Zimbabwe: A Land of Resilience, Opportunity, and Future Growth Zimbabwe is a country that captivates and inspires through its people, landscapes, and history. Known for its unparalleled beauty, Zimbabwe is far more than breathtaking landscapes—it’s a story of resilience, optimism, and an unwavering commitment to progress. In my recent podcast, the conversation moved beyond individual journeys and brought to light the spirit of Zimbabwe itself. Let’s explore some of the powerful qualities that make Zimbabwe a hidden gem with potential waiting to be realised. A Resilient People One thing is clear when talking about Zimbabwe: its people are its most significant strength. Zimbabweans have weathered immense economic and social challenges over the decades, from hyperinflation to political instability, yet they continue to move forward with optimism and grace. This resilience is ingrained in the national character—a sense of pride that no obstacle is insurmountable. As one interviewee mentioned, Zimbabweans don’t give up on their dreams; they find innovative ways to move forward, create opportunities, and support each other through tough times. It’s a country where neighbours, families, and communities come together to build a brighter future. An Economy Ready for Growth Zimbabwe’s economy has faced its fair share of hurdles, yet it stands as one of the most unique and untapped markets in Africa. With abundant natural resources, a highly educated workforce, and a thriving informal economy, Zimbabwe’s economic potential is vast. The opportunities are not only in the mining sector, which remains a critical pillar, but also in agriculture, services, and emerging industries like technology and renewable energy. The country’s highly adaptable workforce, many of whom are entrepreneurs out of necessity, possess the skills and ingenuity needed to fuel these sectors. As infrastructure and policy improvements continue, Zimbabwe’s economy has a promising path toward sustainable growth. A Culture of Innovation Zimbabwe’s environment has fostered a culture of out-of-the-box thinking. The economic and social constraints faced by its citizens have led to innovative solutions that push beyond traditional boundaries. Financial services, for instance, have evolved rapidly in Zimbabwe, with local banks and investment firms adapting to the needs of the market in ways that reflect the unique realities of Zimbabwean life. This adaptability extends to all sectors, where the ability to do more with less is an art form, and every challenge is met with creativity and a solution-ori..................

Are You Leading or Following? Rethinking Your Platform Provider Choices Introduction In the financial advisory world, there’s a simple truth: following the crowd often feels like the safest option. But what if the crowd is heading in the wrong direction? With industry consolidation shrinking the number of platform providers and creating near-monopolies, many advisers are left with limited options—and even fewer reasons to look elsewhere. The result? A dangerous overreliance on the biggest names in the game. The Problem with Herd Mentality The appeal of sticking with the dominant players is understandable. Their visibility, marketing reach, and incentives make them hard to ignore. But ask yourself this: are you staying with them because they genuinely meet all your needs, or because it feels like the easier path? The tendency to follow the crowd often stems from comfort, but it can also blind us to better opportunities. Consolidation - A Double-Edged Sword Recent years have seen significant mergers and acquisitions among platform providers, leaving advisers with fewer choices. While this may seem like a boon for standardisation, it also limits flexibility, stifles competition, and increases the risk of disruption if a provider falters. History has shown that even industry giants can face unexpected challenges, leaving advisers and their clients in the lurch. The Case for Diversification As an adviser, you likely tell your clients about the importance of diversifying their investments to spread risk. So why wouldn’t the same principle apply to your choice of platform providers? Exploring alternatives can reveal providers that prioritize innovation, deliver superior service, and offer a level of personal attention that larger firms often lack. A New Way Forward Stepping away from the crowd isn’t about being contrary—it’s about being strategic. By actively seeking out alternative providers, you position yourself as a leader in your field, not just another follower. Your willingness to explore new solutions can set you apart, help you provide better client experiences, and ultimately safeguard your business from potential disruptions. Final Note. It’s time to stop and reflect: are you truly getting the best from your platform provider, or are you simply going with the flow? The financial advisory landscape is changing, and those who are proactive in seeking out better options will lead the charge into the future. Don’t let comfort hold you back—lead the way by embracing innovation and diversification.

Unleashing Sales Success: Lessons from Brian Peters on the Veri Podcast In a recent episode of the Veri Podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Brian Peters, a sales legend whose journey is nothing short of inspiring. Brian, a former top-earning advisor in the UK and across two continents, has dedicated his career to perfecting the art of sales and client acquisition. From becoming financially independent to facing life’s challenges head-on, Brian’s story is a testament to resilience, passion, and expertise in sales. Brian’s insights offer a treasure trove of practical tips for sales professionals, especially those in financial services. Here are some standout lessons from our discussion: Qualified Referrals Are Gold: Brian emphasizes the power of referrals as the fastest route to success. His strategy involves priming existing clients to refer within the first two meetings—a method that led him to consistent daily sales and gave him control over his income. Effective Over Efficient: Brian points out that the shortest route from your current client to a new one is through referrals, avoiding the "spaghetti junction" of cold calling or mass networking. Offer Value First: To get a CEO’s attention, Brian once offered $500 for a five-minute meeting. This unconventional tactic showcases his commitment to valuing the other person's time, which led to landing a client and forging a valuable connection. Growth Mindset: Brian believes in the "big fish in a big pond" approach, urging advisors to move beyond local markets and think on a grander scale. His advice is to constantly push the limits and aim to be part of the 0.01% of top earners. For anyone in sales, especially financial advisors, Brian’s approach is a game-changer. His method of handling referrals, understanding client psychology, and making every client interaction count can lead to exceptional business growth.

