Orion Advisor Services and Mineral Interactive Launch Advisor Prospect Portal
Provides advisors with customizable lead gen solutions to funnel prospects through unique onboarding processes

OMAHA, Neb., Sept. 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Orion Advisor Services, LLC ("Orion"), the premier portfolio accounting service provider for advisors, and Mineral Interactive, the leading digital design and marketing consultancy for advisors and advisor technology, today announced they have partnered to launch the Orion Prospect Portal at the inaugural Ascent conference. The Prospect Portal provides advisors with a fully customizable and efficient way to guide prospects through the onboarding and data collection process.

Orion's Prospect Portal enhances transparency and eliminates the tedious onboarding process for advisors and prospective clients. It offers a streamlined view of the prospect account activity, helping advisors efficiently guide prospects through all the important details required to identify risk, qualify leads, and collect all key information necessary for new account creation. Designed for each firm's unique workflow, the portal is customizable to the advisor's onboarding process, complete with custom branding and design that can be integrated directly into any existing website.

"Orion's Prospect Portal allows advisors to create an engagement journey specific to the needs of their prospect while communicating the exact messaging they want, when they want it. It sets the clear steps in the process to a prospect at all times, vastly improving the discovery process," said McLean Asset Management CEO Alex Murguia, Ph.D.

Distinct features offered by the portal include:

  • Personalized risk assessment. Integrated with third party questionnaires and industry-leading tools like Riskalyze, the portal provides embedded risk assessments and data capture, enabling advisors to efficiently measure suitability
  • Secure File sharing. To provide absolute transparency and accessibility, the portal enables clients and advisors to share documents and other important files with file sharing applications (Box, Dropbox, and Citrix Sharefile supported)
  • Balance Sheet Integration. The portal enables advisors to capture and richly display clients' net worth through a tight integration with Wealth Access, a multi-award winning intelligent aggregation platform that aggregates data feeds from more than 20,000 institutions
  • Open Source – Delivered through WordPress. The dashboard is powered by WordPress and can be integrated with an advisor's personal website. If advisors do not use Wordpress, Mineral can help them get a dedicated version of the prospect portal

"Orion's prospect portal coupled with Mineral's strategy provide game-changing levels of customization for advisors to communicate and prospect better. We are very excited to provide this to our advisors, as we are confident it will help them grow their business to new levels," said Shannon Spotswood, President of RFG Advisory.

"Mineral and Orion understand that advisor communication with prospects is critical. With the Prospect Portal, our goal is to allow advisors to better gate key content, communicate their onboarding process and engage prospects with many of the best-in-class advisor software solutions," said Mineral CEO Jud Mackrill. "The Prospect Portal is an exciting new solution for advisors that are looking to build a digital footprint and improve their prospect communication."
