Rise to the Top

The Event

This isn't a seminar.
It's a reckoning.

Most of us entered this industry with fire in our chest and a number in our head. Then reality punched us in the face — and for a lot of advisors, that's where the story ends. They start managing expectations instead of raising them.

Rise to the Top exists for the ones who refuse to settle. For the producers who know there's another level — and are ready to do the work, learn the language, and build the process that gets them there.

Over five focused hours, Eszylfie Taylor pulls back the curtain on the exact mindset, language, and process behind one of the most prolific careers in financial services. No theory. No filler. All substance. And with only 200 seats in the room, you'll actually be able to use it.

“

Lions don't dream of hunting — they just hunt. I don't turn on my prospecting knob. I don't turn on my closing knob. It's instinctual. That's where I want you to be.

— Eszylfie Taylor, The Taylor Method

What You'll Learn

The complete Taylor Method.

From mindset to close — every component of the process Eszylfie uses to increase productivity, case size, and case rate. Built on the D.R.E.A.M. framework and delivered live over five hours.

Mindset & the D.R.E.A.M. Framework

Decision. Relentless. Execute. Aim High. Manifest. The mindset system behind every top producer — plus why lions don't dream of hunting, they just hunt. Learn to detach from outcomes and lock in on process.

The Approach

How to get in front of the right people. Referrals, centers of influence, networking, personal observation — and how to assess and activate every channel without cold-calling your way to burnout.

The Fact Find

The questions that unlock every sale. Assumptions are the root of all disappointment — Eszylfie teaches you to ask instead of assume, identify need vs. greed, and uncover what actually moves each client.

The Opportunity

How to spot the sale hiding in every fact find. You don't have to be perfect — just better than what they have. Learn to identify repositioning opportunities, present holistic solutions, and never overwhelm with options.

The Close

The objection-free close. If you've done the fact find right, clients will either do what you say — or contradict themselves. Conviction, persuasion over force, and the exact language that gets signatures.

Win the Day & The Four Personality Types

The Boss. The Brain. The Feeler. The Drifter. How to read the room in five minutes and become like water. Plus: how to calculate the dollar value of every appointment and build a calendar that guarantees your income.

Who Should Attend

This room is for
the serious ones.

If you're comfortable where you are, this event isn't for you. But if you've got the drive and need the process to match it — keep reading.

✓Insurance professionals who want language they can use Monday morning
✓New advisors who want to skip the decade of trial-and-error

By the Numbers

The man
behind the method.

Eszylfie Taylor isn't a keynote speaker who talks about success from a distance. He's an active practitioner at the top of the game — and he'll show you exactly how he got there.

Your Host

Eszylfie Taylor

Eszylfie Taylor entered financial services at 22 with one goal: be a millionaire by 25. He didn't have a roadmap — he built one. By learning, failing, iterating, and relentlessly focusing on process over outcomes, he built a practice that landed him in the top 50 advisors in the country.

But what sets Eszylfie apart isn't just production — it's his ability to teach. The Taylor Method was built to give other advisors the language, process, and mindset that took him years to develop, compressed into a system anyone can learn and own.

Rise to the Top is where that system comes to life. This is the room where Eszylfie does what no training material, podcast, or coaching call can fully replicate — he shows you, live, in real time, how the world's top producers think, speak, and close.

From Past Attendees

What the last Rise to the Top did.

"I've been to every coaching program you can name. Nothing came close to what I got from five hours with Eszylfie. I walked out with language I used the very next day — and closed a case I'd been sitting on for weeks."

Financial Advisor

Independent practice, Southern California

"The personality types framework alone was worth the ticket. I finally understood why my best prospects were ghosting me — and I had the script to fix it. This is the training I wished I'd had in year one."

Insurance Producer

10 years in the industry

"I brought my whole team. The value-of-appointments exercise changed how we think about the calendar. Not just motivation — actual process. We restructured our prospecting approach the week after the event."
