Financial Advisors, Lenoir, NC

We understand how easy it is to get overloaded by the investor information available these days. It can be difficult to succeed alone, so you may need a guide for your financial journey. But how exactly do you choose a guide? Start by finding someone you’re comfortable talking to. Look for an individual focused on helping you achieve your goals, not meeting their quotas.

It’s OK to talk with someone, even us, and realize it’s not a great fit, so we offer a complimentary “Ask Us Anything” call before committing to anything. Get to know us. Find out if we are a fit for your financial goals. And if you’re struggling with the best questions to ask, here are a few to get you started.

There is no “right” way to work with an advisor; in fact, there are many ways you may work with your financial guide. But like any relationship, you need open, honest, and regular communication to help you succeed. One of the most effective approaches we’ve seen is using an advisor to help do the following:

1. Clarify your financial goals
2. Set regular checkpoints
3. Keep you on the right track

You may prefer to talk over the phone, on the web, in person, or a combination of the three. And we’re here to work in the way that is best for you. As you explore the most appropriate fit for you, we recommend using a three step process for creating a comprehensive plan.

Everyone defines “enough” differently. We believe that the key to a successful financial plan is determining how you define enough. In other words, how do you define the finish line? What does “success” mean to you? Our advisors assist you in defining your ideal end goal, then determine if you are on the appropriate path to get there.

But a great financial plan doesn’t focus only on retirement. We believe the journey should be as enjoyable as the destination, so we take other things into account as we develop your Signature Life Plan. 

We believe that a great financial plan is proactive, so our advisors help you protect what you have by discovering the insurance solutions you need. We help you with a variety of insurance needs, like

• Life
• Long-term care
• Disability insurance

As we work through your plan and determine the insurance coverage you need, we assist you in the areas of estate planning and executive benefits.

Choosing the right insurance carrier is overwhelming and confusing.
