We are back with another episode of Quantum Growth for Financial advisors with Jon Randall & Jon Kuttin.  This week, we continue our new Multi-Part Educational Classroom Series for Financial Advisors Looking for Quantum Growth within their Practices!

In our first episode we reviewed the beginning of the journey as an advisor to get to 1M of GDC and then explored the “early ensemble” stage to get to 2.5M of production.  Join Jon Randall and Jon Kuttin for our newest 301 Episode focused on Advisors looking to reach our next key hurdle of 5M of production or gross dealer concession within their businesses.

Jon and Jon both go deep into the next level of running your advisory business and outline key considerations and potential roadblocks that many advisors may face in this stage of their careers so they can cut through the noise and focus on what is most important.  We find that this stage is where many advisors get stuck and cannot get through the “ceiling of complexity” that starts to take over at this level of revenue as your practice turns into a true business.

If you are a growing advisor who is in this bracket of 2.5M – 5M of production and looking to start to build a real business – this episode will help you break through the noise and get you on your way to forming a true organizational level business in the financial services space.

Through 100s of coaching and consulting engagements, learn from Jon Randall and Jon Kuttin on what they believe to be the keys to reach this next key milestone in your advisory career and business.
