In or Out
“There are only two options regarding commitment. You're either IN or you're OUT. There is no such thing as life in-between.”
Pat Riley, Former NBA player, current president of the Miami Heat

Commitment and Trust
Must have an Individually Managed Program – can’t take assets away from the advisor and must make it easy for advisor (one-sheets)
Must have staffing – relationship managers for professional advisors
Must relinquish control – they come to you – they drive the relationship with their client – sometimes we talk to the client extensively before they establish a fund – sometimes we find out who they are when we receive the DAF agreement
Most come in last 5 weeks of the year
