Getting Your Financial Life in Gear
Whether you are ready to meet a financial advisor early in life or a bit later, it is IMPORTANT to:
- interview 1-3 Certified Financial Planners® who are properly licensed and trained
- choose a financial expert who understands your unique goals and doesn't use a "cookie-cutter" approach to investing
- find a compatible personality
- find a professional who is passionate and knowledgeable about finances and investing options
- consider their fee approach and the value they bring to the table

Then we'll move on to our Planning meeting. A few simple steps will get you on the right road. Visit our New Client Process to see how we get started.
Planning Meeting
1. Let’s Organize
Let's collect your financial documents. Accounts everywhere? Inherited IRAs still stuck with their original broker? Nothing written down?
Fearful of the market? No estate documents? Life too busy? Does that sound familiar? Let’s get going, by organizing your finances and simplifying your life.
2. Let’s Make a Target
Now that your organized, let’s establish some goals. Let’s talk about family, aging parents, a home, college, loans and the good, the bad and the ugly.
And don’t forget about the fun!
3. Let’s Identify Your Options
You can keep it simple, be more aggressive or any style in between. A financial advisor can develop strategies that are effective in both bull and bear markets. There are a variety of financial products available from financial advisors.
4. Let’s Plan
Time to select the options that are appropriate for you.
Implementation Meeting
5. Let’s Implement
