This is not a posting for everyone

Baystate Financial is one of New England’s most distinguished

independent advisory practices. We don’t recruit widely. We extend invitations

selectively to advisors who are already excellent and who want to become

exceptional. If you’re looking for a B/D switch or a better payout grid, we

check that box, but this is not about how much more you can make. This

opportunity is about what your practice can grow to and realizing your vision.

If you want to break through your pain points and truly scale your practice,

keep reading.

A NEW CHAPTER BEGINS

Baystate Financial is entering an exciting new era. Andrew Cleary

has assumed leadership from Dave Porter, bringing renewed vision, energy, and

direction to one of New England’s most respected advisory practices. A pivotal

moment and an exceptional time to join what comes next.

FEE-BASED PLANNING: The future is fee-based. Don't

get left behind.

Fee-based fiduciary planning is no longer optional. Every advisor

at Baystate is supported by a dedicated para-planner and case designer —

design. You focus on clients. We handle the depth.

✔Dedicated para-planner assigned to

your practice

personal and business planning

platform, exit, succession, deferred comp, retirement design

align your interests with your clients

LEAD GENERATION: We have a group of new advisors

to fill your calendar with qualified leads.

"Pre-set meetings with CEOs, CFOs, and business owners —

already engaged, already in your market. Show up, add value, close the

business."

✔ Joint-work appointments placed

directly on your calendar by our group of young advisors

PRACTICE DEVELOPMENT: We diagnose your practice and

This is not generic coaching. We do a hands-on practice analysis —

revenue gaps, service model, positioning, client segmentation — and build a

roadmap with you.

senior leadership

mapping

client base, demonstrated production

managed accounts, alternatives, DPPs, and advanced planning

something lasting
