It’s Not Just the Payout - It’s the Profitability
In this episode of Advisor Talk with Frank LaRosa, Frank is joined by Elite Consulting Partners' own Stacey Frank to dig into one of the most misunderstood aspects of advisor transitions: evaluating what actually makes a deal “good.” Too often, advisors chase the biggest upfront check without realizing the long-term financial implications hidden in the fine print. Frank and Stacey break down why it’s not just about the payout - it’s about total profitability over time.
