“As an advisor who works almost exclusively as a fee-based planner, I've seen a 300% increase in business, hired high-level advisors to my team and have stronger relationships with our clients. I had my best year from an income perspective. I also have a greater appreciation for my work, a more repeatable process and greater degree of mastery between balancing my career and life. This isn't possible without Eric.”

Let’s be real for a minute.
Attracting talent is an infinite game—there’s no finish line. As a business leader, understanding that the race to attract and retain talent never stops is crucial. Your approach will significantly impact everything from revenue and hiring costs to profits, morale, organizational growth, and customer satisfaction. Talent is your most precious asset. It determines whether your company leads or lags behind competitors.
Contrary to popular belief, being a talent magnet isn’t about flashy Instagram accounts, LinkedIn pages, or job posts touting work-life balance and trendy perks like foosball tables. Those are just surface-level attractions. The true "magnetism" comes from how you and your team show up in front of prospective recruits. It’s about how you perform, communicate, and connect in that pivotal moment when talent is assessing you as much as you're assessing them.
Eric Bond centers his performance-enhancing approach by integrating mindset with recruiting performance tactics. His core philosophy is that performance is realized when mindset is optimized.
He is the founder of Competitors Mentality, LLC., a coaching company that applies this philosophy to clients ranging from financial advisors, to entrepreneurs, to people with recruiting responsibilities within their organization.
Eric has spent 14 years in a recruiting role, the last 11 years in the financial services industry. 9 of those years have been spent in leadership positions at 2 Fortune 100 companies. Over his time in the financial services industry, he has recruited 250+ advisors.
Eric has spoken at dozens of recruiting events including on national stages at industry conferences
Whether in his coaching or speaking, Eric brings authenticity and transparency in all settings. He has a natural and gifted ability to inspire those he works with to higher results in their professional and personal lives.
CEO's that want to buy back time with a proven roadmap that wins

You should see meaningful change in your behaviors within a few weeks. You should see ROI within 3 months time if not sooner. A general expectation is 3 months provided you do the work necessary for success.
As with anything worth doing in life, this process takes focus. However, that doesn’t necessarily equate to a huge time commitment. Here’s the good news. You will master the material while simultaneously being productive in your business.
We offer a flat fee to work with us for 3 months (One quarter of the business year). If you don’t see meaningful results after 3 months, WE'LL WORK WITH YOU UNTIL YOU DO. This holds us accountable to helping you get results. THIS IS OUR GUARANTEE TO YOU.
You don’t and neither do we. The right time to work with a coach is when you're ready. Plain and simple. If you're not ready to be vulnerable and transparent, a performance coach won't make the difference maximizing results.
Here’s Eric's personal story of working with a performance coach. Eric has worked with his personal performance coach for the last 4 years. They meet weekly. Being an athlete, Eric missed having a coach/player relationship. He wanted someone to hold him accountable for the stated life and career goals he had for himself. Taking the leap to the next level required an outside set of eyes to help with that journey.
The results weren’t immediate but after a period of time, he made many meaningful changes in his life that led to him being a better husband and father, he got back in similar shape to when he was competing in college athletics and is making a massive impact in countless lives on the business side.
Eric's suggestion is to spend 30 minutes with him on a discovery call. Allow your mind to be open. His process will help you vet out if you are ready to hire a coach. If Eric feels he can’t help you get where you want to be, no sweat. You part as friends.
“This was my first experience with coaching. Eric challenged me. He helped me immensely to build out my team so I could spend time working on my business, not in it.” - Phillip Held, CLU (President -FINSECA NY)
