"I wanted to let you know that the cost of these from Horsesmouth has been the best marketing money I could have ever spent. I just received the copies that you printed for me, but I also had a PDF version of it as soon as I bought them online…

"I think so far I've given away close to 150… I've been meeting with every CPA, tax attorney, business broker, mortgage banker, and anyone else I know that could refer me clients, and asking them how many others in their firm could use this "cheat sheet"?

"One CPA asked for 15, so everyone in his firm that is doing taxes has my name, contact info, and photo close by them at all times… They can count on getting them from me every year going forward."

—B.E. Carden, Brentwood, TN

Dear Advisor:

The drama is over—for now.

Now it's your turn to calm clients and demonstrate leadership—sorely lacking elsewhere.

This is where Key Financial Data 2013 comes in.

For many years now, smart Financial Advisors have been sharing Horsesmouth's Key Financial Data cards with clients, prospects and COIs.

The Key Data cards are a calming influence in an otherwise topsy-turvy world. Why?

Because the cards quietly deliver what is true and real about the coming year's tax brackets, thresholds, limitations and exemptions. No scary CNBC analysts. No pitch forks and torches. No exploding heads.

The reason everyone loves Key Data is because it's a handy reference. Nearly all the key items that affect one's personal finances are contained in the card's easy to follow format, including:

  • Standard deduction & phase outs
  • Personal exemptions
  • Gift and estate tax
  • Medicare
  • Retirement plans
  • Social Security
  • Tax rate schedule
  • Capital gains
  • Education credits and deductions
  • Health savings
  • High income tax payers
  • Long-term care premiums
But unlike the past, things are different this year.

How to NewsJack the Post Fiscal Cliff Story

Here's how it works: You NewsJack the Fiscal Cliff right now.

Never heard of newsjacking? It's simple.

Newsjacking is a marketing tactic you've seen many times but didn't know what it was called. (We direct Horsesmouth Advisor/Client members to use it all the time.) It's about inserting yourself and your clients' situation into a high profile media event. Like the Fiscal Cliff hysteria the main stream media has subjected us to over the last 8 weeks.

How do you do that?

Simply by communicating with clients, prospects and COIs that you've monitored the Fiscal Cliff developments and are ready to work with them on what the changes mean for their investment portfolios during the next 12 months.

 
Personalize with photo and logo! 
The way we recommend you do that at Horsesmouth is by sending your clients, prospects and COIs a personalized, branded version of the 2013 Key Financial Data.

It's now updated with the new items approved by Congress and signed by the President.

All that remains is for the IRS to post the actual, final rates (a few which will likely differ slightly from what you've seen in the press because they involve projected inflation rates.)

The great thing for you about Key Financial Data is that you get a PDF version of the data right now, branded with your photo, logo and contact info.

You can post that PDF right on your website. Or you can put it in a link on social media or in an email.

And, of course, you can send the FINALIZED hard copy version to everyone once the IRS issues the final, last little details. (Probably within a couple of weeks.)

But that's not all.

Your Post Fiscal Cliff Campaign

Here's where you get a little extra revenge. In essence, you make the bitter Fiscal Cliff into something a little sweeter for you and your new business prospects in 2013…

It's also very simple and I encourage you to do this because not many do and you want to be the first in your area.

You mail a hard copy of your personalized version of 2013 Key Financial Data to all the CPAs and attorneys in your region.

I know quite a few advisors who do it. They uniformly say it's among the best marketing they do every year. Listen to what Advisor Bob Watral of Raleigh, NC says about this approach:
 
Having been in practice since 1986, when it comes to marketing, I have tried lots of things. I do not think I have gotten more mileage out of anything as much as I have out of Horsesmouth's Key Financial Data card.

I have lost count of the number of unsolicited 'Thank yous' and requests for more copies from CPAs, attorneys and other centers of influence. And now I have the ability to customize them with my contact information and my professional photograph. It's good to know that I am hiding under so many blotters on desks throughout Raleigh, NC.
 
So there you go. A simple, effective way to connect with clients, prospects, and COIs right now. Newsjack the Fiscal Cliff right now.

Other Referral Sources

If you're looking to build your referral network among local professionals in your community, here are two examples of what advisors are doing with Key Data:

Best Marketing Money Ever Spent

"I wanted to let you know that the cost of these from Horsesmouth has been the best marketing money I could have ever spent. I just received the copies that you printed for me, but I also had a PDF version of it as soon as I bought them online…

"I bought a laminating machine and the necessary plastic pouches and started putting them together in my office. (The machine & pouches bought on Amazon were incredibly cheap!) If it's laminated, you can't lose it and they just don't throw them away. It also gives it an expensive look, which carries more credibility for me.

"I think so far I've given away close to 150 and I still have the supply that you printed. I've been meeting with every CPA, tax attorney, business broker, mortgage banker, and anyone else I know that could refer me clients, and asking them how many others in their firm could use this "cheat sheet"?

"One CPA asked for 15, so everyone in his firm that is doing taxes has my name, contact info, and photo close by them at all times. One CPA I met with had a similar one from 2007 still in his drawer that I watched him throw away to replace it with my new up to date piece.

"My comment to them is that they can count on getting them from me every year going forward." — B.E. Carden, Brentwood, TN

The Most "Marketing Mileage" Ever

"Having been in practice since 1986, when it comes to marketing, I have tried lots of things. I do not think I have gotten more mileage out of anything as much as I have out of Horsesmouth's Key Financial Data card. I have lost count of the number of unsolicited "Thank yous" and requests for more copies from CPAs, attorneys and other centers of influence. And now I have the ability to customize them with my contact information and my professional photograph. It's good to know that I am hiding under so many blotters on desks throughout Raleigh, NC." — Bob Watral, CFP®, Raleigh, NC

7 Reasons to Use Key Financial Data For 2013 as Part of Your Client Communication Program

One common reason people hire a financial advisor is that they need someone to follow the important issues they can't or don't want to follow. That doesn't mean they don't want to know that you're watching important things critical to their portfolios.

Here are seven reasons to put Key Financial Data For 2013 into your client communication program now:

  • Because it's an impressive, easy-to-implement client communication program, perfect for kicking off 2013.

  • Because people expect their advisor to keep track of the changes and wrinkles in government rules and regulations that impact their personal bottom-line. (You build trust and demonstrate mastery when you regularly communicate with people around key financial data issues.)

  • Because it demonstrates your commitment to being a client-centered advisor by letting them know you're watching what's going on in government and how it affects their portfolio.

  • Because it inspires confidence. Even if clients don't pore over every table of Key Financial Data, simply receiving it from you reinforces your image as an informed, organized professional.

  • Because it shows you appreciate your clients. When you take the time to personalize your Key Financial Data cards and send them out to your clients, it also shows your clients that you're keeping them informed and that you appreciate having the chance to work with them.

  • Because it shows you're committed to being a "can-do, results-oriented" advisor. You don't let changes in government rules and regulations just happen and let your clients' CPAs deal with them later. You're on the case.

  • Because it shows your clients that achieving financial security and prosperity includes you watching things like Key Financial Data and thinking through how these rules and regs present new opportunities and solutions.
