017 – How A Former Teacher Turned Advisor Built A Thriving And Profitable Virtual Practice – Without Sacrificing Her Health Or Family

Finding that perfect balance between success and personal fulfillment can be challenging for advisors.

The truth is, anyone can build a successful practice around their dream life if they plug into the right system (and we have proof).

Let me tell you about one of our 5-star advisors, Barbara Halperin.

Barbara is a successful “virtual” advisor who gets rave reviews from her clients on her outstanding service and support throughout the annuity buying process.

Here’s just a sample of the types of glowing reviews from Barbara’s clients:

Although she continues to build a successful practice…

… she also values time with her family (has 11 grandkids) and is passionate about her physical health as well (loves pilates).

However, it wasn’t always rainbows and roses for Barbara, at the start she struggled to get in front of a consistent stream of high-quality leads. She tried different types of marketing and lead programs that produced very little if any results.

When I first met Barbara back in March of 2020 she was afraid she would have to choose between her practice and personal life.

She was a former teacher turned advisor who found out the hard way that selling annuities isn’t something just anyone can do successfully.

However, with a little commitment and plugging into the right system, things really started to change.

Fast forward to today, Barbara has a top-performing practice, has time to spend with her grandkids every day, and can do pilates whenever she wants to. Now her biggest decision of the day is whether to play hide-and-seek or make a healthy green smoothie.

Barbara is the perfect example of someone who built a successful practice around her dream life (and you can too, with the right marketing system).

Her journey from struggling to success wasn’t always easy, but what she did to turn it all around may inspire you to make some efficient changes to your practice.

Now, Barbara is a perfect example of someone who built a successful business around her dream life.

And we’ll reveal how she does it on the next livestream.

Here’s a hint…

She has no fancy office.

  • No staff on payroll.
  • No radio interviews.
  • No retirement workshops.
  • No dinner seminars.
  • No TV interviews.
  • And works from home.

Which is why Barbara Halperin is our special guest on this episode of the Annuity Experts Show.

In this episode, we’ll get an inside look at how Barbara built and runs her practice around her dream life.
