What this episode covers
Financial advisors, are you stuck managing a “book of business” instead of building a real business? In this episode of Advisor Talk, Frank LaRosa is joined by Duncan MacPherson, Founder & CEO of Pareto Systems, to unpack how the Pareto Principle (80/20 Rule) and the Blue Square Method can help advisors elevate client experience, increase enterprise value, and embrace the future with confidence. From resetting relationships during a transition, to strengthening fee worthiness, to understanding how AI will liberate - not replace - advisors, this conversation provides the playbook for breaking plateaus and building long-term sustainability.
