Recognition of Achievements
Loren Dunton Memorial Award —
In commemoration of Loren Dunton’s
achievements, the International
Association of Registered Financial
Consultants honors professionals who
have made significant contributions to
the industry. Dunton organized financial
professionals in the late sixties and with
their help created the financial planning
movement — including the formation
of associations, magazines, colleges,
university programs and foundations.
Dunton realized and publicly espoused
that the ethical sale of financial products
and the delivery of competent advice is a
noble calling.
“I have personally witnessed
his dedication and commitment
to the values that Loren Dunton
found so important to
our profession.”
— Steve Bailey, IARFC
Vice Chairman and Dunton
Award Committee Chair.

These very informative sessions are not just academic classes, attendees receive practical tools to take
home and apply.
Business Owner Consulting
Business owners are an underserved market that are looking for solutions to many
issues. We address items such as loan cancellation plans, buy-out or succession
plans, retention and incentive plans and more. We give you solutions and tools to
address their needs.!
Drip Marketing
Drip marketing warms up your prospect, attracts their interest in the topics
presented and builds their respect for your knowledge. Gradually Drip Marketing
will develop a bond with the prospect that motivates them to grant you an appointment to make a presentation.
Impact Branding
The competition for your clients is increasing. A strong brand projects your passion and commitment to clients and
prospects. Brand loyalty is reinforced by continued efforts to positively project a favorable image. You don’t have
to be a big company to promote your own brand. We help you discover what it is and how to build it.
IARFC Cruise Conference
Contact us for Sailing Itinerary
CE @ SEA™ — Join other financial advisors for a
leisurely, relaxing, and surprisingly inexpensive
cruise conference. This is a very different CE
opportunity! You’ll learn timely strategies from
our expert speakers in formal CE sessions; but
you will also have time to rub shoulders with
these speakers and other very successful
advisors in less formal times aboard ship. Past
attendees have told us that this networking and
informal learning is an incredible opportunity. It
will be an ideal time to re-assess your practice
strategies, discuss upcoming challenges, and
learn of different solutions. starr@IARFC.org

Statement of Services:
For over 30 years our firm provided comprehensive personal financial planning to individuals, couples, retirees,
business owners and corporate executives. Our planning for closely-held businesses included valuation and
business continuity, techniques to reduce taxation, key employee incentives, business plan and marketing plan
development. FPC pioneered in the development of planning software and the construction of plans for corporate
executives. We offered employer-sponsored retirement planning in an educational seminar format, followed by
private conferences with each employee and spouse to help them effectively use company benefits and coordinate
them with other holdings to assure financial independence. Since 1999 we have focused entirely on the training
and support of financial advisors through the continued development of the Plan Builder and Practice Builder
professional software programs. Because our services no longer involve the direct sale of financial products or the
preparation of comprehensive plans, we have assisted clients in obtaining professional services, insurance
coverages or investments from qualified advisors. (Mr. Morrow currently serves as the Chairman & CEO of the
IARFC and travels across the world establishing RFC Courses and lecturing to financial advisors.)
