Hello and welcome to The Magellan Network Show. Today, we're tackling a fundamental question for financial advisors: to niche or not to niche? Whenever a new advisor enters my world, one of the first questions they ask is, “Joe, should I develop a niche?” My answer? It depends. Every advisor’s journey is different, and the right path varies based on their goals and starting point. In this episode, I’ll walk you through the key considerations in making this decision and help you determine the best approach for your practice. I also discussed the following: (06:33) How long does it take to validate a niche? (09:01) How to reverse-engineer a niche for long-term success? (13:07) The advantages of niching (19:08) Why most advisors fail at niching (19:57) The difference between niching and specializing (22:51) What advisors should consider before committing to a niche --- The Magellan Academy & Network The rules and tools for success in the financial services industry are about to change radically. I have spent over 30 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. In most cases, it’s about the coach, their ego, and their money. 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. Your Bottom Line: Here is the deal. I am not going to ask you for a credit card. As I said before, coaching is personality driven. You might not like my style or tactics. So with that in mind here is my offer to you. Complete the short form below. You will receive an email with detailed instructions on how to join the network for the next 14 days. I personally approve each submission so this might take a few hours or a day at the most. I will not ask for compensation of any kind during that 14 days. If after experiencing my work for 30 days you believe that I can help you, here is the deal. To remain in Magellan Network and have access to Magellan Academy, your daily investment in yourself will only be about the price of a Latte these days. One more thing, it’s a month-to-month deal. I’m not going to lock you into anything.

Hi everyone, and welcome to The Magellan Network Show. With Q1 of 2025 coming to a close, I want to dedicate this episode to younger advisors who have been in the business for five years or less. However, even if you’ve been in the industry for decades like me, there’s still value in this discussion. I was recently asked in a podcast interview what it takes to be a successful advisor, and I see it in two ways—what to do and what to avoid. In this episode, I’ll share key insights and common mistakes that can derail your success. I also discussed the following: (05:38) Why advisors focus too much on avoiding failure (09:48) How the next five years create a prime opportunity for advisors (11:33) The importance of embracing discomfort for long-term success (16:00) The key reason salespeople struggle in this industry (20:42) Why time in the office have little impact on your success 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 wrap up Q1 2025, I’ve been having a lot of conversations with my clients about navigating uncertainty. There’s a lot of market noise and news distractions, but this is simply the environment we’re operating in. Today, I want to share some strategies to help you put yourself in the most resourceful state possible. Just like a healthy diet fuels your body, the information you consume and the mindset you cultivate shape how you show up for your clients. In this episode, I also discussed the following: (02:46) The importance of leadership in uncertain times (06:07) The dangers of overloading on news (10:34) How does background noise affect you (11:01) Why advisors need to be mindful of their mental diet (14:08) What to do after cutting back on news 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. I just returned from 12 days in Winter Park, Florida, where we hosted our winter mastermind event for all three of my mastermind groups. Today, I’ll share key insights from our discussions across Empire Mastermind, Empire X, and Elite. In this episode, I dive into the advisor shortage, the growing role of AI, and why firms need to focus on developing in-house talent. I then explore rethinking pricing models to stay profitable and stress the importance of having a solid exit strategy for the future. I also discussed the following: (03:50) The biggest challenge facing the advisory industry (10:32) What advisors need to watch out for in lead gen systems (16:26) Why AI is not necessarily a threat to the industry (18:49) A critical mistake advisors make in their pricing model (21:49) The best time to get your act together and prepare for future growth (25:45) How should advisors train the future generation for success? --- 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. Many financial advisors wonder how to significantly increase their income, often assuming that working harder is the key. But what if the real answer lies elsewhere? In this episode, I sit down with Mark Elzweig, President of Mark Elzweig Company - Executive Recruiters, to explore a different approach to doubling your income. We discuss why simply doing more of the same isn’t always the best strategy and how an experienced coach can provide valuable insights to help you achieve real growth. I also discussed the following: (01:56) How I became a coach to financial advisors (10:48) Why advisors must evolve intentionally (16:21) What’s the major barrier that holds advisors back from success (19:50) The two biggest mistakes advisors make when setting goals (24:48) How the rocking chair test inspires me (32:10) How I define success for an advisor (34:57) The