When to Think of Michelle Francis,
Financial Advisor

If you know someone who has ever said something like:
-
"I keep ignoring my finances because I get overwhelmed just thinking about it."
-
"I want to slow down or retire soon but have no idea when I can do that or how to prepare."
-
"My partner always took care of our finances. Now that I’m on my own, I don’t know what I should do."
-
“My small business needs to offer employees access to a retirement plan. Who can help me figure that out?”
​
They might benefit from working with a financial advisor like me. I'm different because I start by identifying the “why” behind my clients’ money before diving into money-related topics like income, cash flow, taxes, investments and retirement. I can with clients in person or virtually across the U.S.
​
Working with a financial advisor can help someone:
-
Increase their confidence when making financial decisions.
-
Talk through emotionally difficult life changes that affect money, like divorce or death.
-
Find a balance between growing their business and taking care of their personal finances.
-
Anticipate and prepare for life transitions like marriage, a new job, a career downsize or retirement.
​
Who is my ideal client?
I specialize in working with independent women and couples who are mid- to late-career working in a corporate leadership role or own a small- to mid-sized business. They're willing to talk openly about their life and money, want help making financial decisions and are ready to take action with their finances.
​
How am I compensated?
I charge a flat fee for comprehensive financial planning, an hourly fee for financial advice and an asset-based fee for investment management and employer retirement plans, instead of earning commissions from selling products. I’m independent, so am not affiliated with a brokerage firm, bank or insurance company.
