ABOUT THE DIAMOND TEAM :

Diamond Teams facilitate the growth of advisory and wealth management firms by accelerating the training and knowledge of advisors at every level.

They enhance the productivity and proficiency of financial advisors while amplifying the revenue, profit, and enterprise value of the advisory firm.

Each team is accountable for a group of the firm's clients, or all of them in smaller firms.

In Diamond Teams, the Senior Advisor is responsible for the top 20% of the Team's essential clients, devoting the rest of their time to bringing in new clients and / or managing the firm.

The majority of the team's clients are then divided between the two Lead Advisors (sometimes called Service Advisors), who handle client meetings and provide investment management, financial planning, and other services.

The Lead Advisors also focus on bringing new clients to the firm.

The Associate Advisor supports the Lead Advisors by sitting in client meetings, taking notes, and learning how the firm's lead advisors work directly with clients.

They also help with investment screening and monitoring, drafting financial plans, and administrative duties. As firms expand, one of the Lead Advisors forms another Team, while the Associate Advisor takes over their role.

A new associate is hired, and the training process starts again. The Lead Advisor would be promoted to the Senior Advisor role upon the retirement or transition of the current Senior Advisor to a firm management role.
