Transition Services

There is no substitute for a fast, efficient service team when transitioning your clients from your firm or current OSJ to Evolution. Our comprehensive transition process includes five critical services that create a positive first impression.

Step one is building a customized transition plan that makes sense for you and your clients.

Training

We provide extensive training and support so you and your team are ready to begin the transition process as soon as you arrive.

Operations

We want you to maximize your use of the Evolution operations team. We do the work so you don’t have to.

Technology

Our integrated technologies can help you work smart by doing a lot of the work for you.

We understand that time is one of your most valuable assets. We’re proud to offer technologies that will reduce the time needed for the transition so you can continue to focus on growing your business.

Compliance

Our experienced compliance team is dedicated to providing a responsive level of service that meets the needs of financial professionals.

Our compliance team’s process is built on a foundation of us understanding your business and your understanding how we look at business. These relationships are continually growing and evolving. We’re here to protect your clients while also protecting you and your interests.

Workflows

All the workflows at Evolution are based on best practices that work for our professionals and their clients. We have years of experience developing optimized workflows that benefit our financial professionals and their clients.

It’s been incredibly valuable to work with a team that works to really understand our concerns and escalates them to Advisor Group management when the situation warrants.

Evolution and Chris in particular have provided a great sounding board from the moment we started our own firm. They’ve added valuable insight and advice along the way as we work to create the structure that works best for us and our clients.

The team at Evolution have consistently given us helpful feedback to reduce NIGOs and learn ways to be more efficient. They take extra time to host monthly calls explaining new procedures so that we have a chance to ask questions or put specific scenarios to them.

Vikkie especially helps us think like a compliance officer and helps us understand the “why” so that we can execute the “what”.

Evolution is our advocate when it comes to dealing with our home office, they are our partner when it comes to finding opportunities to grow our firm through merger/acquisition, and they are our trusted advisor when dealing with compliance/new business issues.

Evolution introduced us to our firm's first acquisition which has paid off extremely well. They were a terrific resource in evaluating and pricing the deal.

From both a practice management and operations perspective, having a partner like Evolution allows us to develop our practice, process business, and serve our clients in an extremely efficient manner; far better than what we would expect should we have chosen to have a direct home office relationship with our current or any other B/D.

Recently, Evolution’s leadership helped guide our acquisition of a large AUM practice from a senior advisor. The process took well over a year to lay the groundwork for a smooth client transition where Evolution provided guidance on a wide range of issues.

We seek input from Evolution as a valuable resource when making most business decisions.
