How LPL Advisors Are Turning Estate Planning Into a Referral Engine

10 Oct, 2025 BY Snappy Kraken

See why top-performing LPL advisors are using estate planning to deepen relationships, uncover hidden assets, and generate more referrals.

Here’s what to expect from the latest webinar with Snappy Kraken + Trust & Will.

The opportunity is real

Estate planning isn’t just a “nice-to-have” service — it’s one of the most powerful growth levers available to LPL advisors right now.

According to Trust & Will’s latest data:

  • Advisors who offer estate planning see 42% AUM growth and 41% more referrals
  • 56% report improved client retention
  • 40% of clients say they’d switch to an advisor who offers estate planning

And our data at Snappy Kraken backs it up. Estate planning topics consistently rank among the highest-performing campaigns on our platform — driving more clicks, conversations, and conversions than nearly any other topic.

At the end of the day, estate planning isn’t about documents. It’s about creating conversations that drive trust, loyalty, and introductions.

LPL advisors are already seeing results

Estate Planning Case Study: Beratung Advisors (LPL Firm)

By integrating estate planning into their subscription model with Trust & Will, Beratung Advisors turned it into one of their top referral drivers.

When clients finish their plan, they talk about it, and they mention their advisor. That “talk trigger” effect has helped Beratung attract next-gen clients and strengthen multi-generational relationships:

“People don’t always talk about their financial planner, but they do talk about updating their Will. That visibility has driven referrals and helped us reach the next generation of clients.”
