Written by Russ D'Argento | Mar 6, 2023 6:00:25 PM

One of the biggest hurdles that many professionals face when trying to develop new business relationships is getting past the initial barriers of unfamiliarity and lack of trust. This is particularly true in the financial services industry, where decision-makers are inundated with a constant stream of pitches and solicitations from service providers and product vendors alike.

To overcome this challenge and build meaningful connections with prospective clients, it's crucial to have a way to identify and capitalize on shared interests and commonalities. This is where the FINTRX Affinity Relatability Scores come in. In this blog post, we'll explore three ways that you can leverage this powerful feature to drive your business development efforts forward.

1. Find Common Ground with Prospective Clients

The first and most obvious way to use the Affinity Relatability Scores is to identify common interests and connections with your prospects. By doing so, you can start your conversation off on the right foot, establishing a basis of trust and understanding that will make it much easier to move forward with the sales process. With the Affinity Relatability Scores, you can quickly review all of the commonalities you share with a given prospect, including everything from educational background to professional affiliations and interests outside of work. Armed with this information, you'll be able to tailor your approach to the specific client in front of you – whether that means highlighting your shared experiences or simply utilizing conversation starters that will put them at ease.

2. Build Stronger Relationships with Existing Clients

The Affinity Relatability Scores aren't just useful for breaking the ice with prospective clients – they're also a powerful tool for building stronger relationships with those you're already working with. By identifying new areas of common ground and shared interests, you can deepen your connection with your clients and better position yourself as the go-to resource for all their financial needs. Perhaps you notice that a client shares a passion for a particular hobby or is a member of the same professional association that you are. These shared connections can serve as a foundation for building stronger, more meaningful relationships over time – and can also help you identify new opportunities for cross-selling and upselling.

3. Leverage Team Affinity Relatability Scores

Finally, the Affinity Relatability Scores can be a powerful team-building tool as well. By aggregating the scores for all members of your team, you can identify areas of shared expertise that you can leverage to generate new business and deepen existing relationships. For example, you may discover that one of your colleagues is an alumnus of the same university as a prospective client, or that another member of your team shares a passion for a particular sport or hobby. Armed with this information, you can assign tasks and outreach efforts to the team member who is most likely to connect with the client on a personal level, thereby increasing the odds of success.

In conclusion, FINTRX Affinity Relatability Scores are a powerful tool that can help financial services professionals deepen their connections with industry contacts, break down barriers to trust and understanding, and ultimately drive business growth. We invite you to have a closer look at how this powerful feature!
