Being an expert doesn’t automatically make you a great communicator. In fact, sometimes knowing more makes communicating clearly even harder.
In this episode of From Busy to Rich, Wes and Justin sit down with communication expert Chris Fenning to explore why advisors often lose clients in the details. They discuss how expert language creates confusion, why overexplaining can lead to “I need to think about it,” and how asking better questions, listening longer, and focusing on outcomes can completely change a client conversation.
In This Episode:
- Why expertise can make it harder—not easier—to communicate simply.
- How to recognize when you’re giving clients more information than they actually need.
- Why advisors should spend less time explaining how something works and more time explaining what it does for the client.
- How asking better questions and becoming comfortable with silence creates more meaningful conversations.
- Why the language advisors assume clients understand may be creating more confusion than they realize.
