Working With You
As your dedicated wealth management advisor, my role is to craft a personalized financial strategy that aligns with your unique needs. Through my experience working with clients, I have developed a step-by-step approach to service:
1. Introduction and Discovery Meeting(s)
Our relationship begins with an initial discussion aimed towards getting to know you, your lifestyle, and future goals. We review your current financial situation and develop strategies that can help you achieve the financial outcome you envision.
2. Financial Plan Presentation and Discussion
Financial plan presentations map out essential factors that play into financial success. Examining all relevant financial information provides a holistic approach which helps ensure a comprehensive financial plan.
3. Actionable items and Next Steps
After the financial plan presentation, we will follow up regarding our analysis and recommendations, which may include adjustments to your financial plan and investment allocation. We will also establish a time line and prioritize key goals.
4. Implementation Meeting
The implementation meeting focuses on creating prospective strategies custom designed for your specific needs. Recommended changes could include logistics, tax impact, asset allocation adjustments, and saving/benefit modifications.
5. Ongoing Monitoring, Tracking and Adjusting
