STEVE: *2*”The Kirkby Wealth Advisory Group is a wealth management firm, meaning we do all of the things that help people invest their money, make their money grow, take care of all the things around their finances.(...) We see that as the base commodity of what we do, meaning it's an important tool, but what we really do is we help people achieve whatever's important to them,
basically help them make their dreams come true. Kind of corny, but it's absolutely true. We provide a multitude of services to clients. We've managed to create the team that covers off of each one of those.”

[*6* Steve talks and voiceovers a scene of Cam standing in the boardroom at a TV, on the TV is a chart produced by CIBC, two clients a man and woman are sitting at the boardroom table listening to Cam’s discussion. The clients are in shot and are nodding along to Cam’s presentation]

Next Cam is sitting at his desk and Chantelle presents him paperwork to sign, she takes the paperwork and walks off.
STEVE *8*: “We are a team. Our clients are getting all of us. Each role supports the other. The advisors providing the client feedback about what their needs are and then us making the decisions about what has to be done with their investments or with their specific accounts and then passing those instructions to Laurie and Chantelle and then having that trust that they're going to execute those things like they do, which is always great.“
[*9* Chantelle is sitting atop her desk talking, voiceover continues, then it goes to a scene of Laurie and Chantelle on a couch, you can see Brent and Tracey in the background. There is a big collage of pictures on the wall behind them, we don’t know of what yet. You see hands posting pictures on this large wall, you cannot make out what the wall is exactly yet]
CHANTELLE: *9* I think the reason it works so well is because everybody brings heart to this. Everything is sincere(...) and with the client's best interest at heart.(...) And I really think that people feel that when they come in.
[*10* Tracey is on screen and she is looking at a photo in her hands with a smile, you see the image she is looking at which is a picture of 6 people on a boat heading under a bridge. You see another picture being posted on the big wall that you have not yet seen. Tracey is now on screen and sitting atop her desk. There are framed designations behind her on the wall and artwork on the other side. Voiceover continues and people are looking at pictures and posting them on the wall. ]
TRACEY : *10* “Our relationships with our clients are lifelong. We start with one client and over the years, they then bring their children in because they know that they're in good hands with us. And then it becomes this generational family relationship that we have with our clients. “
[*11* Cam speaks directly to camera]
CAM *11*’That is what I think separates our team from everybody else.”
[*12* Jill is working at her desk and referencing a sheet as she begins to talk to Steve who is standing in her office doorway. It breaks back to the original client meeting and Jill is shaking the clients hand goodbye as they thank them.]
JILL: *12*” When we do a full financial plan and we come up with some solutions, I think it gives the client the ability to feel like, "Oh, I got that off my chest, you know, and I've got one more thing in my life taken care of." And if we can give that peace of mind to each client, then we've done our job.”
[*13* Tracey is talking at her desk and then it flashes to an image of her laughing in slow motion, she is now in a backyard scene with the other team members.
TRACEY *13* “The look on their face, the look of relief, the big hug I get at the end of a meeting, that's the success stories to me. And what makes my job feel so important.”
[*14* Steve is talking atop his desk, it then flashes to Brent in the backyard scene standing against green foliage with a big smile on his face]
STEVE: *14* “You're dealing with just regular people and just helping them make the rest of their life work better. And this is a pretty nice place to come every day.”
[*15* Laurie is talking and you see the team laughing and enjoying each other’s company in the backyard, it pans amongst them, everyone is very happy and smiley. ]
LAURIE *15*: “We have developed great relationships with all of our team members. And it truly is a joy to be part of the Kirkby team. Absolutely it is. It's about people.”
[*16* As Brent begins talking the whole team is huddled together for a team picture, everyone is smiling and embracing each other in the back yard with their arms around one another]
BRENT *16* “I pinch myself sometimes because I truly feel like with the clients I get to work with, the team I get to be surrounded by now, wouldn't trade it for the world.”
[*17*Image of Cam talking and then it goes to a shot of Brent smiling and posting something on a wall, he looks over his shoulder to smile at Tracey and you see he is posting the group team picture they took in the backyard previously, as the camera pans back you see a big wall of various pictures of people doing activities such as golfing, boating, traveling, at a lake, on horses… these are images of the Kirkby Team’s clients, living out their dreams, the team is smiling and pointing to pictures as the camera pans out.

Laurie tracey and Jill are looking at the wall, pointing, chatting and smiling. Steve then points.
CAM *17*:I think the biggest achievement that I feel through all of this is the relationship I have with the clients. I have clients that I've been dealing with since 1987. They are friends.(...) That's an achievement. Nothing's concrete, but yet we've been able to do our planning and tell clients, this is what you can expect over the next 10, 15, 20 years. And then we're able to now look back and say, here's what we told you 10, 15, 20 years ago. And here's where you are. That to me is really, really cool.”
