TOPIC DESCRIPTIONS:
Practical Strategies for Maximizing Productivity
It's no secret that excelling at time, information, and resource management is essential to becoming more productive. This presentation shows you how to develop and blend those three skills successfully to execute almost automatic business improvements. In it, you will learn how to: 1. permanently conquer information overload with a simple system for cataloging knowledge and content, 2. build a systematic, measurable, and repeatable roadmap to success, and, 3. put an hour of selling time back into every day by taming today's #1 productivity killer: email. All using technology you currently own.
Making the Web Work for Advisors
Smarter use of the Internet can enhance virtually every aspect of your business. Yet many only see the Web as a way of getting email, stock quotes, and sports scores. This session will open your eyes to the amazing business development power the Internet offers. Full of practical, ready-to-implement ideas, it is designed specifically to address challenges financial services professionals face in growing and maintaining client relationships. (Please note: it is not about designing Web sites). Come learn what you need to know to leverage the Web to find, win, and keep clients faster and with less frustration.
101 Ways to Get Closer to Clients -- Communicating Effectively in the Digital Age
