What Makes the Presentation Significantly More Effective

Summary of Goals - The adviser and client have a one-page visual overview of where they currently stand with each of their financial goals and what needs to be done to achieve those goals. This bonus page allows you to get right to the point – or present a multi-page detailed analysis.

Arranging the Presentation - The adviser can first discuss what the client perceives as their No.1 most important concern, increasing the opportunity for the client to take action, but the adviser can then also discuss additional concerns they want to introduce to the client.

Recommendation Pages - The adviser can visually illustrate to the client the benefits of your recommended policies for: Life Insurance, Disability Insurance, and Long-Term Care Insurance. The recommendations page shows how much insurance need the software calculated and how much you recommend.

Recommendation Page Is Important

Here’s why. Not only does it prevent ‘BUYER’S REMORSE’, it also prevents competing advisers from stealing your clients. What is one of the first things an adviser does when they meet with a new client? They ask the client if they can review the client’s existing insurance policies. Then what do they do? They tell the client why their current coverage is not sufficient or is inappropriate in an attempt to undermine the client’s current adviser relationship. A great way to keep this from happening to you is to suggest the insurance Recommendation page is kept with the policy. That way, when the client pulls out their policies for a competing adviser to review, the client is reminded why they purchased the insurance, and will not allow the competing adviser to undermine your relationship

Visual Layout – The printed report is designed with encapsulated sections to limit the amount of information the client must process at one time, reducing the likelihood of the client feeling overwhelmed or overloaded with information.

Numerical Layout - The calculation results are presented in a logical and transparent fashion to make it easy for an adviser to verify the results with a calculator.

The “Hey, I can actually understand this!” Presentation Your Client Can Take Action On

Life Goals steps your client through each of the goals he/she wishes to focus their attention on. Each goal is presented in the same style, creating a sub-conscious “flow” that’s easy to follow.

It starts with their overall selection of goals they currently wish to address, metering where they stand today in relation to a perfect plan for their life’s goals.

Then each goal is analyzed in simple terms. Each goal’s section of analysis includes:

  • Goal Objective
  • Current Progress towards Goal
  • Actions Needed to Achieve Goal
  • Supporting Graphs and Ledgers
  • Supporting Assumptions and Details
  • Recommendation Pages (for insurance policies)
  • Resource Pages

The overall report also includes a customisable notes page and optional resource pages that act as backup to your proposal, or simply educational sales pages.

It has to look good

Considering everyone in the UK has to think about their five key financial needs, everyone is a prospect. We’re not talking just ‘baby-boomers’ or the middle-aged, but any adult thinking about their future.

The majority of twenty-something’s and, even thirty-something’s, don’t understand the benefit of working with an expert; especially if they don’t have extra cash flow. It’s important for them to understand that financial planning is not always about investments and retirement. It’s also about protecting what they have so you don’t risk losing what they’ve gained so far. These twenty and thirty-something’s are open to planning, but the average needs packages can be a road block. Something too boring, with too many ledgers and a first page presenting too much to digest can quickly sink interest and determination to go any further.

That is why while updating our basic needs package, we had no interest in re-inventing the wheel as it’s known. We wanted to revamp the wheel with a more attractive appearance and a better handling experience for both the expert and the client. We wanted our product to lose the road blocks that other needs packages present.

Life Goals doesn’t re-invent the wheel, it just gives it a set of racing tyres. Quote Mark
