What would you say if we told you that charging higher fees might actually be in your client’s best interest? In this episode, we chat with Matthew Jarvis, the insightful mind behind Jarvis Financial, author of "Delivering Massive Value," and host of “The Perfect RIA.” Matthew challenges the pervasive low-cost mindset by showing how quality and value often come with a higher price tag. His journey from a struggling practice during the 2008 financial crisis to a top industry performer is a testament to resilience and strategic transformation. Learn how to overcome the fear of rejection and align your business practices with client needs for mutual success.

And finally, we discuss how charging higher fees can allow for greater investment in resources and quality of service.
