Everplans Professional and Orion Advisor Services Announce Integration to Enhance Advisors' Referral Networks
Everplans Professional named "Best New Financial Planning Integration for New Business and Retentions" at 2016 Orion FUSE Conference
New York, NY, March 8, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Financial advisors using Everplans Professional and Orion Advisor Services, LLC (“Orion”) now have a new tool to engage and grow their client base. Everplans, a guided life and legacy planning platform that helps people create, store, and securely share all the important plans and information their family would need if something were to happen to them, is the first platform of its kind to integrate with Orion’s open API.
The new feature, available today, enables advisors to create an Everplans account for each client directly from the Orion platform. Building on the feature previewed at the Fuse Conference, the integration also allows firms utilizing Orion to receive notifications when new leads are generated by the Everplans referral system, Network Amplifier. As clients build their Everplan, they share their Everplan with “Deputies;” family, heirs, attorneys, accounting professionals, and other trusted associates. These Deputies can now request their own Everplan from the advisor, generating inbound leads. These leads are then added to the notification system within Orion, closing the loop.
"Right now our technology allows us to capture what is important in our clients' financial lives. But true, holistic financial planning should incorporate additional information about our clients and their families' lives including accomplishments, hobbies, goals and dreams. The integration between Orion and Everplans has the potential to significantly enhance the way we serve our clients' families."
Dan Kiley, CEO and President of Retirement Corporation of America
“Advisors do much more than manage assets for their clients; the guidance and advice advisors provide help create a healthy financial state that touches every part of a client’s life,” said Eric Clarke, CEO of Orion. “Integrating with technology offered by Everplans allows us to help our advisors create a more complete financial plan for each unique client they serve.”
Dan Kiley, CFP®, CEO and President of Retirement Corporation of America, a current Everplans and Orion client recently shared some feedback on this integration, “Right now our technology allows us to capture what is important in our clients’ financial lives. But true, holistic financial planning should incorporate additional information about our clients and their families’ lives including accomplishments, hobbies, goals and dreams. The integration between Orion and Everplans has the potential to significantly enhance the way we serve our clients’ families.”
“Advisors are missing opportunities to build relevant, contextual referral networks, strengthen relationships, and provide value-added services for next generation prospects,” said Abby Schneiderman, Everplans co-founder and co-CEO. “We are thrilled to be partnering with Orion to help their clients and their clients’ heirs have more meaningful interactions, retain assets and build relationships across generations.”
Technology Builds Trust
Last September, Everplans participated in the third annual FUSE event hosted by Orion, and this integration is the direct result of a collaboration during the conference. After the conference, a panel of seven industry thought leaders awarded Everplans the “Best New Financial Planning Integration for New Business and Retentions.”
A webinar to demonstrate the integration will be available for current Orion and Everplans users on March 16th at 11 AM EST – register here. Current Orion platform users that are interested in utilizing the Everplans Professional platform can request a demo.
