Here Is A Script To Release Your Mind From The Chains Of Disclosure

In my days in the early 1990s working with Anthony Robbins, I facilitated a Sales Mastery Workshop called, “The Power To Influence” and one of the sections of the workshop was on Handling Objections.

Here is an overview and the language to Kill The Future Objections Brought On By Disclosure While They Are Little.

The following can be included as an add-on to your next client review meeting:

• Create Rapport – ask about business/career, family, holiday, travel etc.
• Confirm your client has enough time for the appointment – ask them what time they have to leave? (make sure you have enough time for the following as it may be better to reschedule for another time as it best not to rush)
• Ask your client about what their outcomes are for their appointment with you today – an overview of their agenda.
• Explain the outcomes that you have for the appointment with your client adding your client’s outcomes.

Again, make sure you have time for the items mentioned above as it may be better to reschedule for another time as it is best not to rush.

Here is the language to Kill The Future Objections Brought On By Disclosure While They Are Little.

There are many changes going on in the world. Like everywhere, there are changes going on in the Financial Advisor Profession.
 
Future changes include your Client Investment Statements are going to demonstrate both your Investment and the Fee we receive as your Professional Financial Advisor to Manage Your Investments.
 
Please note that YOU ARE NOT RECEIVING AN INCREASE IN FEES … only that your Statement is going to show the Fee separately that we receive as your Professional Financial Advisor to Manage Your Investments.

YOU ARE NOT RECEIVING AN INCREASE IN FEES.
 
Before we talk about the Fees, let’s talk about our Relationship.
 
We have been working together with me as your Financial Advisor to help you to create a plan to reduce debt, grow your assets, protect your assets and leave a legacy for __ years. Is that correct?
 
Please think back to the following areas and rate yourself on a scale of 1 to 10 (where 10 is high) where you were when we started working together and where you are now.

Debt:
Auto: 1 – 10
Credit Card: 1 – 10
Mortgage:  1 – 10
Stress: 1 – 10
 
So clearly, when we first started our work together to create a plan, to reduce debt, grow your assets, protect your assets and leave a legacy your debt stress was at a level 8 and it has dropped down to a level 2 – 3.

How does that make you feel? Wonderful.
 
Please think back to the following areas and rate yourself on a scale of 1 to 10 (where 10 is high) where you were when we started working together and where you are now in your personal or business life in respect to improvements that we have made through having a plan, to reduce debt, grow your assets, protect your assets and leave a legacy.
 
Increase assets: 1 – 10
Protect assets: 1 – 10
Create a retirement plan: 1 – 10
Fund family education: 1 – 10
Contribute to charitable giving: 1 – 10
 
How does that make you feel? Excellent.

Does the value that you are receiving to create a plan, to reduce debt, grow your assets, protect your assets and leave a legacy make sense to you? Thank you.

As I’ve said, there are changes in the Financial Advisor Profession in respect to the disclosure of the fees that we receive to manage your investments, before the fees were lumped in with your investment statement.

Now the fees we receive to manage your investment is shown separately.

Please remember, there is no increase!
Please remember, there is no increase!
Please remember, there is no increase!

Only that your fees will be separated.

I want to confirm that you have received value by eliminating:
____________________________________
____________________________________
____________________________________
 
I want to confirm that you have received value by improving:
____________________________________
____________________________________
____________________________________

So to confirm, the fees will be shown separately, they are not an increase and these fees will be ( $200, $300, $400, $500 ) per month.

Does it make sense for us to continue our relationship versus trying to manage this yourself?

Thank you.
