Our 6 Step Process

There will be six steps in creating and carrying out of your plan with our firm. It is very common for us to take action on multiple steps at the same time in order to carry out your plan in an efficient manner. The following description of each step will outline what you can expect to take place at each one of those steps:

Step #1 Consultation: During this appointment we will come to an understanding of your overall goals. Once you have agreed to move forward with our firm we will process your fee agreement and work with you on obtaining the necessary documents needed to complete your strategic planning. Prior to your next appointment you will receive your observations & understandings letter, which outlines the goals as understood from your consultation along with our observations of your current portfolio.

Step #2 Preliminary Recommendations: At this appointment we will go over our preliminary recommendations designed to help you get to your goals along with any questions you have regarding your observations & understandings letter. This will include our asset allocation showing your current portfolio and how your portfolio would look after our recommendations have been implemented. A copy of your recommendations and allocations will be provided prior to this appointment.

Step #3 Investment Education: During this next appointment we will go over investment education based on the recommendations made in the previous step. The goal of this step is to allow you to understand product and/or specific investment content and why we have recommended these in your overall strategic plan.

Step #4 Implementation: Once you have agreed to move forward with our recommendations we start the implementation process. This is the most exciting step because you get to see all of the changes taking place! You will be working with our staff on processing paperwork and making the necessary changes to implement your plan.

Step #5 Delivery: During this appointment we will deliver all new products that have been implemented as part of your strategic plan. We will also present you with your complete financial plan binder. The binder will include detailed reports based on the Conaway package chosen during your consultation. If you have elected to use the wealth management account your "live" access will be set up at this time.

Step #6 Ongoing Service & Education: The length of this step is determined by your Conaway package. It includes the ongoing monitoring and servicing of your plan along with an annual review. You will also be invited to our educational events, such as webinars and workshops. Our client appreciation event every other year is also included!

The on going service of your plan beyond your initial service term may be subject to additional fees which will be determined in your annual review.

Thank you again, and we are looking forward to working with you and your family.
