The Growth Traps No One Warned Me About with Sam Sloma Part Two
vendredi 6 mars 2026 • Duration 36:42
In Part Two, Sam Sloma dives into the niche that shaped Engage FS - advising professional footballers - and why that market runs on trust, discretion, and long-term agent relationships.
While athletes make up 25% of the firm, the real growth engine is advising younger business owners exiting for £10m+. We explore how exit planning differs from traditional retirement advice, and why Sam uses financial planning software as a "red flag" tool rather than a forecasting crutch.
We also discuss niche positioning, acquisition offers, scaling a UK financial planning firm, percentage vs fixed fees, and Sam's candid views on industry ego and long-term wealth planning.

We also explore his annual "Surge" client review system, lessons from his first acquisition, and how he thinks about scaling a financial planning firm without sacrificing lifestyle.
A candid conversation on fee models, firm growth, and staying calm under pressure.
