Want More Referrals? Get a Niche.

There is a long, long list of reasons that you should consider narrowing your focus and choosing one or more niche markets to serve. On just about every measure you can think of, from production and assets to pure satisfaction and enjoyment of the job, Horsesmouth's research has found that niche advisors are more successful than generalists.  But for our purposes, there is one especially compelling reason to "niche up": you're quite likely to get more referrals.

In their survey of more than 2,100 advisors, Horsesmouth asked the question, "Are you getting more referrals since you started working in your niche?"  Check out this chart.

   

It's hard to argue with those results.
