Building customer relationships is easier when you start from a place of trust and empathy. Whether someone is a financial adviser, planner or financial business owner, being new to the industry comes with its own set of challenges — especially when it comes to finding that first client. While you may have the right credentials and the passion for helping others with their money, you must also work to convince potential clients that you’re the right person for the job. But unlike entrepreneurs who have a particular product to sell, you won’t be able to rely on your product's features and benefits to help persuade them. You’ll instead need to focus on what you can offer that no one else can. To help get you started, the financial leaders of Kiplinger Advisor Collective offer their best advice for securing your first client — and what worked best for them — no matter the niche you serve.

Reduce your tax liabilities by following these expert-recommended tips. When it comes to taxes, having a higher income may not always be the blessing it’s often thought to be. With a bigger income comes increased tax rates, as moving into a higher tax bracket means a larger portion of income will be taxed at a higher rate. Those earners with multiple streams of income — investment income, capital gains, bonuses and more — can further complicate their taxes. These factors, paired with the possibility of losing out on certain deductions or credits due to their income, mean high-income earners are often on the lookout for ways to optimize their tax strategy and minimize their tax liabilities, or what they owe. As financial and tax experts themselves, the members of Kiplinger Advisor Collective know the ins and outs of effective tax strategies.
