’ve got you. 

Today I am interviewing Jamie Schilanski of  Schilanski & Associates - a firm in Anchorage, Alaska that does exactly this. They charge day one of their client relationships. I never did this in my own business so when I hear a concept you know me… I jump on the mic and interview the snot out of someone who’s doing something unique, innovative or different in this business. 

With the new year right around the corner, this might just be the new thing that pushes you to try something a little different next year. And who knows, it might change the way you do business forever like it did for Jamie and her family firm.
