In the financial and professional services space, firms are quick to invest in branding, websites, or onboarding tools—but often neglect the single most scalable input for both retention and performance: client feedback.
At Select Advisors Institute, we specialize in helping wealth managers, accounting firms, and law firms implement automated client feedback surveys—and then take it one step further by connecting that feedback to professional development, career progression, and compensation systems.
Whether you’re an RIA seeking real-time insights or a law firm designing clearer associate benchmarks, Select helps connect what clients feel to how employees grow.
Turning Client Feedback into Strategy
Most feedback tools are either too generic or too complicated to implement consistently. We help firms select and roll out the best client feedback tools for financial services, with automation, customization, and privacy built in.
We’ve partnered with some of the best client experience survey companies and act as integrators—not vendors—so your survey tools actually get used, interpreted, and acted upon. That includes coaching teams on response frameworks, integrating results into CRM workflows, and embedding client feedback in performance reviews.
Because the best firms don’t just collect feedback—they operationalize it.
Benchmarking Your Client Experience Against the Best
We know what the best companies for handling customer surveys are doing—and we bring those insights to boutique and mid-sized firms looking to emulate institutional excellence. Whether it’s pulse surveys post-meeting, quarterly Net Promoter Score (NPS) prompts, or referral likelihood scoring, we align your tools with your client service model and your team's bandwidth.
We also help firms translate client survey data into strategic decisions—such as adjusting communication frequency, clarifying who owns the client relationship, or triggering proactive service interventions.
Feedback as a Career Driver
In asset management and accounting especially, most firms rely on tenure-based advancement. But that approach misses the opportunity to reward actual performance and client impact.
We help firms use survey results to guide asset management career progression frameworks—tying client satisfaction metrics into promotion eligibility, leadership tracks, and mentorship programs. The result? Junior staff not only improve faster, they stay longer.
In the accounting space, our accounting professional development frameworks integrate client impact, technical achievement, and interpersonal growth—creating holistic scorecards that retain top talent and elevate your firm’s client experience.
Law Firm Associates Need More Than Billables
For law firms, billable hours aren’t enough. Today’s associates want clear growth paths—and clients want consistency, responsiveness, and clarity.
We help firms build structured associate development programs, often anchored by direct and anonymized client feedback. This helps firms identify high-potential talent earlier, address communication gaps, and drive retention with real data—not just annual check-ins.
