19. A FEW POINTERS – LESSONS LEARNED
• Many successful Voyant users embed the software into their FUNDAMENTAL
client process rather than offer it as an “optional extra”
• It is more than “cash flow” – it is the clients’ “Financial Master Plan”
• It is a presentation platform – use it collaboratively and interactively with the
client; prepare by creating “What If’s” appropriate to the client’s needs, goals and
aspirations
• The REAL value doesn’t reside in a printed Financial Report – no one is going to
be “wowed” by a 60 page PDF of charts and lists
