"Our job is to make sure you understand how much you can spend, what are the best things to spend it on, and the things that you shouldn't spend money on. So that no matter how large or small your practice, you can still make money."

Matt Audette, CFO, LPL Financial on LPL CFO Solutions

Every day, you’re helping your clients navigate their way through strategic decisions that make a huge impact on their families, their businesses, and their lives. As a financial advisor, you are the CFO of their lives. But who do you have on your team helping you make strategic decisions about your business?

Strategic planning is just as important to you as a business owner as it is to your clients. And there are different considerations during every stage of your business lifecycle. How do you make the right decisions that propel your financial practice forward? Partnering with a CFO can help you make the right decisions, and benefit your practice in many ways, across all phases.

1. Foundational

Is your financial house in order? Is your business structured for operational efficiency? Do you adhere to financial controls and have a clear view of your cash flow, budget, and revenue?

2. Growth

Are you looking for business growth or expansion? Are you positioned to take on and service new clients or acquire a book of business? What is your service matrix and staffing model? Is it maximized to drive revenue?

3. Optimization

Is your business running as efficiently and profitably as possible? Do you understand your optimal product mix? Have you analyzed your time spent vs. fees generated per household? Are you leveraging best practices so you can spend your time with clients and on the activities that have the most impact?

4. Succession

Are you prepared for the eventual transition of your business, whether near-term or many years from now? Do you know what your practice is worth today? What steps do you need to take today to maximize your valuation?

Having a strategic ally can make all the difference

At every stage, strategic insight and expertise will help you run your best business. Whether your objective is fine-tuning your operations, preparing for growth, or planning for the future, your next step is crucial to your success. Make sure that next step includes proven methods driven by data that can deliver measurable results.
