Rethink Your Relevance
How To Get Started Thinking Differently...

What is Micro-Learning?

 

  • What if there were a place where you could go, that was available 24 hours a day, to help you amplify your unique value?
  • What if it only took minutes of your time and energy to see benefits from your incremental effort?
  • What if it were a platform built specifically for you? 
  • Would you take advantage of it?

With micro-learning, advisors just need to take a few minutes in their schedule to improve their infinite value that can make them invaluable to their ideal audience for years to come.

Micro-learning is a technique that involves tiny chunks of information, ingested in short bursts of time. This is in-line with the way the brain naturally takes in and retains information, making it an effective way to learn.



It is granular… each lesson serves as its own unit but serves as a part of a larger objective in the progression of your advisor value development.

 

Incremental Steps. Exponential Results.

 

After your initial completion of the Infinite Alpha Cycle…You can watch any lesson in any order while gaining a broader perspective on a more dynamic or complex concept. 

You can learn from one end of the spectrum to the other, and piece the micro-sessions together to create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.

Traditional learning is linear and trainer driven while micro learning is multidimensional flexible and driven by the learner.

This is all about you…We don’t interrupt your life, ever. You don’t have to wait for the rest of the class to catch up. The benefits are unique to you. Stop and start at your convenience. You are in complete control of your advisor value development.

Our modular learning program has been designed to create a seamless flow… from your working-mind to actionable-concepts to tangible-results in minutes.

Make the adaptations required for your business to thrive in a robo-world by learning, in minutes, exactly how to amplify your unique value, control how it is perceived, and maximize your relevance… 24/7.

Micro-Learning is exactly what you need to remain relevant in the new age of financial services. Enjoy the journey!

How Are You Spending Yours?

Aug 21, 2019

We Are All Millionaires

 

 

 

 

Time is so precious. Read what my dad would like you to know about time…

 

To the Genuinely Concerned,

The two most valuable “currencies of life” are Money and Time.

What if I gave you $1,000,000 dollars that you were required to spend by June 30, 2020 . The only rule is you must exhaust the money.

What would you have accomplished with the money you spent? You most likely will create a plan on the best way to spend the money. Well done. Well thought out.

Now, what if I told you that you have 1,000,000 minutes to spend by June 30, 2020. The reality is you will have spent 1,000,000 minutes by that date.

What will you have accomplished with the time you spent?

Every 694 days (1.9 years) we blow through 1,000,000 minutes of our life. What do we have to show for it? We spent a million minutes on what? How much time did we waste? Did we get a great return on our time commitment?

Do we have a plan for spending our most precious commodity? Are we living day to day without any discipline? Do we structure our work-day to be so efficient that our personal time also becomes fruitful? Do we know the most effective work habits to produce the best return on our time commitment?

Between Money and Time it is obvious which is most valuable. Our time on earth is limited and by default becomes our most precious and prized possession.

The difference between spending a million dollars and a million minutes is the reality of never getting those minutes back. They are gone forever and are irreplaceable. Money can be replaced, time cannot.

Of the 1,000,000 minutes, 240,000 minutes are spent sleeping. How productive are we with the 760,000 remaining minutes?

There are extraordinary achievements in all of us. It takes work and forethought to make them happen.

What are you going to accomplish with your next 1,000,000 minutes? Got a Plan?

Don’t look back and only be able to say “I shouldn’t have wasted that time”.

Life is not a dress rehearsal. Live every moment with purpose. Each moment is gone forever.

This Is My Filter

Aug 20, 2019

My Digital Filter

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is my filter, it belongs to me.

It is not a sales funnel.

I do not sell products in a vacuum.

I am not interested in trying to be all things to all people.

I work only with ideal like-minded people.

This is my filter.

It keeps out the time wasters, the energy suckers, and the complaining riff-raff.

I am not here to interrupt.

I am not interested in a drip marketing or lead development.

I am here to educate and inform my ideal audience.

This is my filter.

I publish my purpose, principles, and opinions.

Prospects can’t get in if they don’t qualify… Nor would they want to.

This is my filter.

I make my alpha tangible for the world to see and hear.

I do well by doing good.

I have published my experiences and expertise.

This is my filter.

I promise my behavior and in return my trusted clients promise their behavior to me.

My experiences and my expertise have helped my design my model of wisdom available for digital consumption.

This is my filter.

I have a deep understanding of how my value makes my clients feel.

I am known for the quality of my curiosity.

This is my filter.

Clients that come to me for discounts will leave me for discounts.

I never discount my value.

This is my filter.

My wisdom and my value are omnipresent 24/7 for the world to consume.

I have an accountability model that earns trust quickly.

I work with great people, I fire bad clients.

This is my filter.

To remain relevant I am in complete control the perception of my value.

My value is defined by me, and nobody else.

This truly is, nobody’s business but mine… and this is my filter.

 

Do you have a filter?

24/7 Feedback in a Robo-World

Aug 16, 2019

Metrics That Matter

Feedback is Happening 24/7

Your Metrics

  • In a digital omnichannel world, feedback is happening 24/7 with likes, comments, DM’s, social shares, etc…

  • It feels like there is a new way to give and receive digital feedback every day. 

  • In order to gather the metrics that move your business you must be able to ask great questions and get honest responses. 

  • Your clients must give you honest feedback to become trusted partners… you need trusted partners as clients to survive and thrive in a robo world. 

To cultivate trust in a digitally transparent world, simply follow the Infinite Advisor Alpha Progression.

Get and Keep Ideal Clients

Earning Trust in a Robo-World

In the Future…

How will financial advisors get and keep ideal clients?

This is a walk-through for the first six micro-learning modules of Infinite Advisor Alpha

  1. Purpose  You must lead with a client centered purpose to remain relevant in the digital age.
  2. Principles  Your principles must be documented to create tangible accountability in a robo-world.
  3. Opinions  You must distinguish your authority as a trusted source of wisdom.
  4. Experiences  Creating tangible touch-points, that your clients and ideal prospects can associate with, is imperative for your survival.
  5. Expertise  Your expertise must be defined by you… in words that your ideal audience can understand and appreciate.
  6. Behavior  You can’t promise returns… you must promise your behavior to survive in a robo-world.

 

Building a solid foundation of trust is a two-way street in the digital era of financial services. Not only must you convey your wisdom and integrity 24/7… but your digital marketing campaigns must be relied upon to filter in ideal trusted, like-minded prospects… while simultaneously reminding your current clientele of your unique authentic value… 24/7.

If you are a returning advisor, this should encourage you to keep moving down the right path…

If you haven’t taken the plunge, please feel free to dip a toe into our pool of wisdom. Our sole purpose is to help good people get better… every day.

Enjoy the journey,

Grant
