A Practical Playbook for Asset Managers, Wealthtechs, and Recruiters Using the AdvizorPro Chrome Plugin

Your team is already doing the work. Reading advisor bio pages and industry news. Researching advisors on LinkedIn. Managing email conversations. Preparing for conferences.

The challenge is not effort. It is friction. By the time you have toggled between tabs, searched for information on an RIA or wirehouse team, checked the CRM, and gathered enough context to decide if a prospect is worth pursuing, the moment has often passed.

The AdvizorPro Chrome Plugin helps reduce that friction. It brings data on financial advisors and wealth teams directly into your Chrome browser. Whether you are researching an independent RIA, a broker dealer rep, a wirehouse wealth team, or an aggregator platform, you can see their profile immediately including AUM, team structure, allocation behavior, and ETF usage without interrupting what you are doing.

This playbook shows practical ways distribution teams use the extension to qualify prospects faster and keep their pipeline moving.

What the AdvizorPro Chrome Plugin Actually Does

The Chrome browser extension identifies financial advisors and wealth teams across RIAs, broker dealers, wirehouses, and aggregators as you browse the web. When it finds a match, you can pull up their AdvizorPro profile instantly in a side browser showing advisor and team details, AUM, investment approach, recent allocation changes, client demographics, and whether they already exist in your CRM.

Whether you are looking at an independent RIA managing eight hundred million dollars, a Morgan Stanley wealth team overseeing two billion dollars in client assets, or a platform like Hightower with dozens of advisory teams, you get the same level of intelligence without leaving the page.

This kind of real time visibility reflects the broader shift from static prospect lists to live datasets, which we explore in Live Database vs Static Prospect Lists.

You can also add firms to target lists, tag prospects, create follow up tasks, and sync everything to Salesforce or HubSpot without leaving the page you are on.

It is not a replacement for your existing process. It is a layer that removes some of the manual steps that slow you down.

How Distribution Teams Fit the Extension Into Their Week

Here is how teams typically use the extension as part of their regular workflow.

Before meetings and conferences. When preparing for scheduled meetings or reviewing attendee lists for events like Schwab IMPACT or FutureProof, teams browse firm websites and instantly see profile data. You know team structure, recent product changes, and allocation trends before walking into the room. It does not guarantee a better meeting, but it helps you show up informed.

While reading industry news. As you read publications like ETF.com, InvestmentNews, or Citywire, the extension highlights advisors and firms mentioned in articles. Whether it is an RIA increasing fixed income exposure, a wirehouse team launching a new model, or a broker dealer rep shifting toward ETFs, you can click through to see if they align with your strategies based on allocation behavior, client profile, and adoption patterns.

When you spot someone relevant, you can tag them and add them to a list without switching contexts. It turns routine reading into a lighter form of ongoing prospecting.

On LinkedIn. When browsing LinkedIn profiles or company pages, the extension recognizes advisor and firm names and lets you pull up their full AdvizorPro profile. You can see firm details, decision maker structure, and allocation signals in real time. It makes LinkedIn more useful for prospecting while remaining just one channel among many.

Two Practical Ways Teams Use the Chrome Plugin

These are not revolutionary strategies. They are efficient workflows that make existing activities more productive.

Conference preparation that actually helps. Before an industry event, spend thirty to forty five minutes reviewing attendee information. Whether researching independent RIAs, wirehouse advisors, broker dealer reps, or teams at aggregator platforms, the extension shows profile data as you browse. Note which advisors have the right AUM, client type, and recent allocation changes that fit your product lineup.

Build a short prioritized list of who you want to meet and why. Not everyone. Just the advisors and teams where there is a clear fit.

You walk into meetings with context. You are not pitching blind. You can reference a Morgan Stanley team’s recent advisor addition or an independent RIA’s shift toward defined income strategies because you already know it happened.

Qualify LinkedIn connections faster. When you see an advisor profile that looks interesting, click the extension to view their full profile. Whether they are independent, affiliated with a wirehouse, working through a broker dealer, or part of an aggregator platform, you see AUM, team structure, allocation behavior, client demographics, and CRM status instantly.

If they are a fit, add them to a list and send a connection request that references something specific about their practice. You qualify people in seconds instead of minutes and act on opportunities while they are still warm.

What High Performing Teams Do Differently

The teams that get the most value from the extension share a few habits.

They act in the moment. When they see a qualified prospect, they tag them and add them to a list immediately. They do not bookmark firms to research later.

They segment as they go. Prospects are tagged with clear categories like active fixed income, thematic strategies, or international equity so lists stay organized and actionable.

They sync to CRM right away. Contacts, notes, and tasks are pushed into Salesforce or HubSpot immediately to avoid lost or duplicated data.

They use it as part of existing work. The extension is used while reading, emailing, and browsing. It is a layer, not a new task.

Getting Started With the Extension

Week one is about familiarity. Visit firm websites, check LinkedIn, and explore profiles when they appear.

Week two is about action. Start tagging prospects, building lists, and creating follow up tasks as you work.

Week three is about integration. Connect the extension to your CRM and ensure contacts and tasks sync properly.

Week four is about optimization. Review what sources generate the best prospects and refine your approach.

After thirty days, most teams notice they are adding more qualified prospects without dedicating separate time blocks, CRM data stays cleaner, meeting preparation takes less time, and outreach becomes more targeted.

Why This Matters for Modern Distribution Teams

Distribution is not getting easier. Generic outreach no longer cuts through. The teams that win show up with context and understand an advisor’s approach before sending an email or taking a meeting.

That same mindset applies beyond prospecting and shows up in areas like consolidation and firm strategy, as outlined in The RIA M and A Playbook: How to Evaluate Targets Using Data.

Whether you are targeting independent RIAs, wirehouse teams, broker dealer reps, or advisors affiliated with aggregators, intelligence matters. A five hundred million dollar independent RIA operates differently than a two billion dollar wirehouse team. Understanding that context before outreach makes a difference.

This extension does not do the work for you. It removes friction between finding a prospect and knowing whether they are worth pursuing.
