Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

370: Never Lose A Customer Again - Author Joey Coleman is Here!
Q: What does client experience really mean and what does an exceptional first 100 days look like?
Client experience is the umbrella for every touchpoint, from contracts to the timing of gifts; an exceptional first 100 days includes clear onboarding, consistent communication, and thoughtful, personalized interactions that set expectations and build trust from day one.
368: The Onboarding Upgrade That Created Massive ROI with Aaron Schmerling
Q: Why is it important to involve the whole team in the onboarding training?
Because it ensures buy-in, accelerates implementation, and makes the process more efficient overall. When the entire team understands and participates, tasks are executed faster and clients see a more seamless experience.
368: The Onboarding Upgrade That Created Massive ROI with Aaron Schmerling
Q: What specific changes did you implement that made you come back to do the full course?
I implemented the restaurant analogy and began applying the onboarding framework to standardize information gathering, team roles, and a shared vision, which showed measurable improvement in client experience and time efficiency, prompting us to pursue full course adoption.
368: The Onboarding Upgrade That Created Massive ROI with Aaron Schmerling
Q: Had you ever thought about onboarding as an area to elevate before Libby introduced the concept?
I hadn't given it much thought; my attention was on virtual whiteboarding and trimesterly reviews, not a full onboarding focus. The onboarding concept clicked when I saw its potential to improve efficiency and client experience, especially with the idea of a two-lens approach.
366: Delegation in Real Life - What It Looks Like Day-to-Day
Q: How quickly can an advisor expect to have a functioning assistant in place?
Belay can typically move to a working arrangement within about two weeks after kickoff, focusing on rapid matching and onboarding, with ongoing coaching and transitions if the fit isn't perfect, aiming to minimize downtime and maximize time savings for the advisor.
