We get curious questions why we track popular people and their birthdays which are non-related to wealth management, financial markets and investments.
Here are 10 reasons why:
- Clients don’t care about complex solutions, neither can they understand them.
- There are hundreds of banks and thousands of wealth managers, your solution is not the best, and may be the worst.
- If they don’t like you, no matter how low your fees are or how good your solution is, they will not listen to you.
- No matter how expert you are, you need to find a willing listener.
- A good conversation is different from a real conversation.
- Every sales pitch starts with an ice breaker, that sounds real.
- You can’t accurately predict financial market, so keep those conversation short.
- If you need an excuse to be personable & emotional, linking to famous people you know always help.
- There is no better connections than birthday connections.
- And there is no better announcement than having the same birthdays as Michael Jackson, Taylor Swift, Jet Li, Jackie Chan.
