In this episode, we delve into the art of delivering business advisory services through six distinct mechanisms, each serving as a unique channel to share your expertise and connect with clients on a deeper level.
Key Takeaways:
- Understanding Purchase Motivations: Unlike compliance services, advisory services are sought after by clients based on desire, not necessity. This fundamental difference plays a critical role in how you position and sell your advisory services.
- The Emotional Guidance Scale: Highlighting the contrast between negative emotions associated with 'needing' compliance services and the positive, forward-looking emotions tied to 'wanting' advisory services, understanding this emotional landscape is key to effective service delivery.
- The Six Delivery Mechanisms Explained:
- Speaker - Amplify your message to a broader audience, establishing credibility and influence.
- Author - Cement your authority and expertise by documenting your knowledge, whether through traditional publishing or digital platforms.
- Advisor - Utilize personal experience to provide insights and guidance, fostering client growth and honing your expertise.
- Coach - Master the art of questioning to elevate clients' thinking and help them discover their own solutions.
- Facilitator - Guide group discussions to generate collective solutions, without imposing your own views.
- Trainer - Educate and empower clients with the skills they need to achieve success, using your signature system to guide them.
- Choosing Your Mechanism: There's no one-size-fits-all approach to delivering advisory services. Your choice should align with your strengths, your clients' needs, and the nature of your advisory offer. Mixing and matching these mechanisms can create a more dynamic and effective advisory practice.
- Building Your Practice: Whether you're just starting out or looking to expand your services, embracing these mechanisms can transform how you deliver value to your clients, helping you build a thriving advisory practice.
