Mentorship is one of the most valuable things you can receive in your career journey. We all need people who can push us, guide us, and offer perspectives that help us grow. For me, great mentorship has always been about more than just receiving advice; it’s about accountability, support, and self-growth. I’m part of the Arete Syndicate for this exact reason- so that I can be surrounded by other business leaders and hear new ideas and viewpoints that encourage me to drive Elite forward. As leaders, it’s important that we lead while also helping those around us reach their full potential. The lessons I’ve learned from entrepreneurship continue to shape the way I run my business today, and I’m grateful to be in a position where I can pass those lessons on to my team at Elite Marketing Concepts Consulting Partners.

While complacency may feel comfortable, it could be preventing financial advisors from unlocking new opportunities for growth and success. In this week’s episode of Advisor Talk, Elite Consulting Partners CEO Frank LaRosa is joined by Stacey Frank, Executive Vice President of Elite Consulting Partners. Together, they explore the risks of staying at a firm that isn’t fully invested in your growth as an advisor, and what options you have if you find yourself in this situation. Today’s show highlights include: *How complacency creates a cycle that stops your business from advancing. *The hidden dangers of working for a “neutral” firm and how it can limit your success. *A growing trend of firms driving a wedge between financial advisors and their clients. *Why the advisor-client relationship holds more value than the firm-client relationship. Tune in as Frank and Stacey dissect how complacency impacts advisors, their firms, and their clients. They provide meaningful insights on why a firm switch might be the key to sparking your growth and offer practical tips on guiding your clients through this transition. This is a can’t-miss episode for financial advisors who feel stuck and are eager to elevate their business to new heights.

Is your firm actually helping you grow your business? Many advisors will initially develop their business organically through networking, client referrals, or seminars. But the real question is, how is your firm helping you tap into multiple avenues for growth? If your strategy isn’t comprehensive, you might be missing opportunities. At Elite Consulting Partners, we approach advisor growth by looking at 5 Essential Pillars: 1.     Organic- the starting point for most advisor practices. 2.     Recruiting Growth- bringing in other advisors to strengthen and broaden your practice. 3.     Acquisition/Succession Opportunities- leveraging avenues of acquisition and succession to expand. 4.     Marketing- firms without a clear marketing plan grow less than 5% annually in net new assets. 5.     CPA Alliances and Centers of Influence Partnerships- strategic alliances that open doors to new clients and centers of influence. If your firm isn’t supporting these key areas, you may be limiting your potential. Want to have a conversation about maximizing your growth?

Consistency is the quiet force that drives results and turns small actions into major achievements. In business and in life, it’s not about being perfect- it’s about being persistent. The key to growth is to keep moving forward, even on the days you don’t want to. One of my favorite routines is taking an ice bath every morning- it reduces my anxiety and gives me peace so I can stay focused throughout the busy workday. Do you have any habits that have made a difference in your journey?

I’m finally back in Utah for my annual elk hunting trip with Alpha Outfitters! Taking time off to hunt has been a tradition for years- there’s something about being out in the wilderness that clears my mind and gives me the focus I need to reflect on my company. Even during vacation, I’m still thinking about work and how the lessons I learn on this trip can help drive Elite forward when I return home. It’s a chance to step away from my everyday routine and make sure our business is moving in the right direction. Stay tuned for updates on the hunt and how this experience will shape the way I lead when I return. #ElkHunting #Hunting #HuntingSeason #HuntingTrip #Elite #EliteConsultingPartners #WorkHardPlayHard #HuntingLife #FrankLaRosa #AlphaOutfitters

Last night, the Elite team attended a bowling event to do some bonding outside of the office. 🎳 It was great to step away from our normal routines and have fun in a different setting. In a successful company, it’s important to get to know your team on a personal level and do activities that encourage collaboration and support. It’s moments like these that strengthen our culture and foster a positive work environment. #Elite #EliteConsultingPartners #Bowling #TeamBonding #WorkEvent #WorkHardPlayHard #TeamBuilding #WorkCulture #Teamwork #Leadership
