Mark Little (Independent Speaker - Not an employee of BAI)

Mark Little is a Trusted Advisor in every sense of the term.  He also is the first Trusted Advisor to reach the elite status of Being Done™. However, at one point in his career, he was ready to leave the Financial Services industry; not because of production (he was the leading producer for his broker/dealer), but because he was overwhelmed by having to serve 1242 Clients while working an average of 84 hours during a six-day workweek. Sound familiar?

Rather than quit the business, Mr. Little decided to try one last thing: he would implement the principles of Values-Based Financial Planning™ with "ruthless execution" as he likes to say. A remarkable thing happened: Mark optimized his practice. He identified 17 Ideal Client (among the 1242 he served) who help him grow his Ideal Community to 91 Ideal Clients within an 18 month window. He was able to reduce his workweek to 36 hours during a three-day period while also quadrupling his production. Most importantly, his Ideal Clients loved the new level of attention they were able to receive, and they became extremely loyal Clients who entrusted Mark with 100% of their investible assets.

Mr. Little also applied the principles he learned in his journey to becoming a Trusted Advisor to gain more balance in his own life. He was able to reduce his weight from 315 pounds to 183 pounds in ten months … but the most fascinating part of that story is how he did it (and we won't tell).

If you are looking for a speaker with "real world" financial planning experience who can inspire your audience to take stock of their current performance, set goals for improvement, and then execute, execute, execute … then Mark little is your man.

To schedule Mr. Little* for your next speaking engagement, please call Anne Bachrach, Financial Services Speakers Network, 858-450-2963.

* Mr. Little's availability is limited. Please try to book your event as early as possible. Additionally, Values-Based Financial Planning books are highly recommended for all attendees to enhance their experience.

Don VanLandingham, CPA (Independent Speaker - Not an employee of BAI)

Don VanLandingham is outstanding example of a Trusted Advisor who has achieved Being Done™ status while creating a Values-Based Financial Planning™ practice for his Clients.

Mr. VanLandingham started his career as a CPA. After years of developing his practice, he noticed that something was missing. He wanted to provide his Clients with a full range of services that were not available through his restricted practice as a CPA. So, he went about the business of becoming a full-service Financial Planner.

During the course of his effort, he happened upon Value-Based Financial Planning™, and the philosophy resonated with him. At first, he resisted some of the principles. Then, he committed himself to executing all of the principles exactly as they are taught. Within two years, he was "Done."

Mr. VanLandingham has built a very good practice comprised of extremely loyal Ideal Clients. They enjoy the new level of service, and he enjoys a much more balanced life. His story is an inspiration to anyone who is trying to change for the better. He shares the successes and failures he experienced along the way and projects a belief that "If I can do it, anybody can do it." Mr. VanLandingham is an excellent choice if you want your audience to hear from someone who knows what it's like to be "in the trenches."

To schedule Mr. VanLandingham* for your next speaking engagement, please call Anne Bachrach, Financial Services Speakers Network, 858-450-2963.

* Mr. VanLandingham's availability is limited. Please try to book your event as early as possible. Additionally, Values-Based Financial Planning books are highly recommended for all attendees to enhance their experience.
