Podcast Interview and Checklist Recap

April 18, 2019
In The Press

Recently, Michael Lecours was invited onto the Advisor Success Series Podcast hosted by Matt Shute of 3D Asset Management. Michael and Matt dug into several issues including:

  • The frustration that led to Michael creating fpPathfinder
  • The types of advisors that Michael expected to become members versus the types of members that actually became members
  • How checklists and flowcharts are being used by advisors and the role that they are playing in an advisory practice
  • Sources of inspiration in developing checklists
  • Best book to read if you want to nerd-out on checklists

Listen to it yourself (it’s only 30 minutes!) 

 

Checklist Recap

Since it’s been a hectic few months due to tax season, we wanted to take a moment and recap the checklists that have come out so far.  We will continue to focus on checklists for the foreseeable future as a result of member requests.  Below is our current checklist lineup:

What Issues Should I Consider Before I Update My Estate Plan?

What Issues Should I Consider Before I Retire?

What Issues Should I Consider If My Spouse Passed Away?

What Issues Should I Consider If My Spouse Has Been Diagnosed With A Terminal Illness?
