Organization is key!
Develop a spreadsheet or chart listing all clients
and all of their account types (IRA, 529 plan, trust,
etc.). This includes clients (and their account types)
who are spouses of those investors.
ONE WAY TO DO ALL THIS PAPERWORK: By client and their
family
- For those clients with a number of
accounts
- Create a form group per client and include the many forms
they personally need – their account type forms and
their new account and change of dealer forms.
- While the forms are open, change the registration
type to the other family members to fill out,
save, print the paperwork for them.
- Open the b/d Change of Broker Dealer or Change
of Rep form required. While it’s open,
fill in any additional information required (i.e.,
previous broker dealer) that is needed by ALL
(or a particular group) of the clients but isn’t
specific to any one of the clients. Either batch
save it for many clients or save it as a Laser
App temporary form (template) for use from within
interfacing CRM’s or for use with each
other client/family.
- Collate the paperwork to be sent out for signing.
A SECOND WAY TO DO ALL THIS PAPERWORK: By form
- Organize clients into those with the same account types – i.e.,
all with IRA’s together, etc. Open such form(s) needed by
several clients and batch print it.
- Open a form. While the form is open, for
example, double-click a date area to put that same
day’s
date in it. Fill in any additional information required
that is needed by ALL of the clients
but isn’t
specific to any one of the clients.
- For those clients with just 1 account type:
- Batch print that form.
- Collate the paperwork to be sent out for signing.
