Howwow online: Outsourced Paraplanning - April 2017
By Paraplanners' Assembly
What's it all about?
For April's Howwow, our panel will be discussing setting up and running an outsourced paraplanning business. They'll share their experience, top tips, and cover the main points and issues that arise from outsourced paraplanning, such as:
- Things you need to think about before setting up your own business
- What it really is like to run an outsourced paraplanning business
- How to work on your own and not go mad!
- Staying on top of CPD
But that's not all. We want you to bring your best questions. Why? Because this is the equivalent to a surgery. You'll really get a chance to quiz the panel on the good, the bad, and the ugly of outsourced paraplanning.
It should be right up your street if you are thinking of setting up your own, working for, or if you already running an outsourced paraplanning business.
BUT, for all you through-and-through in-house paraplanners out there, don't rule it out. April's Howwow, will have plenty of transferable tips that you can take back to your team.
To join us make sure you click the 'save my spot' button.
When is it?
This Howwow online is on the Monday 24th April, 1-2pm.
We know we said they'd be every last Wednesday of the month. But sometimes we're going to have to throw you curve ball and change the date. Why? Because we want to bring you AMAZING panel members, and they can't always make Wednesdays. It's as simple as that.

Psst!
If you are thinking about this as a career option and want to keep it to yourself for now *checks over shoulder to make sure no-one is looking*. Here's what we suggest:
- Register (with another account if you already have one) using a pseudonym. That way you won't show as 'you' on the list of participants plus you can still join in the live questions and chat
- You can also send us questions beforehand and we'll put them to the panel anonymously. Email us here.
- And, remember the session will be recorded so you can always watch it in your own time
Clever hey? Fake glasses, noses and moustaches won't work. We tried it.

How does this Howwow Online thing work?
Save your spot by clicking the button on the top right. It's free, the only thing you have to do is register an account.
On the day of the Howwow just sign back in here. But, we'll also send a reminder email ten minutes before it starts.
What if I can't make it to the Howwow?
Just sign-in and view a recording of the session whenever it suits you.
Can I ask questions?
Yes! As many as you can throw at our panel. Plus, if you can't make the Howwow, book a spot and add a question beforehand, the panel will then answer it during the event.
Can I suggest a Howwow topic or be on the panel?
Absolutely, the more the merrier. Drop us an email.
Are there more Online Howwows?
You bet your bottom dollar there are, and on lots of useful topics for paraplanners. Watch past and/or register for any upcoming events here.
There isn't an upcoming Howwow listed, when will the next one be?
Sorry about that. We're just confirming the topics and putting together an A-Team panel for it. We do aim for every last Wednesday of the month, at lunch time (1-2pm for most normal folk), so you can join in while eating your sandwich.
Sometimes we'll throw a curve ball and change the date. That's because we want to bring you AMAZING panel members, and they just can't make Wednesdays. It's as simple as that.
Powwows vs Howwows - what's the difference?
Here's the Powwow lingo. Powwows are informal gatherings designed by paraplanners for paraplanners to exchange views, learn things, fix things and share things.
Got that? But there's more. Where Powwow gatherings are on a number of topics, Howwows are for those times when we want to focus on ONE topic in particular and, in depth.
Sometimes we meet in person, and sometimes we just like a good chinwag online. Enter Howwows Online.
You can find out more about Powwows or see a full list of all events here.
Actually, my question was on something else
Ooh, we like new questions. Just pop it in an email and send it on its merry way to [email protected].
One last question, what do you do with my details when I sign up?
Crikey, another good question! We’ll use your details to keep you posted on Powwow happenings. From time to time, this will include activities that our supporters are participating in that we think you’ll find interesting. We share information at an aggregate level with our supporters every now and then.
Please see our Privacy Policy here for details of how we will process your personal information.
