As a financial advisor, you often have your clients' livelihood in your hands. But as a client to a financial advisor, it almost never feels like this. Why? Simply put, most financial advisors don't understand enough about human psychology to turn logical conversations about money into emotional connections that resonate on a primal level. Without understanding psychology, you'll never be able to impact your clients' and prospective clients' wealth generation as you otherwise would. That's the bad news. The good news? In this episode, financial advisor and behavioral economist, Dave Yeske, joins me to reveal how you can use psychology to better serve your clients. Listen now.

Most financial advisors don't charge enough for one of two reasons: Either their marketing machine isn't up to snuff. Or they don't feel comfortable with charging higher prices.

In other words, charging more is the single best way to improve every aspect of your marketing and business. In this episode, you'll discover why charging higher prices is the best marketing "hack" you can do. And I reveal simple mindset tweaks which help you feel okay with charging more.
