Not everyone has had a career in sales, so suddenly reaching out to new people to talk about a new role and company can be intimidating. But we're not here to 'hard sell' anyone.
The goal is not to convince people that they need the services we can deliver, but rather, to identify those who are already looking for the services we provide.
One of the biggest mistakes new advisors make is overcomplicating outreach.
You do not need:
Perfect messaging
A polished pitch deck
A complex sales process
Aggressive outbound tactics
You simply need to start conversations with people who already know, trust, or recognize your experience.
This outreach framework is designed to help advisors:
Reconnect naturally
Start meaningful conversations
Identify potential opportunities
Build momentum quickly
The goal is not to “sell” in the first message.
The goal is to:
Create engagement
Rebuild connection
Understand priorities and challenges
Explore whether there may be a fit to continue the conversation
The strongest outreach feels:
Human
Low pressure
Conversational
Relevant
Curious
Not scripted or transactional.
How to Use These Scripts
These scripts are not meant to be copied word-for-word forever.
They are designed to:
Give you structure
Reduce overthinking
Help you get moving quickly
Create a repeatable outreach rhythm
As you gain confidence, personalize the language to sound more natural to you.
Focus on:
Keeping messages short
Avoiding early pitching
Asking simple questions
Starting dialogue instead of selling
The advisors who gain traction fastest are usually the ones who consistently start conversations and follow up.
Recommended Starting Point
Start with:
Former colleagues
Existing relationships
Past clients
Professional connections
Referral sources
Warm relationships almost always outperform cold outreach early on.
