Key takeaways

Supporting our advisors’ success has always been central to Simon Quick’s mission. As our firm continues its rapid expansion through strategic recruitment and acquisitions, we’ve recognized the need to complement our organic talent growth—which we’ve proudly fostered for over two decades.

That’s why we’re proud to welcome Christian Yoss, CFP® as our new Managing Director, Head of Client Growth.

Christian joins Simon Quick with more than 37 years of experience in financial services and advisor development, including senior leadership roles at firms such as J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, TIAA, and Fidelity. His extensive understanding of advisor practice management, strategic growth, and client engagement uniquely positions him to help advance our firm’s capabilities as we enter our next phase of growth.

Staying Cutting-Edge and Understanding the Competition

By bringing in talent like Christian, Simon Quick underscores its commitment to staying at the forefront of the financial advisory industry. We recognize that growth requires more than just a strong platform—it also demands a deep understanding of the competitive landscape. Christian’s tenure at major firms like J.P. Morgan and Goldman Sachs has equipped him with deep insight into what leading financial institutions genuinely offer, enabling Simon Quick to further differentiate itself from these larger entities by highlighting our personalized, client-focused approach and innovative strategies.

“Christian is someone who’s been ‘under the hood’ of our competition,” explains Mark DeLotto, Corporate Development Officer. “He understands not only what our competitors say, but exactly what they do. That insight positions him uniquely to guide advisors and their clients through effective due diligence, making clear why Simon Quick may be the right home.”

How Our Advisors Will Leverage Christian’s Expertise

Advisors at Simon Quick can now confidently position Christian as a resource who deeply understands the broader industry environment. His addition is a clear reflection of our commitment to setting incoming advisors up for greater success—giving them access to the type of high-caliber coaching and industry insight that’s typically only found at the largest institutions. Beyond typical business development, he offers an enhanced understanding of market dynamics and competitor practices. Christian will help advisors:

  • Clearly articulate Simon Quick’s distinct value proposition to clients.
  • Guide clients through comprehensive due diligence processes, clarifying the differences that set Simon Quick apart.
  • Continuously refine advisor strategies to meet evolving client expectations and industry standards.

Christian’s coaching background enables him to support advisors in attracting and serving more sophisticated clients with greater consistency and confidence in a competitive landscape.

One of the most distinctive aspects of Christian’s approach is his commitment to working directly with advisors in prospective client meetings—offering real-time guidance that is customized to each advisor’s style and strengths. Unlike many large firms that offer more generic or high-level sales coaching and training, Christian takes a hands-on approach. He not only understands each advisor’s individual practice but also actively helps navigate and support their prospect conversations, bringing a level of collaboration that is rare in the industry.
