Advocis Vancouver – The Sky’s The Limit Professional Development Day

Many thanks to Warren Campbell, President of Advocis Vancouver and to C.J. Sidhu, Past President/Professional Development Chair for all of their help to make The April 20^th Advocis Vancouver – The Sky’s The Limit Professional Development Day as success.

The event was held at the Morris J Wosk Centre which is one of the most beautiful and technologically advanced presentation rooms that I have had the pleasure to speak at.

I really appreciated the opportunity to present Clear Your Roadblocks To Success and Clear Your Roadblocks To Client Engagement and here is what some of the attendees had to say.

“Lots of information shared quickly, efficiently and clearly. I enjoyed the limiting beliefs session. It was great to see this type of presentation finally in our industry Pro Days. Thanks!

I didn’t expect to see some very relevant materials other than technical stuff. Starting with you – it all begins there. Practice management how simple it is to free up the mind.”
Penny Deming
SHEfinancial Group Inc.

“Most improved speaker I have seen in the last 5 years. Also it is very refreshing to see sponsorship of Advocis and corporate sponsors for speakers who want to make change.”
Bill Murdoch
Freedom 55 Financial

“Excellent tips on organization and addressing negative thought processes and how to break negative patterns. Needs must be met and you cannot meet them through others. How to exercise through this is as important as a journal.”
Tannis Rowe
Maclean Rowe Financial

“Great passion in the delivery and excellent depth of material. Presentation was very applicable to all levels in this industry. Very up to date with the times.”
Douglas Starink

“Great energy and understanding of advisor behaviors. The material related to our problems and goals. The key to success is having written and specific goals within a time frame.”

“Thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere and the speaker’s dynamics. Very positive, a solid Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) event/presentation.”
Michael A. Davis

“It was an excellent reminder of my “psychology” major in University. I am a real believer in the “Self Fulfilling Prophecy.”
Gloria Zonailo
Peak Investment Services Inc.

“Open, honest, challenging and a summary of many concepts I’ve heard before. In other words, a wakeup call to get back to basics and follow my plan/system. I am encouraged and challenged to get back to the basics and plan!”
Bryan Jakeman
Jakeman Financial Group (London Life)

“Great review for me at this time in my career. I loved Part 2. Excellent information on how to conduct business effectively – values based. Two presentations from Simon in one day what a bonus. I am excited to read the book and receive a copy of the Practice Management Presentation. I am sure it will be great.”
