153 Topicsš¤ Xplan Hint: Let your clients Visualise their future from the get-go
Did you know you can use Visualise as part of your onboarding process, providing clients with a projection of their potential financial future within minutes? Instead of spending your first meeting collecting data, use Visualise to engage your clients right from the start and effectively demonstrate the value of your advice immediately. Transform your client onboarding: Fact-Find playback: Start by playing back the pre-completed (or partially completed) fact find. Use the Visualise fact find screens to confirm the data easily and flesh out further details together. This process allows you to facilitate a two-way conversation rather than a Q&A-style first meeting, building trust instantly. Map out the client's goals: Move beyond facts and deep-dive into goals and objectives. Visualise is perfect for capturing your clientās "dream" future. Seeing their aspirations mapped out on screen makes the process instantly more tangible and emotional. The "What if you do nothing" reality check: Once you have a clear picture, the true magic begins. You can immediately generate a financial projection that shows your client exactly where they will be in the future if they change nothing. This projection is a powerful, non-confrontational way to highlight the potential gaps in their current strategy. Demonstrate instant value: Now, pivot to the power of Visualise. You can instantly demonstrate the financial benefit of simple, practical strategies. Whatās the impact of increasing super contributions by just 2%? How does an interest rate increase really affect their cash flow? You can model these scenarios live, allowing the client to participate in designing the strategies that will best work for them. Using Visualise in the first meeting allows you to move from being a data-collector to a future-forecaster, making the client instantly excited about the journey ahead. Transform your advice conversations with Visualise. What simple strategy do you find clients react most positively to when you model it for them in Visualise? š Let me know!1View0likes0Commentsš¤ Xplan Hint: Client Portal Config at your fingertips

Did you know that you can now resize multi-fields on the interface, allowing you to view all options on screen at once? Yep, sometimes it is the little things that make a difference. While string fields have always been resizable, viewing a long list of multiple-choice options previously required scrolling. With this latest update, simply drag to expand the field to view more, or even all, of your options at once! š22Views1like0CommentsThings to consider when creating individual vs company Professional Advisers in Xplan
Hi everyone š Iām looking for best practices and things to consider when creating Professional Advisers in Xplan. The purpose is purely to link them to clients as authorised third parties, and to have their contact details easily accessible. One thing Iām unsure about is whether itās better to enter the contact as an individual or a company. Are there any functional differences or implications for reporting, visibility, or future use? I havenāt been able to find any clear recommendations in the Community, so I thought Iād post here in case anyone has insights or tips to share.

Did you know you can use a task outcome to not only update fields against the primary client but the partner record as well? The secret is in the āIs joint? = Yesā field When creating a thread or case template, you have the option to set the āIs joint?ā field to Yes. As you create each task in your workflow you can then use a task outcome to update a field against the client record. In this example, I have set the task to change the category to Diamond. How else do you use task automation in Xplan to save you time? The Workflow Starter Kit has lots of ideas on how you can include automation in your workflow. I'd love to hear how you have employed this functionality in your business. š21Views1like0Commentsš¤Xplan Hint: Saving time with bulk client actions
