The problem

You cannot advise one client and answer calls from another

When you're sitting across the table discussing a client's KiwiSaver strategy or retirement income plan, you cannot stop to answer the phone. But the couple who just sold their business, or the professional wanting to sort out their KiwiSaver provider, is calling now. They are not leaving a voicemail about their life savings. They are calling the next adviser on the list.

  • 65% of people seeking financial advice won't leave a voicemail
  • Prospective clients call 2-3 advisers and go with whoever answers first
  • That adds up to 2-4 lost clients per month
  • A full-time receptionist costs NZ$4,000+/month just to answer the phone
