— Kevin P, an advisor in Illinois

“I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the Flow Charts you are providing. Helps me feel a little less crazy as an advisor.”

— Tami C, an advisor in Colorado

“The white-label feature in Deluxe is really fantastic. It is really powerful to talk through the decision tree with a client with our logo & color options on the chart, frankly, because it makes us look smarter!”

— Bill, an advisor in New York

“Our team has really liked the charts and were particularly pleased with the traditional IRA vs. 401k for a business and the QBI chart.”

— Scott, an advisor in Oregon

“I just met with a client who had a question regarding her eligibility for Social Security benefits. We went through the flowcharts answering each question and following the lines. She looked at me and said 'This is great, it was so much easier to use this than trying to go through all the literature that Social Security offers. Thank you so much.'”

— Ben G, an advisor in Wisconsin
