About Us

Our Team

We are a group comprised of some of the brightest minds in marketing, content, sales strategy, operations, and implementation. Here to share our collective decades of wisdom and experience with you. We aim to teach, inspire, and motivate advisors who not only want to double their business, but work half as much.

At heart, Bill Good is a disrupter. In 1982, he trained 40,000 rookies to prospect. In January 1986, he fused client marketing, prospecting, and practice management into a single marketing system. He developed the industry’s team concept. He built the only CRM that can manage the entire life cycle from prospect to client. Named one of the five top coaches in the United States by Wealth Management.

● First job: number crunching for the future Chairman of the Fed, Alan Greenspan, Bill’s first boss.
● Proposed to his wife (Joava) on their first date. They’ve been married nearly 50 years.
● As a child, he created a system for distributing Thursday night dinners to the dog. To this day, he still despises liver.
