About this episode…

Part one of this industry update discussed the questions you need to ask yourself before considering a move. That is, to determine the following: Is there enough to gain from going through the hassle of a due diligence process?

This episode picks up where we left off for those who answered “Yes” to that question and are motivated to explore options elsewhere.

Why does it matter? Because many advisors get stuck at this juncture. They know things aren’t perfect and should look elsewhere. Still, they don’t know where to begin—often trapped by inertia, overwhelm, confusion, lack of clarity, or anxiety about the due diligence process.

The goal of this episode is to help make the process more thoughtful and strategic for those who have decided that they are motivated to embark upon due diligence, sharing key areas to pay attention to, including:

  • A review of the actual due diligence process—and what steps are critical to ensuring a thorough and strategic exploration exercise.
  • Curating a list of options—and how to identify what to include or exclude.
  • The questions to ask—and what answers are most important to the decision-making process.
  • Common traps and missteps—and how to avoid them.
  • Plus, an overview of the industry landscape—and why it’s essential to understand the various options before diving in…and much more.

No doubt, the process of considering change can be a daunting one. But when approached first from the perspective of “should I consider a move?” and then conducting due diligence with a goal and plan, the path becomes much clearer.

It’s an episode that will shed light on this important practice, providing value to those considering change, as well as those who may simply want to understand their options or develop their “Plan B.”

    • I listened to every episode before making my transition. Hearing the mindset and tactics of the industry’s best advisors was amazing. Perspective is so important and that is what you consistently bring to your audience.

      Matt Blocki
      CEO, Equilibrium Wealth Advisors
    • Your podcast helped me a ton during my due diligence. There is no replacement for hearing from others who were successful leaving the wires. You are doing great things for the industry.

      Rory O’Hara
      Founder, Senior Managing Partner – Ausperity Private Wealth
    • A fantastic bundle of wisdom from one of the very best Curators of all things Wealth Management.

      Jim Dickson
      Founder - Sanctuary Wealth
    • I love the fact that you are talking to a diverse group of people in our industry and educating us all. We are all doing our own thing, so it’s helpful listening to other interviews and hearing about different approaches to the business.

      Brock Moseley
      Founder, Miracle Mile Advisors
    • I didn’t realize what I could do until I heard what other advisors were doing. Then week after week, it was like the gaps were filled in. Without it, I wouldn’t have had the confidence to go independent. Even after transitioning, I still can’t wait for Thursday mornings to hear the latest interview.

      Jerry Davidse
      CEO, Presilium Private Wealth
    • Best new resource I have come across in a long while.

      Daniel Gude
      Senior VP at LPL Financial
    • I would say one of the best things I ever did was listen to your podcast. I listened to it a thousand times. There are so many aspects to explore. You’re driving blind until you actually engage a professional.

      Michael Henley
      Founder & CEO, Brandywine Oak Private Wealth
    • This is outstanding. Every team considering independence should listen.

      Chris Cooke
      Managing Partner, Cooke Financial Group
    • Every advisor at a brokerage firm should listen to this podcast. I’m convinced that most advisors don’t realize their real value. Do your research. You deserve your true value and going out on your terms. It’s your life’s work. Even if you don’t transition to independence, know your value and options in order to make an educated decision.

      Senior Wealth Advisor, Avidian Wealth Solutions
