Deal Timing

Aug 8, 2007 11:50 pm

Can some of you guys share your experiences with the turnaround of deals from initial meeting to close to trading?  Mine turnarounds tend to vary substantially and I think this might be an indication of a more deeply seeded problem with the way I conduct my business.

I am looking at two different prospect types:

The money-in-motion candidate (rollover, cash to invest, etc)

and

the already got a mediocre advisor being ACAT'd

Every deal's different.  Keep the pipe full or you'll die.
