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.
