At times, clients feel at ease when talking to me.
They find my explanation simple and easy to understand.
I never talk too long, yet not too short.
Just nice. 🙂
Today, I will let out a little secret here. (You are very lucky, coz I dont have much secrets anyway 😛 )
If you are a financial associate like me, take my advice and I assure you, you will have lots of clients waiting eagerly, to get a plan from you without having you trying to persuade them much.
If you are my client right now, you will be nodding your head in full agreement, acknowledging what I will explain here.
Its a fact.
Everyone in Singapore knows the importance of financial planning.
They know its is very important to have insurance for coverage, to have savings for their future needs,and to have investments to meet their financial objectives in life.
This is the status quo in Singapore as majority are well educated today.
For many, they know all that.
For many, they just wants transparency in your dealings as an advisor and sincerity in your effort in recommending quality financial instruments to them.
When I communicate with my clients, I will always, always be very direct.
Straight to the point.
…and I love educated clients, because they know what I am going to say and usually even before I complete my presentation, they will just say “Okay, I will sign up the plan with you”.
I will retort “I have yet to complete my presentation. Its better for me to complete it so that you can have a clearer picture.”
Some will answer ” No need. My brother, my friends, my relatives etc2, is an insurance agents, and I get the plan from you because you explain about the plan in simple terms and I know it’s for me”.
End of story.
So… First thing first. Be very transparent.
Tell all your clients about the benefits they will get and also the charges involved. Tell you clients, what you expect from them.
Generally, advisor like us expect commitment from the client so as the clients themselves can reapt the fullest potential from the plan they have undertake.
Second thing, trustability.
I am very happy that majority of my clients trust me as their financial associates.
From trust, we build relationship, and from there, the cycle of financial planning continues.
That is what we called “long lasting business relationships”! 🙂

I have read from other people’s blogs, comparing honourable professions like financial advisors and salespeople.
Indeed, we have common attributes.
We have common similarities.
We work on ethics and we earn a living by recommending best solutions to our clients.
We fulfil our clients needs.
We provide good service to our clients.
Some of my clients tell me, the reason why they get the financial instruments from me, is because they can see passion burning from my eyes.
Indeed, they can always get financial instruments from those advisers who have been in business for over 20, 30 years, but they choose me, because they understand that I care for them, and I am only interested to recommend what I believe is BEST for them.
I declare all the charges involved, and they understand that I am earning a living out of this well honoured profession.
I give them good advice, assisting them in their planning to meet their financial objectives and motivate them to make decisions.
Decisions that they make, and they will live with it forever.
Decisions that they embraced, helping them to meet their objectives.
Decisions that they will appreciate.
At the end of the day. they will look at me and thank me for giving such a solid, yet simple financial recommendations.
I have clients who told me, that “I should have met you 5,10,15 years ago”.
I have clients who asked me. “When are you getting married?Do you have a girlfriend already?”
I have lots of clients who are really very, very good to me. 🙂
The bottom line is all of us are salespeople.
Be it you are a lawyer, you are a teacher, you are an accountant, you are a businessman…. , Come on…..
Touch your heart and tell yourself “I am indeed a salesperson in my profession. My duty is to convince myself, convince the people around me, of my capability to deliver value to others.”
Being in sales is also a honourable profession.
Yes!
I am talking from experience.
I have been in sales since I was a kid.
So do you.
Remember the days when you cried, grumbled when your parents refused to give the toy that you really want?
Remember the days when you are a toddler, being very cute, capturing the hearts of your parents?
Okay.
The verdict ends here.
All of us are salespeople, directly or indirectly.
Sales is a noble profession and no one should use it as a catalyst, to degrade other people’s professions! 🙂

I want you to listen to it.
Listen to it with feelings.
Feel it intensely.
Forget about your failures.
Forget about your past.
Forget about your insecurities.
Throw it all out,dispose it in a plastic bag, and sealed it tight.
Forget about it, because you are not going to live the past.
You are going to live your future, with immense joy, laughter, and the intense feeling of fulfilment awaits you.
You are going to be the Number 1 In Your Industry.
You are going to be popular.
You are going to be wealthy.
You are going to be rich.

You choose your path.
No ones owes you a living.
You are on your own, in your thoughts.

I remember the days when we were in primary school.
Its a joyous session where all of us, were together in a hall and we were taught festive seasons songs.
We were taught Hari Raya celebration songs.
We were taught Chinese New Year celebration songs.
We were taught Deepavali songs.
Different types of songs.
and…. I remember vividly this song.
Enjoy! 🙂
