More About This Episode:
A lot of advisors struggle with sales. Some fear being too aggressive Others are worried they’ll become too busy. But is this stemming from a deeper fear of success?
On today’s episode, we are joined by the founder of Sales Pro Insider, author, and speaker, Nancy Bleeke. Originally starting her journey in financial services, she has transitioned into training advisors and their staff at sales. A lot of advisors don’t consider themselves as natural salespeople and Nancy is helping them become more skilled and confident throughout the industry.
Nancy sees balance as a personal decision that we have to consciously make. Balance to one person is going to look different to another. You can’t achieve balance until you define what balance looks like inside of your own life.
If you enjoy your job, as many advisors do, it can be difficult to intentionally build those boundaries. Nancy has seen advisors struggle with balancing the roles and responsibilities of their business, something that flows into their personal lives as well.
Advisors are in this industry to help people. But in order to help clients, you have to convince them to make the confident decision to invest in your services. Sales is an essential part of the financial industry. With Nancy, we discuss why advisors struggle with sales and how it’s impacting their journey to find balance.
Join us today as we further discuss:

· How advisors struggle with balance inside of their business
· Why do some advisors struggle with sales and success?
· How Nancy is helping advisors confidently convert sales in their business?
