I wish more advisory firms understood this before buying another platform.

More tools don’t automatically mean better technology.

Dessy Prasad, COO at Northwest Asset Management and RIA Innovations, explains why her team takes a more intentional approach to open architecture.

Instead of connecting as many tools as possible, they focus on choosing platforms that work together and create a better ecosystem for advisors.

The goal isn’t to have the biggest tech stack. It’s to make every tool count.

🎧 New on Next Mile — now live

You can teach the industry. But you can’t fast-track experience.

Grace Balestrieri, Senior Director of Client Experience Operations at Brighton Jones, points to a challenge every growing advisory firm faces: knowing what can be taught and what has to be developed over time.

Industry knowledge can be learned.

But judgment, critical thinking, and the ability to navigate real client situations come from experience.

That’s why building the right systems, training, and technology matters. They give experienced advisors more time to focus on the work where their judgment creates the most value.

What’s one skill you believe can only be learned through experience?

What if scaling your firm is actually about doing more with less?

Grace Balestrieri, Senior Director of Client Experience Operations at Brighton Jones, shares what “scaling with soul” means in practice—and why growth can’t come from simply adding more people, tools, and complexity.

The goal? Build better systems so advisors have more time for the relationships that matter.

What does scaling with soul look like at your firm?

Less siloed information. Better client service.

How does your firm make sure everyone serving a client has the full picture?
