#110 Collin Plume: Navigating Life Transitions with People-First Financial Planning โ€“ Part One

I learned that, yes, you were selling something, but really what was important was that was the customer service aspect, especially in that business and treating people with respect and really listening to them. And so I learned from him for many years. in that business, and then transitioned over into commercial real estate, and again, selling commercial real estate.

I was selling apartments, shopping centers, triple net properties. In that business, I learned from my mentor, the owner of the business, He was an incredible gatherer of talent. He would interview people in a very in-depth way. He spent time with people. He did a lot of events outside of work. He even did an event that I copied which is we do a sales trip every year for my current business.

The reason he did it is he wanted to spend time with people and really get them to learn about him, his philosophy, and also create loyalty to him and his business. And that was something that he did, and I use it currently in my company, Noble Gold. But in that business, I learned a lot from him. on how to have loyal employees and how to treat people with respect, which he always did.

But I also learned something really interesting, which is what not to do. Because as much as he had loyalty and he created this environment where everybody had, he had these great employees, he was a terrible marketer. He did absolutely no marketing. He didn't see the sense of that. He didn't want to spend the money. And he didn't realize that sales and marketing are so intertwined

And he created a new digital marketing way and had some early success. in that business. So I think all of the careers early on led me to starting Noble Gold. And the experience that I had was perfect in that I learned that early customer service and client relations are your most important asset. And I learned that in the insurance business.
