5 Philanthropy Mistakes Your Clients Make (And How You Can Help Them)

 

As an advisor, you want to attract, grow, and retain your clients -- or risk losing them when wealth transfers to the next generation. You know that supporting your clients’ philanthropic goals is a great way to build and deepen relationships across generations. But you don’t always know how to have conversations about charitable giving. You worry you might not have all the answers and often feel “out of your element.” What’s even worse, your clients suffer from “delusional altruism.” They hold onto deceptive and illogical thoughts that prevent them from achieving their philanthropic goals. 

In this webinar you will learn what “delusional altruism” is, the top five philanthropy mistakes your clients make, and how you might be inadvertently contributing to them. You’ll also learn practical steps you can take to grow your business across generations by increasing the clarity, impact, and joy your clients experience with their charitable giving.
