A Branch Coordinator discusses the
process with the recruit to determine the following:
| |
The type of Project desired (Basic or
Basic Plus) |
| |
The number of client accounts that will
be involved in the transfer (this is the total of brokerage accounts
plus outside mutual funds and outside annuities, if
applicable) |
| |
The date that the account information
and project materials will be sent to Broker-To-Broker |
| |
The desired project return
date |
|
 |
The
Branch Coordinator contacts Broker-To-Broker with the above information
to formally schedule the project. We will send an order form to the
Coordinator. This order form acts as our contract and also
a blueprint for how the project will be handled, and it must be
filled out and sent along with the project materials before any
processing can begin. |
 |
On the agreed-upon date, the Branch
Coordinator sends the necessary materials to Broker-To-Broker via email or overnight
delivery. |
 |
We process the project as prescribed.
This includes preparing the necessary forms and highlighting areas for
completion and/or client signatures. We assemble the mailings by household, so
that each client will receive only one envelope that includes paperwork for all
the accounts of that client. |
 |
On the agreed-upon date, we overnight
the completed project to the desired recipient. The assembled mailings
(stuffed, but unsealed) are securely boxed and in alphabetical order for easy
identification. Ideally, all that remains is to seal the envelopes, affix the
required postage and drop them in the mail. |
The process itself is fairly simple. And, the more we are allowed to do during our process, the less there is for the branch or broker to do on the back end.
The success and ease of a project lie in good planning. Provide us with complete and accurate information and get materials shipped to us as scheduled. Doing so will ensure that projects go smoothly.