Stuck in the Mud: Why Settling for Poor Support Could Be Costing You In the world of financial advisory, time is money—and nothing drains both faster than dealing with poor support from your platform provider. Yet, many advisers find themselves stuck in the mud, tolerating subpar service simply because they’ve grown used to it. If this sounds familiar, it’s time to ask yourself: how much longer can your business afford to wait for the support it deserves? The Cost of Settling: When support is slow, unresponsive, or ineffective, it doesn’t just create frustration—it creates risk. Delays in resolving issues can lead to missed opportunities, compliance headaches, and dissatisfied clients. Worse, it sends a clear message: your provider doesn’t prioritise your success. So why do so many advisers settle for less than they deserve? Often, it’s because they feel there’s no other choice. Breaking the Cycle of "Good Enough": Over time, poor support can start to feel normal. Advisers get used to making excuses for their provider, blaming complex systems, or assuming that switching would be more trouble than it’s worth. This mindset keeps you stuck, limiting your growth and preventing you from delivering the seamless experience your clients expect. There Are Better Options: Here’s the truth: exceptional support isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. The right platform provider acts as a partner, not just a service. They respond quickly, solve problems proactively, and empower you to focus on what you do best: advising your clients. Providers with better service aren’t just out there—they’re ready to help you today. The Risk of Staying Stuck: History has shown that platform providers can fail, merge, or shift priorities, leaving advisers scrambling to adapt. Relying on a provider that already offers poor support only amplifies this risk. By refusing to settle, you’re not just improving your day-to-day operations—you’re safeguarding your business against future disruptions. Being stuck in the mud is a choice, and it’s one you don’t have to make. Your clients expect the best from you, so why not expect the same from your platform provider? Take a hard look at the support you’re receiving. If it’s not what you need, it’s time to move on. Because settling for less isn’t just frustrating—it’s costly.

Breaking the Chains: Why “Making Do” Is Holding Your Business Back As financial advisers, we often remind clients that sticking with what they know isn’t always the best strategy. Yet, when it comes to administration support, how often do we fall into the same trap? Many advisers have grown accustomed to “making do” with familiar systems, processes, and providers, even when they’re not getting the support they need. It’s time to break those chains and explore what’s possible with the right working partners. The Comfort of Familiarity: There’s a certain reassurance in sticking with what’s familiar. It feels safe. Predictable. But is it efficient? Is it scalable? Too often, advisers find themselves compensating for outdated or inadequate support systems, investing valuable time and energy in workarounds rather than focusing on growth. This mindset of “it’s good enough” limits potential and keeps businesses tethered to inefficiency. The True Cost of “Making Do”: Settling for subpar administration support might seem like a small compromise, but it comes with big consequences. Missed deadlines, errors, and lack of responsiveness from support providers can strain client relationships and hinder growth. Over time, the cumulative effect can be costly—not just financially, but in terms of reputation and client trust. The Freedom of Working with the Right Partners: Breaking free starts with recognising the value of strong working partnerships. Modern administration support isn’t just about ticking boxes; it’s about collaboration, innovation, and alignment with your business goals. The right partners streamline processes, reduce workload, and empower your team to focus on delivering exceptional service to clients. Opening Up to New Possibilities: Transitioning to a new partner or exploring different solutions might feel daunting, but the rewards are worth it. By partnering with providers who prioritise your needs, you gain access to enhanced technology, responsive service, and tailored solutions. These partnerships free you from the limitations of “making do” and open doors to greater efficiency, scalability, and success. The chains of familiarity can be hard to break, but they’re not unbreakable. By letting go of “making do” and opening up to new working partnerships, you can unlock your business’s full potential. Don’t settle for what you’ve always known—explore what could be, and discover how the right support can transform your practice. Because when you break the chains, you’re free to focus on what truly matters: growing your business and serving your clients. #FinancialAdvisers #BreakingTheChains #BusinessGrowth #AdministrationSupport #WorkSmarter #PartnerForSuccess #ClientExperience #EfficientSolutions #InnovationInFinance #AdviserSupport #FinancialPlanning #UnlockPotential #BusinessEfficiency #ProfessionalPartnerships #FutureFocused
