Hi everyone and welcome to The Magellan Network Show. This episode might be a little different from the usual. I’ll be sharing insights on what it really takes to double your income as a financial advisor—and here’s a hint: it’s probably not what you’d expect. I recently met an advisor with a $5 million practice who wants to grow it to $10 million in five years. When I asked how he'd get there, he focused on systems and organization. I told him the real challenge is his belief that he can reach $10 million without changing himself—that mindset is holding him back. In this episode, I discussed the following: (05:24) Why systems don’t work for some advisors (07:34) Why advisors should embrace a business owner or entrepreneur identity (08:50) What truly sabotages an advisor’s growth (13:44) What it takes to scale and get to the next level (15:28) How to unlock real growth as an advisor — Join us for the 2025 Magellan Vision 10X Masterclass from November 20-22, 2024—a transformative three-day live stream and masterclass!

Hello and welcome to The Magellan Network Show. It’s the start of November! As we prep for the upcoming Magellan Vision Process, I want to discuss tracking key metrics or KPIs. There’s a saying: “What gets measured matters.” Yet surprisingly, 80–90% of advisors don’t fully understand their essential business metrics. Why don’t more advisors track what matters? Often, it’s because they don’t see the importance, lack a reliable system, or rely too heavily on reports from their firms. In this episode, I discussed the following: (03:37) The two types of metrics (07:34) How focusing on the right data can double your results (10:50) Why ignoring profitability can be a costly mistake for advisors (12:24) The numbers that advisors need to know about their business (13:30) The importance of knowing where your opportunity flow comes from — It’s that time of year!

Hi everyone and welcome to The Magellan Network Show. This week, I want to share a conversation with a successful advisor who someone referred to me. Despite his financial success, our discussion revealed a common issue in our industry: advisors often neglect their own growth and planning. It reminded me of the saying, "The cobbler's children have no shoes." While advisors excel at helping others, they can overlook their own needs, making our industry feel like the neglected stepchild. In this episode, I discussed the following: (06.35) Why advisors must have their own financial plan (09:31) Why do some prospects pause before committing (12:06) Why most advisors struggle to grow their game (13:23) How to overcome imposter syndrome and eliminate incongruencies (14:26) What advisors need to do to start 2025 with power and integrity --- The Magellan Academy & Network The rules and tools for success in the financial services industry are about to change radically.

Hi everyone and welcome to The Magellan Network Show. I’m here in Deer Valley, Utah, hosting three live mastermind groups for the next two weeks. Today, I'll explain why every financial advisor should join a mastermind group or create one on their own locally. Mastermind groups have been a pivotal part of my life since the early 90s, starting with Tony Robbins' Power Teams. I spent two transformative years in a mastermind group with seasoned professionals, gaining wisdom and mentorship that shaped my career more than any formal education. In this episode, I discussed the following: (03:43) Why masterminds have been such a big part of my life (06:39) The two types of mastermind groups (09:19) The benefits of establishing a local group (18:27) The challenges of having a virtual group (20:51) The key advantages of a paid/investment-oriented group --- The Magellan Academy & Network The rules and tools for success in the financial services industry are about to change radically.

Hello and welcome to The Magellan Network Show! Today’s episode is another special one, featuring an online webinar I did for Social Advisors with Charlie Van Derven. In it, I discuss why financial advisors should stop relying on buying leads and instead focus on referrals and introductions to attract more clients. Many advisors rely too heavily on lead generation, missing the opportunity to build stronger, authentic connections through referrals and introductions. As an industry, we've failed to communicate our value effectively, leading people to seek help from unknown sources instead of trusted advisors. In this episode, Charlie and I discussed the following: (02:30) Why clients turn to the Internet instead of trusted advisors (06:59) Why advisors think it’s a good idea to buy leads (11:46) How to reframe client conversations for stronger referral opportunities (13:08) The three key elements to elevate your referral strategy (13:58) Why the next 60 months are crucial (24:14) The least effective COI for advisor referrals and introductions (27:13) Why the industry needs to rethink the concept of a COI (36:23) The best response when asked about your business (37:44) Two important considerations for warm market conversations (40:53) The most efficient and effective way to get more clients (43:16) How long must an advisor follow up on a prospect --- The Magellan Academy & Network The rules and tools for success in the financial services industry are about to change radically.

