AskMyAdvisor® Thoughts from some sharp minds on our referral onboarding OS

Here are some thoughts from leaders around the advisor world.

The AskMyAdvisor® Referral Method
At the heart of it, when you remove delay…

Referral onboarding becomes automatic and predictable.
What causes delay? Confusion how to refer.
Often, people don't know how to move forward with the referral. The referrer starts wondering:
  • Who should reach out first? The advisor or the referral?
  • What phone number? Or should they just text?
  • Use email? What if it lands in spam?
  • Can a non-client ask a question?
  • Is my advisor taking referrals?
And the list keeps going.
When a path isn’t clear or intuitive, people wait. That is delay and delay kills referrals before they even start. But what happens when delay is removed? Referrals happen. Effortlessly.
The Solution: Have a standard, One Direct Path (ODP)
Advisors must set one standard path for all referrals. Just one. This becomes the go-to path used by clients, COI advisors, and anyone in their circle.
  • Web page (we call it an Advisor Private Portal, APP)
  • Private email address (one only for referrals, nothing else)
  • Email subject line (use a code e.g., “[VIP] Referrer Name”)
  • Private voicemail line (important: make 100% clear it is solely a voicemail line)

Secret sauce: It’s tempting to have multiple ODPs. Do not. Have one path only.
That’s the secret. It kills confusion, ends delays, and keeps referrals flowing, fast and friction-free.
One path. One system. Predicable, scalable referrals.
One path. One standard.
This is the secret to removing delays, while the ODP is easy to remember, easy to share, and easy to stay top of mind for future referrals. Simple wins. Every time.
🔐 Inner Circle Secret (ICS): Take your ODP to the next level.

Make it by invitation only
Do this by applying the Pareto Principle, the 80/20 rule.
The 80/20 rule is real. 80 percent of your referrals and revenue likely come from just 20 percent of your clients and COI advisors. They are your vital few.
If the other 80 percent disappeared tomorrow, your business would still be strong, right?

With this the given…Only give ODP access to your top 20 percent clients, advisor friends and their COIs. This automatically qualifies each person that reaches you to be the crème de la crème. They are either top 20% relationships or someone from their COI. These are your elite relationships.
"Birds of a feather do flock together." Want to replicate your best relationships? Get more referrals from them, right?

Why it works
Reminder of things we already know and a few things maybe not considered, yet.
  • People like VIP treatment, does not matter who you are
  • Referrals are the #1 way to add clients, bar none
  • What happens when referrals only come from your top 20%?
  • These are the highest level referrals possible.
  • Is there a simpler way to replicate your best relationships? (rhetorical question;)
The Referral Revolution Has Arrived
Uber, Netflix, Airbnb…"It wasn’t broken. Until someone saw it differently."
Yellow cabs worked. Blockbuster worked. Hilton worked.
Until someone asked, “What if there’s a better way?”
  • Uber didn’t fix taxis. It removed the wait.
  • Netflix didn’t fix rentals. It removed the store.
  • Airbnb didn’t fix hotels. It removed the walls.
Then everything changed.

Uber transformed car service.
Netflix transformed streaming.
Airbnb transformed where we stay.

AskMyAdvisor® Transforms How Referrals Happen
Alex Hormozi said it best: “You can take two years to build something exceptional, then let your customers market it forever.”
We agree.
We didn’t rush to market. We are building something exceptional.
Most companies have sales and marketing departments.
Tesla doesn't. They built a product so good, people talked. We’re doing the same.
AskMyAdvisor® runs on internal flywheels designed to spread naturally. This means…

No sales department. No marketing team. No ad budget. Just exceptional advisors sharing an exceptional OS.
This changes everything.
No scripts. No bribes. No friction. One clear path that turns referrals into relationships automatically.
"This isn’t a better version of the old way. It’s the new way. For the 5.6 million accountants, attorneys, financial advisors, realtors, and other trusted advisors in the US, this is the new standard.

Adopt it fast, or get left in the dust. And we’re just getting started."

-Brian Ouellette, Founder of AskMyAdvisor®
Open Source: Two Paths, DIY or DFY
The AskMyAdvisor® Method is open source. Here’s why…
For the advisor and client gap, we don’t believe “more of the same” is the answer.
Not clever scripts. Not forced asks. Not referral gimmicks. Not phony networking meet and greets.

“The advisor and client gap isn’t fixed by squeezing harder. It’s fixed by removing what actually kills referrals: delays.”
We open sourced the method because our mission is simple. "Help people by actually helping people."
That means:
  • Removing friction for both advisors and their clients.
  • Teaching the system without bias, both DIY or DFY.
  • Earning adoption by building the best path, not by pushing product.
We believe a single, clear path for referrals creates a full shift in the advisor-client relationship.
It strengthens trust and accelerates results: helping people.
This isn’t just software. It’s a new standard. And we made it open to everyone.
Open Source: Two Ways to Activate, DIY or DFY
Here are the two paths. Both can be activated in the next 10 minutes, or less, to always be on.
