Advice is dead. You can get all the advice you need on the internet. You don’t need a financial advisor.
Anyone with a smart phone has virtually all of the fundamental information needed to manage their investment portfolios online. Technology has broken the levees and unleashed a torrential flood of data and conflicting expert opinions that few can process.
That’s why more than ever in history, investors need personal, face to face advice from advisors and advisory teams who:
1. Have mastered investing and insurance.
2. Understand investment psychology.
3. Know how to hold a purposeful conversation.
No one knows for certain how to lead anymore. Fast history and unrestrained on-demand communications have sapped the traditional sources of leadership authority. Today’s leaders must let go of the past, re-evaluate their style, and master next generation sources of influence at an unprecedented pace.
It’s about developing the new face of a leader: one who leads through change, challenge and adversity. In Leadership Game-Changers, Alan arms leaders with the understanding needed to set a fresh and fulfilling path to the changing future.
Questions are the secret sauce of great advisors. Great Advisors ask the right questions, listen to the answers and use their clients’ success as their measure of achievement.
Based on the book named One of the 10 Must-Read Books for Advisors and Top 10 Read on Amazon*, this presentation dives into the questions great financial advisors ask to boost money under management, increase average account size and create clients for life.
Why do client relationships matter so much? In our current business landscape the relationship between your clients and you is the key differentiator between lost revenue and accelerating growth.
In Building Profitable Client Relationships, Alan reveals the essential building blocks of profitable client relationships that endure. Audiences come out of this keynote with ideas and tools that can immediately be put into action.

Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.
Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.
The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.
Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.
Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.
