Gaining Client and Prospect Attention in the Virtual World

About the Session

This session has been rebadged to reflect content more accurately. Research into ‘virtual selling’ shows that gaining client attention and maintaining engagement is the biggest challenge to ‘sellers’ with 91% reporting this to be somewhat or significantly challenging. We explore the shifting buyer-seller [adviser-client] dynamic of recent years, how new, complex, and risky environments present opportunities to engage with prospects and clients, and the tools to grasp the opportunities.
