Picking The First Checklists And Flowcharts To Incorporate Into Your Business.

September 5, 2019
Getting Started, How Advisors Use The Checklists and Flowcharts, Planning Management

We have put together the following curated list of checklists and flowcharts that many other advisors first started using when they became members.  And if you missed it, click here for ideas on how to implement checklists and flowcharts.

Popular Checklists and Flowcharts:

Can I Make A Deductible IRA Contribution?: There are many different considerations that affect one’s ability to contribute to a Traditional IRA. To make matters worse, the contribution limits usually change from one year to the next.  This was the very first flowchart created because Michael Lecours could not keep these rules straight when he talked with clients.

Issues To Consider During A Client Annual Review Meeting?:  This checklist covers 40 of the most important planning issues to identify and consider during a client’s annual review meeting.

Should I Rollover My Dormant 401(k)?: 401(k)s and IRAs have many unique features that may be meaningful to your client depending on their situation. The decision to roll over a dormant 401(k) involves more than just fees and investments.  This flowchart helps to address that conversation.

What Issues Should I Consider Before I Retire?: This checklist covers 32 of the most important planning issues to identify and consider for a client who is about to retire.

What Customers Are Saying About Us

Hundreds of other advisors are actively using fpPathfinder. Read what those lovely people have to say about us.
“I find fpPathfinder to be very helpful. I use the checklists and flowcharts to help prep for every meeting.”
— Ryan, an advisor in New York
“I love the flowcharts and have found them very helpful in guiding clients on complicated planning issues. The charts are easy to follow and help navigate through difficult decisions based on clients' unique circumstances.”
— Jason, an advisor in Illinois
“This is one of my best subscriptions I pay for!”
— Sean, an advisor in California
“With working from home most of 2020, we wanted to still catch some face time with our clients. We used the checklists and flowcharts to conduct webinars covering various topics. In fact, having the charts readily available, we were able to do many of these on a weekly basis, knowing the material was pretty much already established. We had such great feedback that we are continuing the webinars into 2021. We have many that actually look forward to our meeting times, and found being able to have the flowchart or checklist available to work on their own later was an added bonus.”
— An advisor in Texas
“I think fpPathfinder is the best tool I’ve ever seen in the financial planning realm. I spend an unbelievable amount of time researching some of these issues that have been boiled down to one page: consulting with other experts, citing specific sources as a backup, reviewing my work, and coming to a final conclusion.”
— Jeff S, an advisor in Missouri
“The resources available are beneficial internally and for clients. The checklists help advisors think outside the box of their knowledge and experience covering a multitude of planning areas. The flowcharts are well laid out visuals for the clients with possible scenarios identified and clear paths to take. fpPathfinders does a nice job updating the resources regularly and communicating to their customer base as well.”
— An advisor in Minnesota
“In client meetings I'm often sharing a checklist regarding a specific topic, and helping clients understand the planning issues, opportunities, and process all very quickly and efficiently.”
— An advisor in Texas
