Close Over 80% of Prospective Clients
- - at the Very First Meeting!

A key component of getting more prospects who meet with you to engage you is in the steps leading up to the initial meeting and how you orchestrate that initial meeting (check out our program entitled, “Properly Orchestrate the Initial Meeting”).  However, knowing how to handle client objections is another skill required to get more people to move forward.  Through thousands of client meetings, we have seen just about every single objection to moving forward there is!

Whether you’re closing 80% of the people who meet with you or not, there is still room for improvement to get more prospects to convert to paying clients.  You can skip that painful learning process and find out how from an expert.  This is why nationally renowned estate planning attorney and Ultimate Estate Planner President, Philip J. Kavesh, J.D., LL.M. (Taxation), CFP®, ChFC, California State Bar Certified Specialist in Estate Planning, Trust & Probate Law has put together this practical presentation entitled, “Advanced Initial Meeting Closing Tips” to help you!

In this 93-minute presentation, you will learn:

  • How and when to use the “technical” close versus the “emotional” close
  • How to flush out the time waster, do-it-yourselfer and engineer type - - and turn them into an obedient client!
  • How to throw in an irresistible incentive so the client will decide to do business right now!
  • How to use the “silent pause” to incredible effect!
  • Word-for-word “scripts” to overcome specific objections like:
    • “We just came to gather information.”
    • “We want to think about it.”
    • “I need to talk with my _______ first.”
    • “We’re shopping around and comparing.”
    • “I think I can get it done for less.” (which they may be thinking, even if they haven’t come right out and said it!)
  • If you still haven’t closed the client, how to properly and successfully use the ultimate weapons - - the “Columbo gambit”, the “Takeaway” and the “Nucular Bomb”!
  • The one thing to be sure to give every prospect who leaves your office saying “no” - - that will often lead to a “YES”!
  • The 2 simple contacts with “no-closes” after the meeting that will turn them into clients!
  • And much, much more!

Your purchase includes an instantly downloadable video and audio recording, along with PDF handout materials. A PDF transcript is available as an add-on for an additional fee.

Even if you marginally improve your close rate, and engage one or two more clients per month,
you can significantly increase your bottom line over the course of a year!
