2016 Winner: Schwab Advisor Services

Schwab Advisor Services is the winner of the Custodians ($25 Billion or More)- Practice Management category.

Company: Schwab Advisor Services
Category: Custodians ($25 Billion or More)- Practice Management
Initiative: Insight to Action Program – Creating a Referral Culture (CRC)

Client referrals are a key growth strategy for advisory firms, according to Charles Schwab research. That’s why Schwab launched the Creating a Referral Culture (CRC) program in 2015 as an addition to its Insight to Action consulting offerings for RIA clients.

The CRC program aims to help advisors take a more strategic and comprehensive approach to growing through referrals. During an eight- to 12-week consulting engagement, firms work closely with their relationship manager to design a referral strategy and a custom plan for firm-wide implementation. Schwab provides one-on-one coaching and leverages proprietary data and industry analysis to help participants lay a foundation for long-term success.

Since the program launched, 225 individuals representing 139 firms have successfully completed the CRC program/workshop.