Hello everyone and welcome to The Magellan Network Show. As we step into September, I’d like to talk about the financial advisors' growth game—not just the mechanics of growing the business, but the mindset and psychology behind it. In my 30 years as a coach, I've noticed a few key differences between advisors who accelerate their growth and those who struggle. Interestingly, it's not about intelligence or organization; it's all about the approach. In this episode, I discussed the following: (04:42) The two types of advisors in the first five years (09:32) An advice to younger advisors (12:09) One of the hardest things to do as a business owner (14:44) Three reasons not to wait until the last minute to hire an assistant (17:09) The best place to look for talent --- The Magellan Academy & Network The rules and tools for success in the financial services industry are about to change radically.

Hello and welcome to The Magellan Network Show. As we approach the end of August 2024, just a week from Labor Day, let's discuss what you can do as a financial advisor if you're feeling behind, lacking momentum, or stuck in a rut. Life is full of patterns—emotional and behavioral. When they align, everything flows, and we feel abundant. But when they shift, it can feel like pushing a car uphill with a flat tire, which is no fun at all. In this episode, I shared some strategies to help advisors break out of a slump and discussed the importance of taking responsibility and massive action to achieve your goals. I also discussed the following: (06:13) How you get out of the survival mindset trap (09:52) The dangers of being comfortable (13:24) How massive action cures all slumps (15:28) Why does your mind create obstacles when you fear taking action (16:49) The choice that advisors have to make if they're falling behind the curve --- The Magellan Academy & Network The rules and tools for success in the financial services industry are about to change radically. I have spent over 25 years coaching only financial advisors. In that time, I have personally conducted over 50,000 individual coaching sessions. I have built a profound knowledge base of what it takes to achieve lifelong success in business and life. In my career, I have transformed 1,000’s of advisors (below are videos and written testimonials by many of them). Many of you probably paid thousands of dollars to various coaching programs with very mixed results. Most coaching programs are just that. A pre-planned process that is “cookie cutter”. Where they have salespeople having to “sell” you on their program and results. They base their program on “practice management” or “marketing”. They make you more intelligent. What they all fail to do is help you make that “mindset” shift that must happen for you to realize your dreams and vision. I am going to coach you, teach you, inspire you, and train you all on your mobile device every business day. You are going to get better at business development, practice management, personal development, and your vision. Here is what you are going to get from me each month: - A 5-10 minute morning coach video each business day. - 3 training videos of 20-30 minutes each. This will be a deep dive into the four areas I mentioned above. - A live group coaching session where you and I can interact and work together. Here is what you can do each month: - Post a question to me and I will answer it. - Collaborate and associate with like-minded advisors. - Invite other great advisors into the network.

Hi everyone, and welcome to The Magellan Network Show. Today’s episode is special because we have a guest joining us—Carmine Corino. Carmine is a personal client and a member of the Magellan Empire Group. We're here to discuss his new book, Broken Dealer: Navigating the Path to Financial Advisor Independence, which he co-authored with another client of mine, Daren Blonski. Many financial advisors feel pressure from their companies to sell products that clients may not need. They dream of breaking free and becoming independent but often lack the drive, plan, or courage to take the leap In this episode, Carmine and I discuss the transition to independence from traditional wirehouse and insurance structures. We also touch on the challenges of leaving a secure job, navigating legal battles, and the personal growth that comes with staying true to one's values. We also discussed the following: (11:31) How Carmine decided to rethink his path in the financial industry (14:15) The power of detachment (23:33) An advisor’s biggest fear in becoming independent (29:50) Carmine’s reason for writing this book {33.11) The two toughest decisions in this game (37:55) The top 5 takeaways from the book (45:11) The sign that defines Camine’s commitment to his clients To get a copy of the book - Broken Dealer: Navigating the Path to Financial Advisor Independence by Carmine Corino and Daren Blonski, you can go to: AMAZON https://www.amazon.com/stores/Carmine-Corino/author/B0D71H9PHG?ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true BARNES & NOBLE https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/broken-dealer-carmine-corino/1145711279?ean=9781642256543 --- The Magellan Academy & Network The rules and tools for success in the financial services industry are about to change radically.
