What You Should Expect From Me

WEALTH MANAGEMENT PROCESS


Discovery Meeting | No Cost

Your wealth management experience starts with two separate hour long discovery meetings We focus on what is most important to you, both financially and personally. We will look at all the major aspects of your financial life, including specific goals such as planning for retirement, estate planning needs, and future lifestyle desires. We will also address your time horizon, income and liquidity needs, and your current savings and investments. Together, we will define your personal definition of financial success and work with you to translate this into prioritized goals. We can meet in person or over the phone.


Financial Planning Meeting

After we analyze the information we gathered during our Discovery Meeting, we will run an analysis to determine where you currently are relative to the goals you want to achieve. We will then provide clear and concise recommendations on what you need to do to get on track. We will also evaluate and analyze your current investment portfolio to determine what, if anything can be done to better align your money with your goals. We will present our findings to you, in plain English, so you have a firm understanding of where you are, where you want to be, and what needs to happen to fill in the gaps. We will clearly spell out the opportunities for improvement to help you on your way toward success.


Implementation Meeting

For those clients who want us to manage their money toward their plan, within one two weeks after our financial planning meeting, we will meet for our investment implementation meeting. This is your time to ask us questions about the plan and gain clarity about your steps for the future. We will also deliver your custom investment policy statement. This document clearly spells out our investment management steps and will provide proper expectations going forward.  You will then sign paperwork necessary to implement the investment plan and transfer your accounts  to one of our custodians, Pershing.


Monitoring & Reviews

Once your investment plan is built and implemented, we will provide you with counsel on an ongoing basis and will be a valuable resource as you make the best use of your financial resources to lead a fulfilling life. We will monitor your financial position, communicate regularly, and make changes to your investment portfolio and financial plan as your life changes. We will also provide you with access to your personal wealth progress website so you can get real time updates on our recommendations and progress toward your goals.
