After a 2018 cash scare, Scott MacKillop got a $1.5 million lifeline and -- boom -- RIAs rewarded his flat-fee TAMP with 1,000% AUM growth in 35 months

I’ve known Scott for decades now and he is a fighter for what he believes in and for helping advisors to succeed. It’s great to see the good guys win after a focused effort of hard work and entrepreneurship. Advisors respect that initiative and live in that frame of mind most every day.
