How  We Work With You

Our typical project timetable looks like this:

Day 1:  Initial Get Acquainted Meeting.  30-45 minutes.  Here's where we learn about your financial picture and your concerns.  Complimentary.

Week 1: Description of Services to be Performed, Proposed Timetable, Fee Quote and Client Agreement will be presented to you.  Here's where we tell you what we are going to do, how long it will take and what it will cost you.

Upon Acceptance:  Your Project begins.

After 1-2 Weeks: Interactive Presentation Meeting.  1- 2 hours.  Here is where we discuss the results of our work for you and present you with a written action plan of next steps you need to take to achieve your financial goals.   You will walk away with a written report of our work.

On-Going:  We often help with Implementation of the Action Plan
and/or with periodic monitoring of your progress and investment portfolio.  Fees for implementation and on-going services will be quoted separately at that time.

All fees are based upon a rate of $180 per hour.
