"Your referral program has had a huge impact on our practice. Your system has been a permission slip for us to talk to our clients about the experience they have had with us and then have them share that experience with others. We have experienced a direct relationship between these value conversations and our ability to attract new clients with significant assets. In the last 6 months since your training - after adding our own unique touch to your teachings - we have acquired 5 new high-level households with assets totaling $10M. This has been remarkable. I wish we had discovered this sooner."

"I told a client that I accept new clients and that I would appreciate if she would not keep me a secret. She immediately thought of her sister who in the past told her she was not happy with her financial adviser. I met the sister at 10:30AM the following Monday and not only did she come with her check book, she invested $1million with me! Thank you for your guidance and for a referral system that produces incredible results."

"The Bill Cates’ Referral Training Program is the best in the business. We're using live programs and his video-based program. For the 50 advisors who went through his first session, new clients acquired through referrals are up 30% over the same period last year."

"I used one of your strategies the afternoon after your seminar and it worked brilliantly. We had a situation where a client had told several of her friends about us, yet they had not called us. When we met with her after your seminar, we used the language you suggested. To my delight, she pulled out her Blackberry and gave us each person's home and work phone, home address, email, spouse’s and kid’s names, a brief history of each, and told us to tell them she told us to call because she wants them to have a good retirement. Three referrals that we thought might be dead were brought to life again. We already have an appointment set with one of them. Your strategies have proven immensely helpful."
