Our Process

We look at your financial situation comprehensively and holistically. The most important part of this process is listening carefully to your goals and concerns. We ask the questions that allow us to develop and implement a strategy designed to meet your current and future goals and dreams.

Through a needs-based consultation, Dan and Troy will work with you to determine which approaches might be appropriate for your personal situation.  At a high-level, the products and services include:

 

  • Insurance products to provide protection against unexpected life events
  • Investment products that help satisfy financial needs, such as saving for retirement or a child’s college education
  • Financial planning services* to prepare a strategy for addressing one or more financial, business or life-stage needs

*Financial plan recommendations can be implemented with the advisor of your choosing.  Implementation of specific products or services may result in commissions or fees outside of the financial planning fee.
