Wealth management firms · Sales coaching

Train advisers to handle the fee question without flinching.

Sales coaching for a wealth management firm means training advisers on the specific conversations that lose mandates, such as explaining fees or handling an investor comparing three quotes. GullySales runs this coaching with real call reviews from your team, not generic sales theory.

What sales coaching means

Sales coaching is ongoing, one-to-one feedback on a specific salesperson's calls and deals. It differs from training because it continues after the session and is aimed at one person at a time. GullySales listens to real calls and reviews live deals to coach on what actually happened, not a hypothetical.

Last updated 5 Oct 2026. Rules for this trade differ by state and professional body, and they change. We describe restrictions in general terms, so check the current position with your own council or adviser before you publish anything.

For wealth management firms

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “The fee conversation is rehearsed, not improvised”

    Advisers who can explain a fee structure in one calm paragraph close more often than those who apologise for it or bury it in jargon.

  • “The second meeting is where mandates are actually won”

    Coaching often focuses on the pitch, but the review meeting where the investor asks hard questions about the written plan decides more mandates.

  • “Role-play beats a slide deck”

    Advisers practising a real objection, such as an investor comparing your fee to a discount broker, learn faster than they do from a training manual.

What we do

What we deliver for wealth management firms.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. Fee conversation script and practice sessions

    A rehearsed way to explain the fee structure in one calm paragraph, practised in role-play sessions with your advisers.

    Result: Advisers explain fees confidently instead of apologising for them.

  2. Review meeting coaching, not just the pitch

    Coaching focused on the second meeting, where an investor asks hard questions about the written plan.

    Result: Advisers handle the meeting that actually decides most mandates.

  3. Objection role-play library

    A set of real objections, such as comparing your fee to a discount broker, rehearsed until the response is natural.

    Result: Advisers stay composed when an investor pushes back.

  4. Call review sessions with your own recordings

    Coaching built around reviewing your advisers' actual calls, not a generic sales course.

    Result: Feedback is grounded in how your advisers really talk to investors.

  5. New adviser onboarding script

    A starter script and objection list for a newly joined adviser, covering the questions investors ask most often.

    Result: A new adviser sounds prepared from their very first meeting.

How the result is measured

  • Individual conversion rate
  • Coaching sessions completed
  • Improvement against personal baseline

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

What to coach in the meeting

Coach the advisers on these six moments in an investor meeting, within what your registration allows.

Use a recorded or noted meeting from a prospect who did not sign. Mark where the investor's questions went unanswered.

The first meeting opening
Check that the adviser asks about goals, dependants, existing holdings and the investor's own worries before mentioning any product or portfolio.
The fee explanation
Rehearse one calm paragraph on how the firm is paid, whether by advisory fee or distribution commission, and where the written fee schedule sits in the agreement.
What returns can I expect
Coach advisers not to name a figure. They should explain that markets carry risk, that past performance is no guide, and describe the process they follow.
The comparison with another quote
Coach advisers to ask what the investor is comparing and to explain differences in service and reporting, without running down a discount broker or a rival adviser.
The second meeting
Check that the adviser walks through the written plan section by section and notes each question the investor asks, since this meeting usually decides the mandate.
The follow-up record
Log each meeting with the topics, open questions and the date the investor agreed to hear back, and check that the file notes match what was said.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the sales coaching work runs

  1. 1

    Assess starting point

    We review recent calls and deal outcomes for each rep to see where coaching will help most.

  2. 2

    Build individual plans

    A short, specific plan is set for each rep, not a shared curriculum.

  3. 3

    Run the coaching sessions

    Sessions happen on a regular schedule, built around real recent calls and deals.

  4. 4

    Track progress

    We track whether the specific focus areas are actually improving, call by call.

  5. 5

    Adjust the plan

    Focus areas are updated as a rep improves or as new gaps appear.

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
How will we know coaching is working?
Listen to the fee conversations. Coaching targets one specific skill practised repeatedly, so the change shows in how an adviser handles fee questions in real calls, which you can compare with notes taken before it started.
Does this replace hiring experienced advisers?
No, but it closes the gap for newer advisers faster and keeps senior advisers sharp on a conversation they may have stopped preparing for.
Can we record adviser meetings and calls for coaching?
Meetings with investors include financial and personal details, so tell the investor and note their agreement, keep recordings private, and ask your compliance officer what your registration and record-keeping rules require. Review a small number of meetings with the adviser present.
How do we give feedback to a senior adviser who brings in the most business?
Use a specific meeting, not a general view. Ask the adviser to explain a lost mandate and what they would change. Top performers respond to being treated as peers, and they are the ones whose habits newer advisers copy.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
