Being a business owner means wearing many hats\u2013including areas like compliance, office &amp; operational logistics, and HR\/staffing that are new to many financial advisors.<\/p>\n<p>Allen explained, \u201cAs advisors scale their business, there\u2019s not enough time in the day for one person or a small team to handle all the additional operational responsibilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also noted that those duties pull advisors away from their true expertise: serving clients.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a business owner, I know the best use of my time is not paying bills\u2013it&#8217;s spending time with clients,\u201d he said. \u201cAt TSG, we provide the engine that allows advisors to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>TSG provides a roster of in-house personnel to address areas that fall outside of a traditional advisors\u2019 wheelhouse, allowing advisors to focus on those difference-making interactions with clients. Allen points to hiring a team of financial planners, as well as a Chief Investment Officer who leads an in-house team that executes trades as key moves in supporting TSG\u2019s advisors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s way too hard for an advisor to play stockbroker anymore,\u201d Allen said. Through TSG\u2019s internal team, advisors can shift those responsibilities to dedicated specialists, freeing up their time for clients and growth initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>As a practice affiliated with Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network (FiNet), TSG also offers access to a strong network of in-house specialists, including estate planning lawyers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese professionals would cost us $600,000 to $700,000 a year per person, because they\u2019re high-ticket professionals,\u201d Allen stated. \u201cBut they\u2019re free for us to access through Wells Fargo affiliates.\u201d TSG can also leverage Wells Fargo\u2019s wealth management capabilities, including lending services with relationship discount pricing through Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.<\/p>\n<p>When TSG adds more practices, their operational structure and deep bench of resources begin to free up advisors\u2013and practices can suddenly realize the potential they can unlock.<\/p>\n<p>Allen said, \u201cWhen advisors come to us and aren\u2019t wearing all the hats they wore at their previous firm, organic growth goes up significantly. They can be more efficient while focusing on the things that make them happiest\u2013their clients.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"ContentParagraph ContentParagraph_align_left\" data-testid=\"content-paragraph\">Independence doesn\u2019t have to mean doing it alone.\u00a0Evolve your practice and design your own destiny at FiNet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ContentParagraph ContentParagraph_align_left\" data-testid=\"content-paragraph\">Learn more here: <a class=\"ContentText-BodyTextChunk ContentText-BodyTextChunk_link\" rel=\"sponsored noreferrer nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wellsfargoadvisors.com\/joinwfadvisors\/independent.htm?cid=OB2600032829\">Independent | Wells Fargo Advisors<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"ContentParagraph ContentParagraph_align_left\" data-testid=\"content-paragraph\">Advertisement \u2013 For financial professional use only<\/p>\n<p class=\"ContentParagraph ContentParagraph_align_left\" data-testid=\"content-paragraph\">The experiences discussed in this article may not be representative of the experiences of other Financial Advisors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ContentParagraph ContentParagraph_align_left\" data-testid=\"content-paragraph\">Wells Fargo Advisors is a trade name used by Wells Fargo Clearing Services, LLC and Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network, LLC, Members SIPC, separate registered broker-dealers and non-bank affiliates of Wells Fargo &amp; Company.
