Attracting the Affluent

shaking of several hands

Whatever your unique communication strength is—writing, speaking or appearing on camera—there’s a media opportunity that can help you exploit it and reach affluent customers.

Author Derrick Kinney then goes one step farther and joins us on our podcast: “How to Attract and Retain Affluent Clients.” He shows you how to:

  • position yourself as an income-retirement specialist
  • prospect using
    “situational” referrals
  • use a carve-out strategy
    to “recreate” the paycheck

Plus he offers scripts you can use to connect with affluent clients in a way they can relate to.
