Brian Fricke, financial and retirement planning expert, recently put together an Elite Professionals Group to eliminate the hassle and worry out of finding competent and trusted professional advisors – and a success story has already occurred.

Orlando, Fla. – November 18, 2010 – Brian Fricke, CFP founder of Financial Management Concepts and the author of “Worry Free Retirement,” recently initiated an Elite Professionals Group consisting of “Best in Class” professionals from various industries.  The purpose of this group is to have a trusted and competent pool of professionals that can be recommended to his clients on an as needed basis.

One of the members of the Elite Professionals Group is Orlando-based realtor and training expert, Andy Tolbert. (http://www.AndyTolbert.com)  Recently, Andy wrote about how one of her foreclosure interviews led to a reunion of a family that had been out of touch for several years!  Below is an excerpt from Andy’s blog post:

Wow, this is a story you probably don’t hear every day.  Yesterday I was contacted by email by someone stating she was a relative of someone I had interviewed about losing her house.  Through some back searching I found the article she was referring to, and it wasn’t me that had interviewed the lady, I just happened to be interviewed in the same article.  I never met her relative.  In several emails back and forth though, I explained that I had never met her, but did a quick Google search and sent her a link with some local contact info including an email address and place of employment (all public records here… not disclosing any secret info!).

Well, today I just got this email:

Andy

Pastor Nissi

Isn’t that unbelievable?

Out of the tragedy of losing her home, a single mom and her 2 kids are now reunited with their family because of the story that was written about her.

Brian points out that this kind of wonderful event is a testament to the power of networking and is one of the main reasons for organizing the Elite Professionals Group.

Members of the Elite Professionals Group include wholesale automobile purchases, insurance experts, mortgage expertise, business, estate and elder law, health and medicare supplement insurance expertise, and many more.

“Members of the Elite Professionals Group, meet monthly to keep each other informed of our respective areas of expertise so we can take exceptional care of our clients now and into the future,” remarked Brian.
