Regardless of whether the financial issue being investigated is simple or complex, within reason our priority is to try to obtain as much relevant information as possible and complete some financial planning calculations or “tests” first. Then if a product is required like insurance or annuity or an investment, then we will research products from different firms to compare features and costs in order to determine the most appropriate solution for you.
Tactical Account Management
First our Client Planner document should be completed. If you have existing investments that you want critiqued, then we’ll also need a copy of your most recent statement(s). We will produce a customized investment proposal for you to illustrate suitable investments which may include one or more of our recommended Tactical Investment Funds.

Retirement Income & Tax Planning
The process we use is through our program called “Your Retirement Map” ™. Click to read more about our retirement planning services. To be effective a retirement planning proposal should produce an after tax retirement income value in today’s dollars, considering each and every potential source of income in your future. Extensive fact finding is required in order for this service to be a success for you.

Risk Management & Insurance
For Family situations, we use our program called, “Estate Capital Management System” ™ (ECMS). This program will clearly identify the right amount of Insurance that is required for either spouse and will consider education funding needs and will determine if there is a retirement deficit for the surviving spouse.
For Business Owner’s, ECMS can be used as well, however the assets, liabilities and succession funding requirements, if any, would be added to calculate the correct amount of insurance.
