Pricing Model
We work behind the scenes to help your money work for you. It’s our passion to help you achieve your life goals and feel confident in your financial future.
But at the end of the day, we have to get paid too, and we’ve had many people ask us how we’re compensated.
So we figured we’d tell you.
There are typically three ways a financial planner is compensated for their time and expertise.
Asset Management Fees
We’ll get up to 1% of the investments we manage for you. Our financial planning services may be included in the fees.
Commission
Generally, with insurance products, the insurance company pays. We do an insurance needs analysis to determine the right plan for you, then we walk you through the process of applying. Other financial planning services may be included in the fees.
