Whether you’re in the thick of client meetings or juggling team leadership with family life, this system will help you stop spinning your wheels and start finishing the right things.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode: 🔍 The truth about the SEC vs. state regulation (and what that means for you) 📅 What needs to be on your compliance calendar and how often you should update your ADV 💼 Why you might not need your Series 7 anymore—and what you give up if you drop it 💡 How outsourcing compliance can actually free up your time and reduce risk 🔥 Real talk on what happens if you neglect your compliance responsibilities (hint: probably not jail—but still not good) Kent’s approach to compliance is refreshingly practical. He shares how he helps advisors stay ahead of the game without feeling overwhelmed or bogged down in legal jargon 💬. Plus, we wrap with a few of his top productivity hacks as a business owner—including how turning off Outlook can be a game-changer ⏳. Compliance doesn’t have to be scary.

249: Impact Score: Rate Your Client Service Model 26:51

hace 10 weeks26:51

Are you doing things in your business just because you think you're supposed to? Too often, financial advisors continue running the same client service playbook without questioning its true value. In this episode, we introduce an unconventional KPI—your Impact Score—to help you evaluate whether your client service efforts are making a real difference. By measuring both impact and effort, you can determine if it’s time to refine your approach, shift your focus, or even cut out initiatives that no longer serve your clients. Key takeaways from this episode: How to use the Impact Score (1-4 scale) to evaluate meetings, webinars, events, and client touchpoints Why some of your long-standing service offerings may no longer be as valuable as you think The power of "killing your darlings"—eliminating low-impact, high-effort activities to free up resources A step-by-step process to audit your service calendar and maximize value for your clients How to shift your time and energy toward more high-impact activities that create real client engagement By the end of this episode, you’ll have a clear framework to assess whether your efforts are truly moving the needle or if it’s time to redirect that energy elsewhere. Let’s make sure every touchpoint in your client experience is purposeful, impactful, and worth your time! ----------------------- Episode 106: The Ultimate Value Add for 2023: Low Difficulty, High Impact with Blake Brewer Episode 182: RESULTS: How this advisor deepened his relationship and impacted clients w/ guest John Scherer Episode 95: 4 KPIs to Measure Productivity and to Actually Track Efficiency *FREE DOWNLOAD* Register for How to Prep for Full Financial Plan Updates in 10 Minutes (Without Sacrificing Quality!) - HERE!

Behavioral finance… it can feel like a buzz term. But what it is really? Is behavioral finance really an actual need? How does it REALLY help you as an advisor deliver better financial advice?
