If you are a financial advisor or money manager and have always wanted to write a book, you’re not alone. Many have thought about doing that very thing. But very few ever do, because writing a book takes a lot of time. And many advisors (and some money managers) tend to be more verbal than literary—better talkers than writers.

Being a book author is an entrée to media interviews, guest columns and speeches. Authorship helps you make connections and meet the clients you want. A book that costs a few dollars to print could be the differentiating factor that lands you a multimillion-dollar relationship. A book is a great introduction and a nice way to follow up with a prospective client. It will gain you trust and respect
