The fact is, most financial industry pros have a massive, untapped income potential. Most are "just getting by" when they could be living the life of their dreams. But how do they bridge the Gap in way best that serves both themselves and their clients? Jim Effner has the answer. After decades as a top producer and managing partner at an industry leading financial services firm, Jim created a master plan for bridging the Gap, founded The P2P Group to teach his method to pros, and has already helped hundreds of financial advisors double and triple their income-and more.

It is practical, actionable, and something that will elevate your career trajectory and your life the moment you put it into practice. If you're tired of staring into the Gap and ready to leap into the world of the Top Producer, buy this book. Then hold on. It's going to be an exciting ride!

In early 1973, a sleek, sturdy bay named Sham was winning races by impressive margins as great as fifteen lengths. After defeating the mighty Secretariat in the Wood Memorial, many turf writers were touting Sham as the Kentucky Derby favorite. The stage was set for Sham-mania to sweep the country at a time when the nation needed a hero. But it was Secretariat who won over the nation. The chestnut colt known affectionately as Big Red, running under the white and blue silks of Meadow Stable, was the embodiment of the American flag. Despite impressive victories and record-breaking performances, Sham's popularity paled in comparison. If Secretariat were America's horse, Sham might well have been everyman's horse, a working-class hero who couldn't get the recognition he deserved. This is the other side of the story of Secretariat's famous Triple Crown season and of his remarkable challenger who found that great was only second best. (2016-06-21)
