Culture and strong reputation among reasons that drew advisors to Ameriprise

Crane and Owen, who grew to manage $147 million in client assets, started evaluating options to move their practice two years ago. They explored a wide variety of firms and found Ameriprise was the best fit to help them gain efficiency so that they could spend more time working with clients and growing their business. In Ameriprise they found a large firm with a great reputation, vast resources and recognized and respected brand.

Reflecting on their decision, Crane said, “Ameriprise is first and foremost an ‘advisor friendly’ firm, meaning we have the company’s full support behind us as we go above and beyond for our clients. At the same time, we have the autonomy and flexibility to run our business according to our vision. They couldn’t be better partners in helping us serve our clients and grow our practice.”

Owen and Crane also found that Ameriprise delivered on what they wanted: a strong financial planning focus, top-tier technology and the opportunity to grow the number of advisors in their practice.

“Without question, Ameriprise has the best financial planning and technology stack in the market. Thanks to a more robust financial planning experience, I’m able to spend less time behind the scenes and more time with my clients. That, to me, is worth its weight in gold,” said Owen.

Crane and Owen are supported by Ameriprise Franchise Field Vice President Michael Barker.

Ameriprise has continued to attract experienced, productive financial advisors, with approximately 1,600 joining the firm in the last 5 years.1 Nine out of ten advisors who joined Ameriprise say the firm’s technology, financial planning capabilities and ability to acquire clients is better than their previous firm.2 To find out why experienced financial advisors are joining Ameriprise, visit ameriprise.com/why.
