Advice documents by the plan. Support staff by the day.

Five roles, each staffed by people who have worked inside Australian advice practices. Most clients start with one and add others as the practice grows.

Paid per plan

Paraplanning

Advice documents drafted in your templates, quoted before we start, and returned in two business days for a standard case.

Each case is quoted individually and you pay per document, so cost moves with your advice volume rather than sitting as a fixed salary. Every file goes through our 54-point vetting check before it comes back to you. That check covers completeness and consistency; compliance approval remains with you and your licensee.

What they'll handle for you

  • Statements of Advice and Records of Advice in your templates
  • Strategy modelling: contributions, pensions, transition to retirement, debt and cash flow
  • Product and platform research against your approved product list
  • Insurance needs analysis and replacement product comparisons
  • Aged care and estate strategy papers
  • Files built the way your licensee's vetting team expects to see them
Paid per day

Implementation and file preparation

Preparing the file before the paraplanner starts, and carrying the case through to in force once you have signed off.

Implementation and file preparation account for most of the administrative hours in an advice practice. Our implementation officers collect the information, run the product research, obtain quotes, lodge the applications and follow each one through with the provider until it is complete. Every contact is recorded in your CRM.

Paid per day

Client services

A dedicated client services officer for your practice, working set days each week from two days.

Our client services officers have held this role in Australian practices before joining PLTCo. They work inside your CRM and your email, follow your file standard, and manage the day-to-day contact with clients and product providers between review meetings.

Insurance and investment admin

New business, underwriting follow-up and policy administration, handled from application through to in force.

They manage outstanding requirements, alterations, claims paperwork and fund transactions, and they follow each item through with the provider without needing to be prompted.

Two pricing models

Advice documents are priced per plan. Support staff are priced per day. Many practices use both.

Where the responsibility sits

For your licensee's due diligence.

What we do

  • Draft documents based on your instructions
  • Research, projections and data entry
  • Admin, implementation and government paperwork

What you keep

  • Choosing the strategy and the products
  • Deciding the advice is right for the client
  • Reviewing, approving and signing off

We don't hold a financial services licence and we don't give financial, credit or tax advice. Our people never use a client's myGov login, never present themselves as the client or the adviser, and act only within the written authority a client has given.

What we mean by two days

Two business days is the standard turnaround for a straightforward case. The clock starts once we have everything we need from you and stops when the first draft lands back on your desk. Business days, Australian time. Your review time doesn't count.

Complex and specialist cases take longer, and the timeframe is confirmed when we quote, before any work starts. Where we need to come back to you for information, the end-to-end time is typically five to ten business days, most of it spent waiting on third parties rather than drafting.
