THE FINNOVATOR

With the year it's been, it's time for something a little different, and something which I feel has the potential to really enhance your value proposition.I've asked Allan Gray's Julian Morrison & Chris Hestelow to join us and take a case-study-rich dive into the world of behavioural economics, exploring the science of decision-making and how to leverage this fascinating body of knowledge to help clients make smarter decisions.

Launching any sort of hub isn't just about the technology.
 
The success of what you do will be defined by how well it's adopted both by your clients and importantly how you use it as a business to engage with clients.

Websites are something people can have a bit of a love-hate relationship with.There's always the question of:- what do you put in it,- which platforms you use,- how do you get the copyrightand all those other questions that can leave you stalled.That's my aim to answer all of them at this webinar.I'll be showing you the one thing that you must have on your website. Otherwise, it's really no point having it. The flow and formula to getting your content and copy correctly. And I'll be answering a bunch of questions from:- what plugins to use- what platform, and- how much you should really be spending.I ran this webinar because websites are just one of the things that you can't get away with not having any more but not having a good one can be just as difficult.

I’ve decided to take the Podcast in a new directionThey’ll still be the same interviews with amazing people we’ve done since 2020, but I’ve decided I want to share what I’ve been developing as a coach in terms of training content more widely.If you like where we’re heading - and I hope you do - I’d love it if you could do me a favour and leave a review of the podcast along with a comment about your experience listening to The Finnovator and who you’d advise to listen to it.

There are some presenters you will always stay until the very last session of a conference to see, and Stephen Prendeville is one of those people.  To present Stephen as someone who helps practice owners buy or sell businesses is to explain only a fraction of what makes him such a fountain of insight.
 
His career started in banking then stockbroking in the 1980s, before he became Australia's youngest certified investment planner in '87. He's headed up a dealer group, then funds management.  Finally, after a stop along the way at Deloitte's, he started down the path that he's perhaps best known for today, eventuating in the founding of Forte Asset Solutions and 16 years facilitating the sale of over 150 FP businesses in Australia.  
 
In truth, what makes Stephen such a fascinating person to be able to speak with is the clarity with which he's able to see the true path the industry is on and, often by drawing upon key data, outline with apparent ease what the future holds for those who want it, and what to avoid.  
 
I'm delighted to be able to spend an hour diving into all things value, the future and, of course, the lessons learned in his own epic journey to date.

In this episode of The Finnovator, Stewart delves into the topic of AI tools, specifically Chat GPT, which he has been experimenting with for a few months.
 
He discusses the value of AI tools in completing simple tasks and calculations and provides insights into how Chat GPT can streamline research and simplify complex topics.
 
Stewart breaks down the three components of work and suggests that ChatGPT can quickly and accurately complete the middle 80% of the work, allowing individuals to focus on the more important aspects of their work. He also shares his insights on the limitations of AI tools and the implementation time cycle's potential environmental impact.
 
Tune in to this episode to learn more about the pros and cons of using AI tools in your work.

Stories of advisers who "scratched their own itch" and ended up building tech solutions that offer something for other businesses too always interest me, which is why I wanted to sit down and explore Martin Morris's.
 
Being an adviser and founder of My Financial Mentors is just one hat Martin has chosen to wear. More recently, he's taken a tool that was once part of his own advice process and turned it into a "hub" solution for advisers wanting to centralise multiple engagement functions in one, secure portal - called Engagement Hub - as well as finding himself in demand in the coaching space for advisers in South Africa wanting to adopt more of the methodology behind it.
 
For all the output at the end of it, it's the journey behind it that I think has all sorts of lessons to impart about how advice firms
can build their own tech,
believing in your own methodology and
all the many inputs and insights along the way that have led to the solution.
 
If you're looking for a bit of end-of-year inspiration about what's possible when it comes to creating your own tools and tech solutions, join myself and Martin for this one.

Some time ago, I drew a picture for a friend of mine outlining the four pillars that contribute to practice success. It might not surprise you to learn that one of those pillars was licensing.
 
In this Finnovation Masterclass, I'll be joined by someone I know very well to have a conversation that I've never had before.
 
Rachel Bell is a Sydney-based PDM/ Business Coach with Affinia, who brings to the table a wide range of experience as an adviser, BDM, PDM, and a bunch of other roles in the industry that give her a uniquely wide perspective many others don't have.
 
In this session:
we'll dive deep into the evolution of the licensee relationship as it relates to your business success.
we'll pinpoint the kind of businesses that are best suited to using third-party licensing and how certain firms are able to craft a supportive and successful relationship with licensees where others simply aren't or don't
we'll also explore some of the "behind-the-scenes" aspects of providing the services practices like yours rely on, and talk at length about the potential future of licensing that are playing out as we speak.
 
Join us for what promises to be a detailed look at the cutting edge of the role licensees do play in the current shifting industry landscape and where that may head in the coming years.

We've had the opportunity to see many different types of advice models down the years as part of this podcast, but even now after all these years it still impresses me when practitioners make a way of operating truly theirs.
 
In this Finnovation Masterclass, you're invited to tune in as myself and Sacha Burchgart explore what it is about her practice Burcheart Financial that has seen her consistently grow her practice with great clients despite no formal marketing.
 
At the core of it lies a methodology that uses cash flow analysis and scenario modeling to drive changes in client behaviour and decision-making at a day-to-day level. If this sounds like cashflow coaching, be assured it absolutely isn't, and we'll dive into how and where it differs (and why it works where the former often doesn't).
 
We'll also cover how:
she's made the delivery of a Strategy Paper an in-demand advice offering in its own right
she's seeking to evolve what's developed into a high-touch service model into her next phase of growth.
 
This will prove to be a very insightful journey into a business model that we're likely to see much more of in the future.
