In a recent email interview, she discussed what advisors should be doing today to position their practices for the future.
According to Jambusaria, LPL’s research on top-performing practices shows that advisors with strong marketing capabilities and those who invest in building their client service capacity are best positioned to attract and retain more clients. She notes that with the advisor-centered wealth management industry expected to grow from $27 trillion to $35 trillion in assets over the next decade, advisors who focus on growth, efficiency, and resiliency will be better equipped to capitalize on this trend.
Aneri Jambusaria, managing director of LPL Financial’s Services Group, has identified three factors that determine the success of advisory firms: growth, efficiency, and resiliency. While growth is often discussed, efficiency and resiliency are equally important. Advisors should consider how they spend their time and how their office operates.
Administrative Solutions and Paraplanning Services can help advisors free up time for high-value work. Successful advisors have diverse revenue streams, including charging for financial planning to weather market ups and downs. They also have a long-term succession plan in place to ensure they are protected in case of unforeseen events. LPL is helping advisors execute on insights to drive impact, not just providing ideas and insights.
