This program has been designed for you to watch three videos and to complete three exercises each week for two consecutive weeks.

During the LIVE coaching sessions, you’ll have the opportunity to discuss any additional questions about the videos or exercises you have completed during the previous two weeks.

Blake Linklater – :
For any advisors, this is a great program. I’m about 70% of the way done, and my business has been simplified and I am in the process of making it more systematic. Furthermore, as a result of this program and stuff I’ve learned it has helped me open 4 new accounts, build trust faster and be more authentic.
Dan Long – :
I took the most recent Don Connelly 12 week live course. Had a great experience, Don is the master of story telling and he makes it very simple to understand. We had a smaller group making it very easy to have some dialogue and give everyone personal feedback. I would recommend for advisors at any level to master the basics.
