How Does it Work?

Put Your Money Where Your Heart Is! provides comprehensive advice for clients who wish to bring their faith and values to bear on their financial and estate planning. The finished hardbound edition of the book will be a substantial and important work, estimated to be 350-400 pages in length.
 
Here’s how the process works:
  1. You choose what to write about from a detailed outline of topics within the subject matter of faith-based and values-based planning. (If there are other topics or subtopics in which you have a special interest or expertise, you can add those to the general outline.)
  2. You can write on one topic, or spread your contribution among several topics.
  3. Next you write 25 Questions that you frequently hear from clients (or questions that clients should be asking) on the topic(s) you’ve chosen, along with the detailed answer to each question that you would normally provide.
  4. The rest of the editing process is outlined in our Project Protocols.
The completed edition is presented in a Question-and-Answer topical format that allows consumers to review the planning topics in which they are most interested, and then use the book as an ongoing resource.
 
The attractive full color dust jacket includes the title of the book, with a byline that indicates the contributory nature of the project; combining the expertise of many professionals: From America’s Foremost Estate and Financial Planning Advisors.
 
But most importantly, the cover also features you and your practice individually. After the primary byline, the front cover will feature YOUR NAME in a larger font:
 
Featuring Contributing Author
John Q. Advisor
 
In addition:
  • the back cover of the dust jacket will feature your photo and short biographical information;
  • the inside front flap(s) of the dust jacket will feature information about your practice, your areas of expertise and focus, and complete contact information; and
  • every book includes a full Contributors Index.
