Ok my friends, let's talk about being an introvert and still building a successful practice.
When I first started my career as an advisor, I did it ALL. Everything I was "supposed to do."
🙅 going to networking events & trying to get business cards
🙅 blasting messages on Facebook to old friends / colleagues
🙅 cold calling chamber of commerce people
🙅 hitting up my alma matter on LinkedIn
🙅 telling myself “okay, you gotta ask for referrals in every meeting this week!”
… etc. etc. You name it, I did it.
And, I saw results. I mean, you throw enough spaghetti at the wall, something usually sticks.
But, I was miserable. Like, really, really burnt out.
Maybe you're here with me (burnt TF out) or maybe you're just kinda tired of the rat race of go go go every damn day.
And I learned -- for me -- that I was so burnt out because I was doing so many activities that were sapping my energy every day.
Understanding myself deeper, I started to better understand my own energy levels, what depletes me & what fills me with energy -- and THIS my friends is the key to building a successful practice.
So, here are some high level recommendations based on your energy:
If you're an extrovert, these prospecting strategies will work
Going to networking events
Asking for referrals in every meeting
Cold calling
Social prospecting / social observation
Partnerships with CPAs
Keeping 20-30 meetings each week
If you're an introvert, OR someone who wants to simply work less OR you just have less energy than other people, these are the strategies that work:
Using technology to get referrals instead of sheer willpower of “ask in every meeting”
Creating automations to get leads on repeat
Having 1 day off per week to recharge
Not feeling like you’re BOTHERING people when asking for referrals but instead getting people to refer you INBOUND leads
Creating an Automated Linkedin Campaign
Email Marketing
Nesting at Companies
DPM (dedicated prospecting meetings)
