“It Was Only a Matter Of Weeks Before I Noticed Measurable Change As a Result Of David’s Insight And Advice!”

“We had built an excellent IFA practice – profitable; technically highly competent; loyal, well-serviced clients; a healthy stream of predictable, sustainable revenue.
What more could we ask for?
Yet I wanted to build more than a ‘practice’:
I wanted to create a Business which would be a model of excellence, in the eyes of clients, our team and other Advisers.
So I sought help from business coach David J Scarlett.
It was only a matter of weeks before I noticed measurable change as a result of David’s insight and advice.
Our work together has translated into a vastly stronger business. Our clients, and other advisers, are so impressed that our reputation has helped attract even more quality clients and additional team members.
With David’s coaching, I’ve stepped up from being a Financial Adviser to becoming a Business Leader.”

“100% Increase In Revenue. 1,000% Increase In Confidence!”

“18 months ago - before I attended my first Adviser Gym workshop - I had reached a point of exhaustion, feeling consumed by my business… and frustrated that clients wouldn’t pay the fees  we felt we deserved.
Now, I’ve doubled my revenue…  and I’m regularly turning away any new clients with less than £1 million to invest!
What’s more,  I’ve released time to enjoy life again!”
Nigel Barker-Smith
“One of The Biggest Influences On My Life!”

“David has been one of the biggest influences on my life, by far!
Our cashflow is more predictable and secure. Our future is more sustainable.  Our local position more dominant.
And we’re making a profound difference in our clients’ lives!”
Simon Holdsworth
“In 15 Months, Recurrent Revenue Shot From 10% to 50% of My Income!”

“David’s insight and astute analysis of my business helped to drive a massive increase in my predictable revenue… very quickly.
Basically, he helped me to refocus my energy and expertise… improve client relationships… and deliver more of what clients really want!”
Nicola Downs
“166% Increase In Recurrent, Predictable Revenue. And A Better Life!”

“It would be easy to point to the financial impact David has had on our business. But that’s not the real story!
The way clients are magnetised by our ethos and culture… my growing ability as a business leader… the quality of internal systems and processes… a better support team… improved clarity of service and communication…
They’re all down to the work I’ve done within The Adviser Gym
Kathryn Blake
I have to say: business and life is good… and the future looks bright!”

“If I were to summarise the important changes in my life as a result of being part of the Adviser Gym Inner Circle, they’d be captured by 3 words:
  • Freedom
  • Clarity
  • Confidence
By Freedom I mean that I’ve now freed up an extra 8 hours per week for my personal life… whilst hitting my revenue targets in a difficult climate.
As you can imagine… I’m so excited about that!
By Clarity I mean that the Marketing and Business Strategies I’ve learned have helped me to:
  • Be very clear and focused about the type of client I’m dealing with:
    • I’ve chosen to work with women who are going through probate after the death of partners or parents. And I’m really enjoying it.
  • Develop a clear and succinct way of articulating my expertise to firms of solicitors, who now trust me and ask me to advise their clients
  • And develop a simple, crystal clear, consistent fee structure.
    • Clients love it. And I love it!
Finally, my confidence has increased enormously during these past 18 months
  • I have my coach at hand, should I need a sounding board or guidance
  • I have more direction and purpose
