Reframe "wealth management" to achieve sustainable success in financial services
You've Been Framed™ is a step-by-step guide for achieving ultimate profitability and sustainability for your financial advisory firm. Whether you're a savvy entrepreneur ready to dominate your competitors, or a more experienced advisor moving toward selling your practice, this guide will help you proactively reframe your business. You'll learn how to grow your pipeline of prospects, win the next generation of clients, and deepen your business so it can thrive without you—leaving you free to pursue what matters to you. Build your business on a holistic foundation of wealth management and assemble the team that will take you to the top as you develop a whole new perspective from which to offer your services. Transform your role from "directive advisor" to "trusted advocate." Completely shift the paradigm, and make yourself the de facto solution to your clients' wealth management issues.
Whether it's the firm with which you're affiliated or the types of products and services you offer, you've been "framed." As a wealth management advisor, your clients have little understanding of what you do or why you do it. Even your team may have the wrong idea. This book helps you clarify and demonstrate the value of your knowledge and skills, so you can frame your work on your own terms.
If you haven't effectively led discussions to co-create what your business stands for—and what differentiates it from competitors—you're losing talent, prospects, and business. You've Been Framed™ gives you the perspective you need to thrive in the new financial environment, and achieve sustainable success.

Praise for YOU'VE BEEN FRAMED "Today's wealth advisory market is a dichotomy of challenge and opportunity. While wealthy American families have a greater need now than ever before for financial advice, they are also more empowered than ever to judge the quality of their advisor, and they have more options than ever before to replace someone not meeting their needs. In this context, Sclafani's thesis in You've Been Framed provides vital groundwork and insight for aspiring advisors in any channel to better define--and deliver upon--their value proposition for clients. The ideas in this book are actionable, astute, and incredibly useful. Bravo!" --Sterling Shea, Managing Director, Head of Advisory Programs, Barron's "Who's more important to an advisory firm's growth: clients or staff?
