Katz “The power behind these very practical tools and tips is that they are rooted in Deena Katz’s solid track record of accomplishment. She matches the theory with the reality of the business.” —DALE E. BROWN, CAE President & CEO, Financial Services Institute, Inc. “Deena is a true leader in the financial advice industry who has helped build a hugely successful practice (Evensky & Katz), and who now helps educate future planners at Texas Tech University. Her experience-driven insights and perspec­ tives, along with various tools and solutions, are now available to you in her new book. Any advisory firm can benefit from it.” —TOM BRADLEY President, TD AMERITRADE Institutional “Deena Katz is one of the genuine icons in the independent advisory world. After making Evensky & Katz into one of the preeminent advisory firms in the country, she’s turned her knowledge and experience toward helping other independent ad­ visers run more efficient practices to better serve their clients. She is a valuable, and valued, resource for the industry.” —BOB CLARK Former Editor in Chief, Dow Jones Investment Advisor and Financial Planning magazines “Never has so much useful, practical information been compiled in one place for the financial advisory practice.” —BOB VERES Publisher, Inside Information newsletter www.bobveres.com “The chapter ‘The Killer Process’ alone is worth the price of the book. System­ izing your practice is one of the major keys to success in this business, and Deena gives you a step-by-step guide for doing exactly that.” —DAVID J. DRUCKER, MBA, CFP President, Drucker Knowledge Systems Principal, Virtual Office News LLC “Deena Katz continues to make important contributions to the business of fi nan­ cial advice. She brings years of practical experience in forming, merging, and growing a successful advisory firm, combined with insight she has gained as a teacher of financial-planning principals to college students. The result is a refer­ ence that advisers at every level will find helpful to have handy when trying to sort through critical practice-management decisions.” —MARK TIBERGIEN Chief Executive Officer, Pershing Advisor Solutions LLC 00_Katz_fm.indd i 11/14/08 7:24:58 AM 00_Katz_fm.indd ii 11/14/08 7:24:58 AM DEENA KATZ’S complete guide to Practice managemenT 00_Katz_fm.indd iii 11/14/08 7:24:58 AM Also available from Bloomberg Press Family by James E.
