Do you have weekly scheduled meetings with your internal partner?
If not, why not?
And the answer ‘we speak every day’ is not an excuse.
Here’s a list of 11 topics you should be working through:
1. Pipeline review: what sort of business is in the pipeline, from which advisors, at what stage of evolution, and how can we get it to close?
2. New prospect conversations: who have we talked to in the last week that should have a home on our Top 50 Prospect list?
3. Existing producer issues/opportunities: are there any outstanding issues that are smoldering with any of our best folks? Are there any opportunities available to make them love us more?
4. Wins of the week: where did we succeed and, as important, how can we replicate the success?
5. Marketing plans for the week ahead: how will we spread ‘presence in our absence’ this week ahead via email, voicemail and snail mail?
6. Coordinate product stories: are we singing from the same sheet of music or telling wildly different versions of our product stories?
7. Coordinate sales ideas: are both partners in tune with the latest, and most successful, sales ideas that we are each using?
8. Synchronize PVP-Peerless Value Proposition®: more than product or service, how are we branding ourselves each day in the region?
9. Event planning: what needs to be accomplished re PM visits, road shows, advisor outings, etc. and how will we make these events memorable?
10. Skill building: what can we learn to do together that will improve our ability to perform (e.g. advisor recon, using Evernote, etc.)?
11. Recognition and celebration: have we stopped running long enough to celebrate our successes?
Additionally, if you have a scheduler, admin, sales assistant, etc., they should be on this strategy call too.
