Does anyone have any ideas for a sales training program for a JR advisor? Trying to find a way to boost his confidence. He is calling, but only around 50 calls a day.

Perhaps you could construct a gravestone with the words "Jr. Advisor's career 2017-2017" and put it near his desk?

What part of training do you want to teach him? Attitude? Behavior? Technique? If it's attitude, perhaps you made a hiring mistake? You need to hire motivated people, not hire people to motivate. He just needs to know what the standards are - generally 200 calls a day (is what I've heard a lot). Also check out Chris Gardner - a guy who became homeless while in an internship who made those calls... because he was hungry enough. Does he know the standard for the industry technique (what to say, etc.), I'd probably also look up Bill Good's stuff as a starting point (adjust as necessary), or whatever has worked well for you, what you do, what you do best, and what makes you different than other advisors/firms

Just got promoted to audit senior, but can’t imagine doing another busy season. I have some forensics internship experience from college and always wanted to pivot to forensics. It sounds like the firm is working mostly on COVID stuff these days, but I’m more interested in doing investigations work. If I transfer and have no choice but to work on insurance/claims, would it be better to stay in auditing? Is the insurance/claims work demanding/difficult intellectually wise?

NYC Freelancers! My Medicaid is ending soon and I need to start making health insurance decisions (lame).

I’m trying to also rationalize paying for my own in NYC but it’s so expensive ($500+/mo). I go to the doctor fairly often. Single NYC freelancers (no kids), what do you pay monthly or yearly? Worth it?
