Guidance and Commitment to Witness My Success

“I’ve had a desire for many years to implement client focused strategies in my practice. I just did not know or have a clear understanding of what was needed to do so. That implementation and accountability is what Scott Hamilton was able to bring to life and thus elevate my practice to a new level.

His guidance and commitment to witness my success in the program was the piece that was missing. His suggestions and ideas came only after he had obtained an understanding of what my practice currently involves and how I wanted to elevate my practice. From where my business was in 2021 to where it is now – the difference is incredible.”

The Most Impactful Investment I’ve Made

“I’m excited to share my heartfelt recommendation for Scott Hamilton. Over the past three years, we’ve had the privilege of working with Scott, and the impact he’s had on our team has been nothing short of transformative. We hired Scott to work with a group of our top Advisors in the OSJ I manage, Oak & Stone Capital Advisors. From the moment we engaged him at an enterprise level, Scott has helped me and five other advisors completely reshape how we communicate and serve our clients.

The result?

I now have what I like to call my dream practice! I focus on my top 50 clients—people I genuinely enjoy working with—while my staff expertly manages the other tiers of clients. This structure has not only enhanced our efficiency but has also led to an increase in referrals from my top clients, who trust and appreciate the service we provide.

Scott’s strategic guidance has revolutionized our approach, emphasizing client advocacy and proactive engagement. His insights have helped us foster deeper relationships, ultimately leading to superior results for our clients and our firm. Hiring Scott has undoubtedly been the most impactful investment I’ve made for my personal practice, Diener Money Management, and our OSJ, Oak & Stone Capital Advisors, in the past three years. I couldn’t be more grateful for the growth and success his coaching has inspired.
