How a Financial Advisor Managed Over 300 Clients with a Single Virtual Assistant
How a Financial Advisor Scaled to 300+ Clients Using Just 1 Virtual Assistant
The Advisor’s Growth Challenge
Financial advisors face a critical dilemma: expanding their client base while maintaining personalized service. Most hit a wall at ~100 clients due to:
- 22+ weekly hours consumed by admin tasks (scheduling, data entry, compliance)
- Client attrition risks from delayed responses and reduced face time
- Portfolio management strain as workloads exceed human capacity
(Table: Time Allocation vs. Client Load)
Clients | Admin Hours | Client Meetings | Strategy Work |
---|---|---|---|
50 | 10h | 15h | 25h |
100 | 22h | 30h | 8h |
300+ | 60h+ | Impossible | Neglected |
