In this episode, I break down how my team helped a CFO firm attract higher-level clients—specifically seven- and eight-figure business owners—with a marketing funnel built for premium offers. I talk through why traditional pain-point marketing doesn’t resonate with wealthy prospects and how shifting the message toward their big-picture goals makes a major difference. I also share why making it easy for them to vet you is crucial, and how simplifying the process helps avoid losing serious leads. This is what’s working right now if you're aiming to serve an affluent audience.
