Maybe they are afraid of financial advisers. I have never had that experience but then I don't even tell people what I do unless asked and then I say as little as possible. I do think people don't want to meet with commission sales people. To much like dealing with a car salesman.
I believe the key is how they are introduced to you. First thing I think is get a 65 next is become an educator. I never sell,only educate and completely disclose how I am compensated etc.
January class had 21 buying units pay $25 each to attend. 18 showed,33 total students, class less than 3 hours, 15 requested appointments. have seen 11 so far, 9 engaged me for a financial plan, other 2 want to think about it. Normally this means 1 of the 2 will engage me. The poorest person of the 11 has over $700,000 in investable assets
