Jamie discusses the topic of DIYers (Do-It-Yourselfers) and the challenges they pose to financial professionals. She explains that after encountering individuals who sought to extract valuable information without any intention of becoming clients, referring to them as “brain suckers,” they realized that their negative attitude towards these meetings was counterproductive. People approached them seeking information, which prompted a change in approach to charging for prospect appointments. No matter what, your primary focus should always be on delivering as much value as possible during these meetings.
