Ermos is by far the most inspiring leader I have ever worked with. Regardless of the situation, these are only a few of the qualities that set him apart as a true leader: his relentless positivity, "can-do" attitude, incessant desire to drive change and improvement, willingness to help and empower his advisors in any way he can, providing them and their clients with the BEST experience possible in any project or undertaking, his ability to get things done quickly, efficiently, and with a smile on his face... True leadership is definitely a game changer and an invaluable asset to any team. And Ermos is the definition of it. Thank you so much for everything you do, Ermos!
Andy is one of those rare coaches who goes above and beyond, not just in expertise, but in heart. His ability to shape messaging and language in a way that resonates is exceptional. Whether it’s fine-tuning a headline or reframing a client conversation, his insight has helped me communicate with more clarity and impact. But what really stands out is his generosity. Andy has made himself available outside of our regular coaching sessions, not because he had to, but because he genuinely cares. He’s also taken the time to work with my team, showing real interest in our goals and growth. It’s rare to find someone this committed to your success. If you’re looking for a coach who combines strategy with sincerity, Andy is the one you want in your corner.
Ermos has helped me greatly in my journey to improve my business and client service. His willingness to help me with any kind of project is unparalleled. I've learned more with him than I have any other business mentor I've ever had. In just 6 months working with him, my client count increased by 33%. If you are a financial advisor looking to grow your business with less time wasted on unproductive strategies you need to contact Ermos.
I just want to let you know that I just finished my call with Andy. Having been at NWM in the past, that was the most in-depth useful session I have ever seen on phoning a prospect and managing that initial conversation with a prospect.
Ermos is a consummate leader in every sense of the word. His passion and incredible work ethic set him apart. Ermos epitomizes a lead by example philosophy in his coaching and mentorship. He has a great ability to help develop Financial Planners to achieve success and fulfill their potential.
I wanted to emphasize how great my call with Andy was. He's very sharp and gave me some good insight on how to approach these people, what he's seen to be successful, and some other best practices. He is a great resource and thanks so much for letting me know about him. He's a huge value-add for advisors
“I’ve worked with many professionals over the years, but few have had the impact that Ermos has had on my business. He’s done more than just give advice, he’s created a real community of advisors where ideas, strategies, and encouragement flow freely. That alone has been a game changer. He’s also helped me sharpen my LinkedIn messaging and elevate my online presence, something that’s now become a consistent driver of new business. His insights around technology and AI have helped me work smarter and stay ahead in an industry that’s changing fast. If you’re a financial advisor looking to scale, modernize, and get serious results, I can’t recommend Ermos enough.”
Great Leaders and Mentors are hard to come by at any point in history or one's career. I've known Andy for approximately six months and trust this is the beginning of a long fruitful friendship and relationship. When speaking of Andy and his abilities in all respects, it comes with the greatest respect, admiration and of the highest value. Without reservation, he covers all the bases so very well; from coaching, challenging a person's belief systems, to listening, understanding, offering advice and ideas, pointing you in the correct direction, helping you find your path as great mentors do. He's not afraid to call you out and hold you accountable. His desire and passion are you succeeding, plain and simple as that sounds. I don't know if there's a limit to his abilities or patience, at least I haven't found them yet. He has helped me greatly as I entered the learning curve to a new method of conducting business. This has moved my game and efforts from striving to achieving. Do I feel like I'm walking on air.... not yet but very close. Changes and results have been exponential and almost mindboggling as the universe opens up. This last statement is not made lightly. In my long career across multiple industries, sectors and encounters with numerous pretend leaders, he actually walks the talk, delivered by example and exemplifies what leadership and mentorship ought to be regardless of industry or sector. He truly is in a class of great people, where I can name less than a handful of equals.
An exceptional leader, Ermos is calm in a crisis, leads by example not by authority, is always trying to find the best solution for all parties in any situation and truly leads by trying to 'serve' the people he cosches. Ermos is a gifted and inspiring public speaker. He is usually the hardest worker in any room, and he does it all with a genuine warmth, sense of humour and enthusiastic good cheer. I have worked under Ermos for 4 years and along side him for 20 years and he is the very best.
Ermos' coaching has been absolutely essential to my new found success. I have had occasion to work with some very well regarded coaches over the past 15 years in the financial industry, but I state quite emphatically that everything about Ermos' approach is easily the most effective and engaging coaching I have received. I can't stress how much he has actually become more of a partner in my success than just simply a coach. My revenue growth has been remarkable since we began working together as well. Before working with Ermos I was struggling to find new prospects and clients to work with. As a result of working with him, I have gone from $5M in new assets being a "decent year" to $5M in new assets being an average month - And the success pattern is now ingrained in me to the point that I have set a $10M new AUM goal for the first month of this year. A year ago I would have immediately questioned the sobriety of anyone making such claims, but I have lived it, and I continue to grow my practice at an ever increasing pace while providing better service to those clients I am so honored to work for in my practice. I highly recommend speaking with Ermos if you desire strong, efficient and well managed growth in your practice!
Two Thumbs UP! Andy has great insight and shared amazing ideas for our business!
Ermos was constantly bringing forward unique and innovative ways to transform our business and encourage the people who worked in it. He inspired the people he coached with his actions as well as his words, and the multiple awards he received year after year are a testament to the exceptional level of his leadership. I'm tremendously grateful for the support and mentorship that he provided.
