What the film says

Greg and Sue are fifty-six. They've booked a first meeting with a financial planner. They've cancelled it twice.

It isn't the money. It's not knowing. What do they bring?

What will she ask? Will they be sold something before they understand it? What if they look silly?

The planner's website says: wealth creation, retirement planning, holistic advice. It doesn't answer any of that. Now picture the booking email with a short film, told from Greg and Sue's side.

The night before, they find their super statements and a rough idea of what they spend. In the meeting, Nina asks what they want their sixties to look like, and listens. She explains what her advice costs before anything is signed.

They leave with one page of next steps, and nothing to sign today. Greg and Sue keep the third booking. They walk in with their papers, and their questions.

At Explainer Makers, we've made a financial-lifecycle explainer before. We tell your client's story from their side, so the first meeting starts with trust instead of nerves. If your first meetings keep getting cancelled, we're happy to talk.
