Zoom
Your First Zoom Meeting
You might be hundreds or even thousands of miles from us when we need to meet – or you might just be so busy that stopping by our office isn’t an option. Either way, we can have a meeting with Zoom that still gets us face to face, despite the miles. If you haven’t used Zoom before, it’s an easy platform. This video shows you everything you need to know to get started. We’re looking forward to “seeing” you in your next virtual meeting!
Zoom is a secure, web-based video-conferencing tool that allows users to meet online with real-time messaging and content sharing. At Kaydan Wealth Management, Zoom is our preferred tool to virtually meet with clients and colleagues.
Note: Zoom accounts are not required to attend Zoom meetings
e-Signature
DocuSign
We don’t have to sit down together every time there’s a document that needs your signature. Using e-Signature saves you time and allows us to send you documents wherever you are. Watch how it works and then get your mobile phone ready. You’ll need it for the first security step of the process when we send you a code to confirm your identity. Watch each step in the process and you’ll be ready to sign.
Security
How to use ShareFile
We’ve made it easy for you to securely share important documents with us using our Sharefile system. Watch the tutorial below to see how easy it can be.
How to use Secure Message
In today’s era of online communication, making sure we keep your personal information safe has never been more important. And thanks to cybercrime, sending that personal information through a traditional email could compromise your security. That’s why you may receive a “Secure Message” from our office. Instead of seeing a message from us when you open the email, you’ll get a link to a Raymond James page. There you enter your login information and can view the message and reply. Here’s a preview of what to expect:
Tax Documents
Where are my Tax Documents?
When you’re ready to do your taxes, you want to have all the paperwork you need. Did you know the quickest way to get your tax forms from Raymond James is through the Client Access portal? Watch where to go to find your 1099 or 5498. In a few clicks, you’ll have them in front of you and be ready to start preparing your annual tax return.
