Developing a financial plan
A critical phase of your financial planning journey. This is a multi-meeting process where we will consolidate your financial situation into a single, cohesive, picture.
This phase can be completed in either a standard, 6-month, or accelerated, one-month, timeframe.
Refining your course of action
Prioritizing your goals and creating a game plan. We will determine details like future dates and amounts needed to be saved along the way in order to meet them.
Once we’ve built your plan, it’ll be time to take action on recommendations to bring you closer to achieving your goals.
Maintaining your plan
This perpetual stage is commonly called “implementation and monitoring.” As your fiduciary, we’ll continue to keep an eye on your plan and develop a rhythm for meeting and reviewing your tasks multiple times per year.
