Another tip: invent desirability. I said no to a billionaire multiple times because I was too busy with other clients. He said, "Ok, how do I join the queue?" Then he said, "How do I skip the queue?" 😂

Invest the time, Do the work, master your craft and earn the right to be found. Hunting with a rifle rather than shotgun helps too 😊

I sell a luxury color oracle deck and let me tell you this conversation is so right in so many ways! It's refreshing to see others understanding that people are seeking safety at the end of the day! My clients are all about this!

So, giving myself away here, a teeny, tiny bit, for the sake of education.

I’m not ultra high net worth, but, I’m far, far from poor.

This is exactly how I shop.

I seek out things that I need, and go to them, vs. the other way around.

Who really likes pushy sales people anyway?

This is the first time I've heard Cocaine called a "Gateway Drug".

Exactly. Very well said. People need to detach from the outcome and external validation.

As a private photographer I can relate, especially when the client knows you do something special, they value in-negotiably. because many people value their privacy and I respect that- not publishing them online in my portfolio, this is how I got trusted, and got my niche. Though quality of service should be there

Affluent minds have diversification intellectuals .. It's true they call through gateways rather than direct but they strong social web.

Excellent video, although I feel a little reticent about the idea that HNI are totally out of reach and are not swayed by the human emotional drivers that we all are. Great video, thank you.
