Marked Unread

Transitions reveal everything.

In this episode of Marked Unread, Brian Wininger and Dom Henderson break down what really happens when advisors change firms and why some clients follow while others don’t.

They explore the emotional side of transitions, the role of trust in client decisions, and why most advisors misread what clients actually care about in these moments. It’s not about platforms, performance, or logistics. It’s about the relationship.

If a client can’t clearly explain your value, they won’t follow you. If they trust you, they will.

This episode is a real look at what makes relationships stick and what causes them to break when it matters most.
