Home / Before Financial Road Map™ / Follow-Up Phone Call (Prospective Clients)

The 'already have an advisor' question during the Follow Up Phone Call has a scripted answer (Mod.#5, p.103) that has not worked very well for me. Is it OK to use the script for the same question during the Phone Consultation (Mod.#6, p.43) as it addresses more directly the benefit of having a Financial Road Map® regardless of the advisor? [E.g. "That's fine. Then you'll appreciate Values-Based Financial Planning™ and having a Financial Road Map®. It'll enhance the work you do with your current advisor. You can compare your existing plan to your Financial Road Map®, and you'll know for sure that you're on track.]

b How do I get people to come to my office for the first meeting when they frankly sometimes don’t even know if they want to meet me AND to bring their documents? I know referrals are best and I am working towards referrals only, but this other prospecting method does happen sometimes and may be happening for others as they get started building their practices.
b I am not sure if I should explain what the Financial Road Map® is about or if this is too much detail. Sometimes when we email the client a list of the documents needed for the meeting they seem surprised. What should I tell them when asked what is this all about?
b I had a situation where I initially completed a Self-Referral Conversation and then conducted a Phone Consultation™ with an older prospect. He liked the process and said that his two children would like the Financial Road Map® as well. The older prospect then said that he would give his children a copy of the Values-Based Financial Planning book to read. I was thinking on offering a book to each of the client’s kids and conducting Phone Consultations™ but not having the parent alter the process by providing their book to their kids. How would you respond?
b What language do you use to set up a Financial Road Map® with prospects?
b Can you let me know if what I said in the following situation was the best possible answer or if I should have given them more detail? I completed a Phone Consultation™ with a couple and it went well but they both indicated that they are not sure how the Financial Road Map Interview™ will apply to them. They just recently retired and they seem to keep going back to the statement that this Values-Based Financial Planning™ process applies to younger folks and not them. They are in their early 60's. She has skimmed the book I sent, and he has not. I did explain how ongoing monitoring of their financial house would be beneficial from a pro-active standpoint but I'm reluctant to go into too many details until they actually come into my office for their complete their Financial Road Map Interview™.
