How Financial Advisors Can Set Better Goals (With Mando Sallavanti)

Without improving your goal-setting skills, you'll forever be destined to live life as a mediocre financial advisor at best. Sure, maybe your mediocrity ensures you never have to worry about your bills, but it's also the kryptonite to living a luxurious lifestyle, where you can enjoy the true beauty life has to offer. Well, I have good news on that front: In today's episode, Mando Sallavanti, a young advisor who's already enjoyed more success and wealth than most financial advisors ever enjoy, joins me. He reveals how he set goals that took him from making $360 in three months to building a six-figure advising business. And you know what? It's probably much simpler than you're currently making it. Listen now.
