Guest: Mackey McNeill, CPA/PFS

Mackey McNeill, CPA/PFS, shares when and how she talks about investments with her clients in this episode of the PFP Section podcast. She walks you through her approach to her key ideas including:

If your clients loved investments, they wouldn’t use your services.
At the end of the planning process, refine the plan by developing the investment policy statement while the client is with you.
Talk in plain English and repeatedly ask if anyone has questions while also keeping the conversation focused on the client.
How her process takes more time and investment up front though saves time in the long run and creates lasting clients who refer.
