Producers grossing under $350K represent a huge, unrealized potential. We employ our How-To, Want-To, Chance-To Performance Evaluation Model to demonstrate to them how to do the job more efficiently. The Progress Center will help them resolve want-to issues by motivating them to move forward and trying new things. And, we'll help them identify success roadblocks in our chance-to discussions. In this program, The Progress Center provides the tools and skill sets that the financial professional needs to move to the next level, confidently and competently.
Skill Sets for Producers Under $350K
| 1. | While people in this group have already demonstrated a basic level of proficiency, there is much, much more to learn. In order to assist clients to identify, define, and achieve their financial goals, the financial professional must have advanced skills. The courses in this program help participants develop sophisticated communication skills and teach the financial professional how to be consistently effective.
Learning to become more consistently effective is one of the pleasurable challenges that help these producers move to the next levels of achievement. They start using polished tools, rather than broken, worn-out ones. |  |
 | 2. | Producers below $350K must implement business skills that will allow them to move forward in their practices. Without these skills, they are relegated to perpetual mediocrity. The skills, topics, and modules of this program will help them create the right practices to become top producers. |
| 3. | In general, $350K producers know the major products and services of their firms. Sometimes "knowledge fosters complacency." We offer cost-effective alternatives to in-house personnel, and we can deliver courses that firms may not be able to provide. |  |
 |
4. | The modules in this section draw upon case studies, self-diagnosis, and multi-level approaches to goal setting as proven ways to help propel the $350K producer forward and out of a lackluster rut. Our instructors can be contacted to conduct one-on-one or small group coaching sessions on the phone or on the web. |
