Which areas of the Financial Planning process do you really enjoy? What if you could eliminate the areas of Financial Planning you don’t like, and focus on the ones you enjoy most? Well, that’s exactly what Amie Baker (LinkedIn: /amie-baker-10975828) of Rekab Advice (https://www.rekabadvice.com.au) did.

Amie realised being her client’s active investment manager was not how she could provide the most value, so she made a conscious decision to outsource all areas of FP she doesn’t enjoy, to focus on what she does best - helping her client’s articulate what they want out of life and tailoring a financial plan to help them get there.

This is a great episode for anyone who wants an insight into what one successful adviser is doing in her business.

Episode highlights:

12:30 – How has your life experiences helped you as a Financial Advisor?

18:41 – The elements of Financial Planning Amie has outsourced and why

22:50 – What did you do to get better at behavioural finance?

It seems most Financial Advisors are no longer of the mindset that Fintech is going to replace them, but rather complement them and their value proposition for clients.

So if this is the case, surely the question then has to be - how can Advisors leverage the power of Fintech in a post royal commission world?

Chris Ridd (LinkedIn: /chrisridd) has an impressive career history in tech. After working at Microsoft for 15 years, he then took on the role of CEO at Xero and led the growth of the company from a handful of employees to over 300. Now, he is part of the executive team at myprosperity (https://www.myprosperity.com.au) and believes the key for an advisor to not just exist, but to flourish in a post RC world, is to first help their clients feel like they’re in control.

In this episode you’ll learn:

4:22 – The three elements Chris looks for in a sound startup.

12:44 – What’s the key for an advisor to not just exist, but to flourish in the next 5- 10 years?

31:00 – How to be an effective leader and drive a great company culture

35:10 – Why leaders DON’T need to know everything, and the importance of authenticity

39:17 – What is the best thing advisors can do to grow their business?
