In this episode of The Velvet Rope Playbook, we’re tackling one of the biggest silent killers of success in high-end markets:

Sounding just like everyone else.

In industries like real estate, financial services, consulting, and luxury branding—

most professionals lean on features and benefits, thinking that will set them apart.

"I help grow investments."
"I offer unparalleled service."
"I have deep market expertise."

All true.

All completely forgettable.

Because at the affluent level, expertise is assumed.

It’s not a selling point—it’s table stakes.

Today, we’ll explore:

  • Why sounding “professional” actually makes you invisible to wealthy clients
  • How affluent buyers subconsciously group all generic experts together
  • Why focusing on features and benefits leads to price wars
  • The critical shift from information to narrative
  • How storytelling—not specs—becomes your ultimate differentiator at the top of the market

If you want to stand out to elite clients, you must stop sounding like an option—and start sounding like an obvious, inevitable choice.
