Illustrative client example

Three days to decide.

A client plans to retire in June. Then their employer changes the buyout terms and gives them three days to sign. The client is ready to sign based on the payout. Their advisor asks when the employer’s health coverage would end.

The client asks HR for the coverage terms in writing before signing. They and their advisor agree to review the answer together before the deadline.

What the client could see

What the advisor noticed
The payout was clear. The end date for employer health coverage was still open.
What changed

What they could point to
The written request and an agreed review before the signing deadline.

Where Advisor Alpha comes from.

Competency, character, and concern shape the way you guide clients. Tangible Alpha is what clients can see when you put those qualities to work through a process you can repeat.

Competency

Spot the missing coverage terms and explain how they affect the retirement decision.

Character

Say plainly what still needs to be verified, even when the deadline puts pressure on everyone.

Concern

Ask what a gap in coverage would mean for this household and stay involved through the decision.
