Common workflows
What a Virtual Assistant can handle for financial advisors, RIAs, and wealth-management firms
For financial advisors, RIAs, and wealth-management firms, start with recurring work that is easy to document and review. Give each workflow a clear source of truth, expected output, review rule, and escalation path.
Client Follow-Up
Send approved administrative follow-ups, request outstanding documents and record the next action while advice, recommendations and investment discussions stay with authorized professionals.
CRM Upkeep
Keep household records, activities, notes, workflow stages and next-review dates accurate in Redtail, Wealthbox or Salesforce so the team can trust the system of record.
Document Collection
Track requested forms and supporting documents, flag missing items and organize received files according to the firm’s access and retention rules.
Review-Meeting Preparation
Prepare administrative checklists, confirm required documents, collect open action items and assemble approved meeting materials for advisor review.
Marketing Administration
Coordinate approved newsletters, event lists, CRM segments and campaign logistics while compliance review and regulated claims remain with the firm.
Workflow Updates
Move recurring service tasks through the firm’s documented process, record exceptions and surface anything that is blocked or requires licensed review.
Reporting
Prepare operational reports on service queues, follow-ups, meetings and workflow status without presenting administrative reporting as financial advice.
Tools
Hire for workflow fluency, not a software checklist.
A candidate does not need every tool used by financial advisors, RIAs, and wealth-management firms. Prioritize the systems that matter in the first 30 days and ask what the candidate actually changed, checked, or owned inside them.
Redtail
CRM records, activities, workflows, review dates and client-service follow-up.
Wealthbox
Contacts, tasks, notes and recurring client-service workflows.
Salesforce
CRM administration, pipeline or service workflows and reporting.
Microsoft 365
Use Microsoft 365 for the parts of the workflow it actually supports, especially document collection and review-meeting preparation. In the interview, ask the candidate to show what they changed, how they checked the result and what they would escalate.
Google Workspace
Use Google Workspace for the parts of the workflow it actually supports, especially review-meeting preparation and marketing administration. In the interview, ask the candidate to show what they changed, how they checked the result and what they would escalate.
DocuSign
Tracking approved signature requests and completed forms.
Operating boundaries
Decide what the Virtual Assistant owns and what stays internal.
Give meeting scheduling and client follow-up a clear owner, then document what the Virtual Assistant may finish independently and what must be reviewed or escalated.
- Keep regulated advice and final recommendations with appropriately licensed professionals.
- Define client-data access and review rules.
- Document which communications require advisor approval.
