Learn why it changes the game to automates referral onboarding to run 24/7 (get the DIY and DFY ways).
Confusion on how to refer. It's not clear; it's not intuitive.
When a referral comes to mind, questions arise...
It's a mess. They're lost. And you're missing out. Spoiler:
It's Not You, It's the Confusion.
Shift from being a part-time advisor and part-time marketer, to what you do best...Being an outstanding advisor, full-time.
What happens now? It's adding a 24/7 sales team to your staff in 10 minutes sans the $250k/yr. in paychecks, days off, complaining, and hiring pains, while you take better care of your top clients. There is nothing like this.
Strengthening the advisor-client relationship by removing the friction that stops referrals from happening.
Polls show that 90% of clients say they'd refer their advisor, yet only 10% do. What happens if you shift the focus to this 80% sweet spot?
You can boost your referral output by 800% within your current client and advisor relationships.
The average person's Circle of Influence (COI) is now +600, thanks to social media.
This means that your top 20 clients have a COI that is more than 12,000 people.
"Birds of a feather flock together."
You want to clone your top 20% clients, the ones account for roughly 80% of your income? Get more referrals from them.
Questions that arise when a client has someone they know who needs an advisor:
"I don't want to inconvenience my advisor."
"Is my advisor accepting referrals?"
"How can I ensure my referral doesn't get lost?"
"What's the best way to share my advisor's contact info?"
"Should I wait until my next meeting to mention the referral?"
"Can someone who isn't a client ask a question?"
"What's the preferred method to share my advisor's contact info?"
"How can I introduce my referral to my advisor effectively?"
"Will my advisor have time to speak with the referral?"
"Can I share my advisor's email for the referral?"
"Is my advisor open to taking on new clients?"
"Should I share my advisor's calendar URL?"
"Which phone number should I share with the referral?"
Many advisors wonder endlessly why they are not getting referrals. It's not them. The fact is, it's rarely intuitive exactly how to connect referrals and advisors.
"Delays are the death of referrals."
To solve this remove all confusion. Make it simple for clients, other advisors and friends to refer you.
Become referrable.
Have one path and one path only to refer you. When people know the one way to refer you and it's clear, you have removed the questions in #3. You also remove the stress and you put yourself top of mind moving forward.
For the AskMyAdvisor® Method, we have two ways of doing this.
One is DIY (using email) and the other is DFY (using our software).

Overview of the AskMyAdvisor® P³: Premise. Process. Payoff.
What we uncovered about why referrals do not happen. Trusted advisors—accountants, attorneys, consultants, financial advisors, realtors—are missing out on 80% of potential referrals from their best clients. Although 90% of clients say they'd refer their advisor, only 10% actually do. Why? The main obstacles are confusion and delays in the referral process, which pull advisors away from focusing on their top 20% of clients and COIs (Centers of Influence), forcing them to market to strangers with unpredictable outcomes.
How to fix this. The AskMyAdvisor® Method eliminates this referral gap with the Single-Path Referral System™ (SPRS™). SPRS creates one clear, frictionless referral path dedicated exclusively to the top 20% of clients and COIs who generate 80% of your revenue and referrals. This system removes the confusion and delays, making it easy for the 80% to refer and motivates the top 10% to do even more.
Payoff: What becomes possible by doing this?
By streamlining the referral process and concentrating on your top 20% of clients and COIs, you can reclaim valuable time, stop wasting resources marketing to strangers, and significantly increase high-quality referrals. The AskMyAdvisor® Method can increase referral output by up to 800% by unlocking the untapped potential of the 80% and amplifying the impact of the 10%.
This results in a more efficient, predictable, and profitable business model—the AskMyAdvisor® Way.
About your client and advisor relationships on referrals, reach, and your vital few (top 20%). Knowing and putting this data to work changes the game.

Our 6-step RECHARGE Growth System creates an ongoing path to recurring referrals and client discovery. The 6-step formula, which consists of Relaying, Responding, Reminding, Repeating, Reaping, and Revitalizing, strengthens top client relationships, maintains ongoing engagement, and enhanced referral growth, all in an automated, round-the-clock model driven by the AskMyAdvisor® OS.
The AskMyAdvisor® Method and OS offer a unique approach to client-building, starkly contrasting traditional methods that are focused primarily on marketing to strangers via networking, digital marketing, social media, content marketing, free consultations, community participation, direct mail campaigns, etc.
Instead of indiscriminately seeking growth through strangers, AskMyAdvisor® has advisors flip the switch, focusing exclusively on their top 20% clients and the reach to 1,000s in the COI of these clients.
Our approach fosters growth from within by deeply engaging with these top-tier clients and their Circle of Influence (COI). This eliminates the need for external marketing or direct referral requests, yet it still stimulates growth.
This key clientele is offered a premium, "Black Card"-equivalent service, exclusively available to them and their COI only.
As we work to revolutionize the way established advisors expand their client base moving forward, this groundbreaking approach distinguishes AskMyAdvisor® from all other methods.
