Your phone just pinged with a new lead—now what? Stop losing potential revenue by waiting. This episode with Terry Blackburn reveals the critical, almost instantaneous action you must take to increase your conversion rate by up to 80%. You will learn the secrets of a repeatable phone process, including how to master six different tonality types to immediately influence the conversation and why speed to the appointment is as crucial as speed to the call. Discover the single closing technique that eliminates objections, ensuring clients book the fact-find immediately. Finally, find out why leaving a descriptive voicemail is one of the biggest mistakes you can make, and the simple, counter-intuitive calling strategy that guarantees a return call because, as Terry asserts, a lead is never truly dead until one specific condition is met.
Terry Blackburn is the founder of The Wealthy Advisor Club, a community and group coaching platform for brokers that has grown to over 692 members in just over eight months. After selling his firm, bespoke, Terry started the club to coach and help more brokers. The club offers three training sessions a week, typically covering lead generation, sales training, and other industry-related topics like mindset, habits, or building a property portfolio.
Terry shared testimonials of clients who have seen significant results after implementing his processes:
Two businesses doubled their revenue within three months, adding hundreds of thousands of pounds to their turnover.
One advisor increased his biggest ever written commission month from £40,000 to over £100,000 as part of the Sesame Network.
The ROI for the paid version of the club ($97 a month) is described as overwhelmingly high.
The Wealthy Advisor Club can be found by searching on Google, LinkedIn, Insta, or Facebook, and is hosted on the SKOOL platform. A free version is available, which provides one training session a week.

Prof. Robert Cialdini author of "Influence" says: " People follow the lead of many others."
Richard Shotton who references Cialdini's work in his book "The Choice Factory" says: "People are deeply influenced by others."
Social proof is a highly effective strategy for businesses. It can even help convince people to do something that they probably don't want to. Like paying their taxes on time.
Getting regular 5-star Google reviews lets people know your business is popular. In the words of Cialdini "it reduces their uncertainty and gets them off the sidelines".
If you want to generate consistent high quality leads then you'll want to start building social proof.
