Launching any business during a recession is tough—let alone an independent wealth management practice. When Jason Labrum went out on his own to found Labrum Capital Advisors, LLC, he knew his firm’s success would depend not only on its advisors, but also on how efficiently he could run the business. Operating in two southern California locations separated by 40 miles, the firm has kept in sync by using Morningstar Office. “Its real advantage is consistent information,” explains Labrum. “It would be very difficult to run an independent business without Morningstar Office.” SM Add Charts r Update Joan: As you know, the market has been rather volatile over the past year, but ement portfolio has definitely weathered the storm.

Labrum Capital Advisors started with several software providers, including one whose reports resulted in endless frustration. All were more costly than Morningstar Office, and less complete. “There were definitely limitations in the other platforms we were using that we have not come across with Morningstar Office,” says Labrum. “Other solutions don’t have anything that compares to all of its features.” Keep it simple. One administrator in each location uses Morningstar Office to manage the import and reconciliation process for the advisors, which takes as little as five minutes a day. Labrum says the platform makes quarterly billing a breeze. And the firm loads its model portfolios into Morningstar Office, making it possible to see which clients are invested in which models across the practice— and to quickly compare a prospect’s portfolio. Work at peak performance. Labrum Capital Advisors was able to transition to Morningstar Office with virtually no learning curve. “The tutorials are fantastic, and you can choose how you want to learn. With a fiveor 10-minute time investment, I can become a master at whatever feature I’m trying to use,” Labrum says. He also appreciates that Morningstar Office is web-based. “If I’m at home doing a bit of work, I can pull up a client’s updated account. That’s a big efficiency.” K Jason Labrum is founder and president of Labrum Capital Advisors, LLC. Centralized client management.
