Clients decide in the first few minutes whether a conversation feels relevant and worth their time. If the opening is advisor‑centric, too long, or unclear, engagement drops fast. But when planners set the environment with clarity, respect, and collaboration, clients lean in and contribute.
The I–We–You framework gives you a simple, repeatable way to do just that: state intent clearly, frame collaboration with respect, and highlight the takeaway clients will leave with.
Together, these moves keep openings short, client‑first, and memorable — helping clients connect, commit, and move forward with confidence.
