    We have been made aware that there are external parties falsely claiming to carry out financial services on behalf of Goldman Sachs (including Goldman Sachs Asset Management International and Goldman Sachs International) in order to market fake investment products and to solicit monetary payments. These external parties may pose as Goldman Sachs through the use of fraudulent communications via email, instant messaging or phone, as well as through the use of fake brochures and other documents containing Goldman Sachs branding and logos.
    The FCA has issued warnings about these fraudulent activities which can be found here and here.
    It is important to know that any communication you receive from Goldman Sachs would only come from an @gs.com e-mail address and/or be found on the goldmansachs.com website. Further information regarding how you can protect yourself from fraudulent activity online and how you can contact us about this can be found on the Goldman Sachs Security page, available here.

    CULTIVATING CENTERS OF INFLUENCE 

    CULTIVATING CENTERS OF INFLUENCE

    Participants seek to identify Centers of Influence with whom they would like to partner to build their business.

    Workshop Overview

    When you need to select a new product or service provider, do you typically ask friends and family for ideas? Most people do. Word of mouth and positive testimonials can be powerful. “Friends of friends” are trustworthy. People tend to choose the products and service providers whom their friends trust. 

    Cultivating Centers of Influence (COIs) is an effective way to build your practice. Through COIs, you can affirm existing client relationships, entertain new opportunities, and deliver a source of ongoing referrals between you and valued professional organizations. This is a long-term strategy that requires dedication to cultivating relationships over time.

    Over the course of the workshop, participants explore topics such as: 

    1. The top 5 COI mistakes advisors make – and how to correct them  2. A meeting checklist to help advisors execute more effective engagements 
    3. Partnerships vs. alliances: understanding differences among COIs  4. Sharing introductions with COIs and describing your ideal client 

    Cultivating COIs: Pre-Meeting

    For illustrative purposes only.

    Takeaways

    The workshop is intended to leave participants with a better understanding of COI meeting preparation, best practices for engagements and more effective follow-up methods: 

    • Developing a process for cultivating COIs
    • Emphasizing COI quality over quantity
    • Creating new and enhanced services for COIs
