Send us a text

Derek Notman pivoted his financial planning practice from a face-to-face business to a completely virtual practice back in 2013. As Derek puts it, he has "many arrows in his back" from doing this. He learned a ton of lessons in the process which led to him creating a system that helps other financial advisers across the globe to go virtual without having to learn these (sometimes expensive) lessons by themselves.
In this episode, Derek and I talk about:

What he's practice was like before going virtual
What led to him making this change
How it all works
How his existing clients at the time reacted to the change (an how he approached it)
Challenges he had to overcome
Knowing what he knows now, how would he go about doing it today
ConneqtorVAS and how it helps financial advisers do what Derek did (but without the time, expenses and lessons required)
