How to Write a Strong Nomination Letter

1.  Identify the person you want to nominate and start the process months ahead of time.

2.  Read and make sure you understand the criteria for judging who receives the award.

3.  Get a copy of the nominee’s c.v. and identify ways in which she meets the criteria.

4.  If possible, involve the person you are nominating so that you can get accurate and detailed information about things that are and are not on the c.v.

5.  Try to identify something that you can use as a theme in the letter, or write a kind of “thesis statement” that sums up the person’s qualifications at the beginning.

6.  Organize the letter effectively, using specific details—numbers, facts, examples, anecdotes—to illustrate your generalizations.

7.  If possible, show early drafts of the letter to the nominee and other trusted readers to get feedback on how to improve it.

8.  Solicit letters of support from others whose reputations will help the nominee be considered favorably. Supply helpful information to the writers of supporting letters.

9.  Have someone check the final draft for typos and other mistakes before you print it and submit it.

10. If at first you don’t succeed, revise the letter as needed and nominate the person again at the next opportunity.

Will you consider hire them as my money manager?

Ken Fisher is credible and well regarded.

I’d suggest you ask Mr. Fisher’s office about their effectiveness in contrast to that of the competition.

Considering the buy-in requires a minimum seed of $500K, I’d expect anyone to put in the obvious legwork.