three identities of an advisor (36:38) How most advisors check out of the game (38:24) The one action you should take immediately to start growing your business --- 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! I hope you're all having a great February 2025. Over the past 30+ years of coaching advisors and observing the profession, I’ve often been asked what sets apart those who achieve long-term success from those who struggle or see only short-term wins. One universal factor stands out: the level of investment an advisor makes in their personal and professional development. In this episode, let’s unpack the most powerful return on investment you can make in your career. I’ll also discuss the following: (04:37) The first step to improving your economic results (11:12) What is holding most advisors back from scaling their business (12:47) What is the rocking chair test (16:04) My new rule for how much advisors should invest in themselves (17:52) A key lesson for young advisors --- 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! It’s Valentine's Day 2025, so I’ve decided to talk about why I love referrals and introductions—and so should you! Before we dive in, one thing is clear: no single strategy—referrals, COIs, or seminars—works alone. Most advisors need a mix to drive consistent growth. Today, I will break it all down, share proven strategies, and give you practical steps to make referrals work for you. In this episode, I’ll also discuss the following: (07:21) What are limiting beliefs when it comes to referrals and introductions (08:04) What is relational insecurity? (10:07) Three keys to generating referrals (15:46) What referral gathering is truly about (17:52) A strategy to encourage referrals without being pushy (23:45) How to turn away clients the right way (28:12) Why advisors must be willing to get uncomfortable for major growth 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 I approach my 31st year of coaching advisors, I’m taking a step back from strategies and tactics to explore the bigger picture. Now that we’re past January’s motivation and into the commitment months, I want to reflect on why we do what we do and why I chose to coach advisors. I believe no other profession offers both time freedom and economic abundance like being an advisor. By mastering the game, advisors can build a multi-seven-figure income, take extended time off, and design a sustainable, fulfilling career that prioritizes experiences over traditional retirement. In this episode, I’ll discuss the following: (08:28) Why most advisors get trapped by societal demands (10:31) The concept of lifestyle design practice (13:04) The number one reason why advisors retire (14:34) Why I believe advisors should never have to retire in this game (23:27) The benefits of taking a sabbatical each year ___ 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! January 2025 is ending, and it's time to move from motivation to execution. Advisors started the year with fresh energy and goals, but now comes the real test. Who will stay committed, and who will fall back into old habits? Today, I want to talk about standards. A client once told me this business can be the toughest job or the best job you'll ever run—it all depends on your approach. When aiming for better results, evaluating your "floor" is important, which is another word for standards. In this episode, I’ll discuss the following: (05:19) Why raising the floor is so important (06:25) The different kinds of floor advisors need to raise (12:31) Why I hate being called a motivational speaker (15:12) Two emotional muscles advisors must work on this year (15:55) One of the biggest sabotaging factors in an advisor’s game --- The Magellan Academy & Network The rules and tools for success in the financial services industry are about to change radically. I have spent over 30 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. In most cases, it’s about the coach, their ego, and their money. 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. Your Bottom Line: Here is the deal. I am not going to ask you for a credit card. As I said before, coaching is personality driven. You might not like my style or tactics. So with that in mind here is my offer to you. Complete the short form below. You will receive an email with detailed instructions on how to join the network for the next 14 days. I personally approve each submission so this might take a few hours or a day at the most. I will not ask for compensation of any kind during that 14 days.

Hello and welcome to The Magellan Network Show! As we move through January 2025, I want to discuss why you can’t carry your 2024 identity into your 2025 game or business plan. Too often, we set goals based on our current capabilities, which can be intimidating and lead to a lack of confidence. Because the truth is, the current version of you may not yet have the skills needed to achieve your future goals. In this episode, I discuss the importance of evolving our identity to achieve new results—whether in economics, impact, or growth—by continually working on and improving ourselves. I also discuss the following: (04:40) An exercise you should always practice when setting goals (06:37) The four essential elements to achieving your goals (08:20) How to shift your identity and achieve growth (13:16) How can advisors have a competitive advantage in 2025? (15:11) The key question to ask yourself to unlock higher levels of success The Magellan Academy & Network The rules and tools for success in the financial services industry are about to change radically.
