An ideal client likely recognizes the exceptional service you and your team provide. Chances are you have a lasting relationship that transcends beyond business. For lasting relationships especially, you want to know what that journey looks like, where opportunities exist and continue to add value. What if there was a tool that could streamline your operations, supercharge your client interactions, and help you reach new heights of success?
You’ll frequently hear financial advisors say, “this is a relationship business.” And at Private Advisor Group, we make every effort to free up capacity so advisors can spend their time where it matters most: building relationships. Our community believes that the right CRM technology can help financial advisors improve business relationships and inspire growth. While various CRM solutions exist in the marketplace, two of our most popular offered are Redtail and Wealthbox CRM. Let’s dive into how embracing the benefits of a CRM can transform your firm’s growth.
Nurturing Meaningful Relationships:
We spoke with the team at Redtail about nurturing relationships through your CRM. Rick Williamson, Director of Training at Redtail shared, “In my opinion, the CRM is the beating heart of a practice. It is the original source of truth for who your client is, and I don’t mean just their phone numbers or notes. A CRM allows you to record the intricate details of someone, their likes, dislikes, fears, and dreams. This information is incredibly valuable in building and maintaining strong, deep, personal, and professional relationships.”
Williamson highly encourages integration of core platforms, for example, a preferred marketing provider to gather data and act on it (next time you see him, ask Rick about his client’s successful pie campaign)!
Tailored Client Experiences:
With a CRM, you can effortlessly gather and organize client information, from financial goals and risk preferences to communication history and investment performance. Armed with these insights, you can craft personalized financial plans and create workflows that greatly streamline processes and operational efficiencies, offer tailored investment recommendations, and deliver exceptional client experiences that leave a lasting impression.
Operational efficiency is critical in delivering high-value service to your clients. Wealthbox, one of our popular CRM’s has a mobile app for the on-the-go financial professional they recommend. Andrew Ladwig, Director of Business Development at Wealthbox CRM, said, “The app helps busy financial advisors keep track of client communication, even when they’re on the road.” He noted, “advisors can use their mobile device’s microphone to record meeting notes in Wealthbox, which are immediately transcribed and saved on a contact record with just the click of a button. When advisors see several clients in a day, it’s easy to lose track of the important details from each meeting, so the mobile app simplifies the note-taking process to ensure nothing gets lost in the daily shuffle.”
Every client is unique, and a CRM system allows you to understand and cater to their individual needs.
Adhere to Compliance Regulations:
The financial services profession is subject to a complex set of regulations and compliance requirements. However, don’t be daunted – a CRM system that is tailored for the industry can be your compliance savior. It can simplify processes, record customer interactions, create audit paths, and assist you in adhering to regulatory obligations. Say goodbye to plowing through paperwork and concentrate on what you do best – cultivating relationships and offering exemplary service to your valued clients.
