b I conducted a Phone Consultation this evening with a couple. I made the offer to complete their Financial Road Map®, which they accepted. When they come in for the Financial Road Map®, experience, do I pre-populate the values staircase for them, have them review it, and begin with the scripting from that point, or do I do the whole values staircase conversation again?
b During the Values Conversation™, the client sometimes goes down a path about a particular aspect of their life, like travel, and may even get to level three, but then indicate that there are some level one and two responses in some other area of their life like children or community. How do we best encourage the client to transition to these other areas of their lives in the conversation without complicating or disrupting the flow of the process?
b How do I identify true values in people's answers? Sometimes my clients will say so many different words; I find it difficult to identify which are the keywords.
b I frequently work with wealthy widows. They are not part of a couple, nor are they looking to begin a relationship. Is there a version of the Financial Road Map® that has one Values Staircase™ or do you have any advice on how to effectively handle this situation the best way possible?
b In my Financial Road Map® Conversations I find that my clients want to talk about the deck, car and the children’s education when I am trying to dig out their Core Values. I am not sure if I am making mistakes or just need to redirect them to their values. I am telling them that we will discuss the Goals in just a few minutes but need for them to go through the Values Conversation™.
