Running a successful financial advisory business is difficult enough without worrying about if your client meeting notes are accurate and fulfill your compliance requirements.
At Mobile Assistant we believe every advisor deserves the peace of mind that comes from knowing every client interaction is accurately documented and seamlessly integrated into your workflow, freeing you to focus on what truly matters—providing exceptional financial advice and deepening client relationships. That’s why we proudly support a variety of processes, dictation templates, and workflows unique to the various financial institutions and broker-dealers we serve.
For many advisors, though, that peace of mind following a client meeting still might seem like a far-off dream. However, with Mobile Assistant’s innovative F450 solution for LPL advisors, this level of efficiency and precision is attainable for every firm.
The Critical Role of the F450 Form for LPL Advisors
For LPL advisors, the Annual Client Meeting Review (F450) form is a cornerstone document. It captures the changes and recommendations made to a client’s portfolio or financial plan. By following this documentation process, LPL advisors create transparency, meet compliance obligations, and set the groundwork for deepening client trust.
However, the traditional process of documenting these meetings is often laborious and as with any manual process it can be prone to error. Advisors and their teams must juggle note-taking, manual updates to the ClientWorks CRM, and adherence to strict compliance standards—all of which consume valuable time and resources.
Why Mobile Assistant’s LPL F450 Solution is a Game Changer
Mobile Assistant has revolutionized the documentation process by combining state-of-the-art dictation technology with human transcription services.
The result? A streamlined, efficient, and highly accurate method for managing the F450 form so advisors can maintain high standards of service and compliance with minimal effort.
Efficiency and Accuracy at Your Fingertips
Mobile Assistant’s TalkIt+ mobile app integrates a built-in F450 template that allows advisors to record their notes on the go. These recordings are then transcribed with over 99% accuracy by our U.S.-based transcriptionists, all of whom specialize in financial services.
The transcriptions are seamlessly delivered to the ClientWorks CRM, ensuring that all client updates are accurately documented and easily accessible any time they need to be found in the future.
Compliance Made Easy
Maintaining compliance with regulatory standards is one of the most difficult aspects of running a successful advisory practice.
A proven process for the F450 form with Mobile Assistant not only ensures accurate documentation, it also provides a repeatable and auditable process that creates consistency across every team in an organization.
Success Stories
The ways that advisors succeed with our F450 solution is best illustrated through the success stories of actual advisors.
Here’s how Bair Financial Planning and Marquardt Wealth Management have benefitted from adding TalkIt+ to their processes.
Bair Financial Planning: Streamlined Workflows
With Mobile Assistant, Bair’s advisors now record meeting notes directly into the TalkIt+ app with the F450 template, which are then transcribed by our team. The operations staff receives the dictation by email, each advisor signs off via e-signature, and the notes then go directly into Redtail CRM and LPL ClientWorks.
This streamlined workflow not only saves time but also ensures that all client interactions are thoroughly documented and readily available for review.
Marquardt Wealth Management: Enhanced Compliance and Accuracy
For Marquardt Wealth Management, the benefits of Mobile Assistant extend beyond efficiency. The firm has seen a marked improvement in the accuracy and detail of its client notes. E. Todd Marquardt, the firm’s president, emphasizes the importance of these improvements:
“Now that I have Mobile Assistant, I just pull up the LPL 450 form inside my TalkIt+ app. Having the Assistant Template in place of the paper form makes my notes so much more concise and detailed.”
In addition to these successes, the Mariner Independent Advisor Network (MIAN) has also implemented specific dictation templates to give its Ascend Integrated Wealth team complete control and customization over their meeting notes.
