Everyone is talking about inflation, interest rates, supply chain deficits, stock market volatility…and now, war in Ukraine.
Needless to say, many folks are a bit worried.
Whether it’s reaching out to existing clientele or prospects, now is your time to shine as an expert.
Ideas:
- Write a short memo to all clients with your perspective of what’s going on.
- Advice: Don’t use a pre-written compliance approved back-office email. People just delete those.
- Pick up the phone and call clients. Reach out with empathy and reassurance. Ask how they are doing. This lets them know you care; and it goes a long way in and of itself. Picking up the phone and reaching out shows your confidence as their financial leader.
- Write a temperature check email to your prospects:

- Here’s an example I wrote. Feel free to use this and make it your own. Remember to add your personal touch as well as your disclosures.
