Working Every Lead: Systematic Follow-Up for Financial Advisors

In This Episode

You’re running webinars, generating leads, and investing in marketing campaigns, but are you really working every single lead? A lot of advisors tend to focus solely on attendees who show up or immediately raise their hands, while ignoring the majority who registered but didn’t attend or needed more time to decide. That’s leaving significant revenue on the table.

Join host Matt Seitz, Chief Marketing Officer at C2P, as he interviews Cary Chaitoff, Vice President of Marketing and head of C2P’s marketing agency. With over 25 years of experience leading high-performing teams, Cary brings practical insights from working directly with advisors to optimize their lead generation and conversion processes. Together, they break down the exact strategies top-performing advisors use to systematically follow up with leads, track their progress, and convert prospects into clients.

Key Topics Discussed:

  • Working Every Lead: Why no-shows and non-attendees deserve the same attention as people who showed up and how this mindset shift can double your Right Fit Calls.
  • Speed to Lead Matters: The specific window that maximizes conversions and why timely follow-up reflects your future client experience.
  • Crafting Effective Voicemails: How to move beyond “just checking in” to create callbacks that get returned.
  • Multiple Touchpoints Strategy: Understanding the real number of touches it takes to convert leads and why most advisors give up too soon.
  • Tracking Your Funnel: How to identify where your leads are dropping off so you can fix the right problem.
  • Multi-Channel Follow-Up: Practical ways to layer different outreach methods without overwhelming your schedule.
  • Improving Right Fit Call Rates: Using data to diagnose conversion issues and simple presentation adjustments that make a measurable difference.
  • Building Accountability Systems: Creating team structures that ensure consistent follow-up happens even when calendars get busy.
