He explains his process of conducting advisor searches for plan sponsors, emphasizing the need to understand pricing models, particularly asset-based pricing. Eric highlights a case where a plan's participant count increased from 3,000 to 3,600, affecting the per head pricing whereas record keeper's overall revenue was unchanged.
