Business Owner Advisory Services
Clients who own their own business have special needs when it comes to financial planning and management. For many business owners there is little difference between the financial opportunities and challenges faced in their business and their own personal financial situation. These needs change over the life cycle of the business as the company moves from startup to growth to maturity. Strong financial planning, addressing both business and personal opportunities, is critical. We see this most often when business owners consider retirement and face the tough decisions on how to best harvest the fruits of their labors as they contemplate the issues of transitioning the business to family members, other business partners or outright sale of the company.
